Secret Sisterhood Core Squad

This multi-part kit includes the supported files to print the core squad of the Secret Sisterhood faction. It consists of 69 unique pieces that allow for a very high amount of build options, covering all sorts of gear, weapons and poses so that multiple squads can be printed through a wider collection without much repetition.

Parts
- 10 bodies in different poses and with a variety of iconography and accessories.
- 3 different bare heads.
- 1 hooded head.
- 3 helmet heads (closed visor, open visor, and fully open mask).
- 1 masked head.
- 4 bolt guns with ammo belts being held in both hands.
- 4 bolt guns with more traditional sickle magazines being held in both hands.
- 2 bolt guns being held in a single hand, one available with ammo belt or ammo mag and the other only with a mag.
- 2 storm bolt gun poses (both with dual belts or magazines).
- 2 flamethrower poses, one available with or without fire special effect.
- 2 thermite gun poses.
- 1 heavy bolt gun.
- 1 poseable bipod for the heavy bolt gun.
- 1 heavy flamethrower.
- 1 multi thermite.
- 4 different backpack designs: one that connects to bolt guns with ammo belts (and the storm variants), another that connects with the heavy bolt gun's larger ammo belt, a fuel backpack that connects with the cables of the heavy flamethrower or the multi-thermite and a basic backpack that can be used for any other weapon.
- 1 simulacrum signum consisting of three floating servo-skulls that is compatible with any of the above backpacks.
- 2 empty pointing arms.
- 1 arm with a knife.
- 1 arm with a grenade.
- 1 arm with the infopad extended.
- 1 arm with the infopad extended and a bolt gun hanging from a strap.
- 1 arm posed to be tapping the extended infopad.
- 1 spare bolt gun.
- 1 spare bolt sidearm.
- In addition to the above, there is an assortment of options designed for the unit's sergeant in particular:
- 2 relic sword poses.
- 2 condemnor sniper rifle poses.
- 2 bolt sidearm poses.
- 2 flamethrower sidearm poses.
- 5 different gun hounds that can be used to represent combi-weapons or other sidearms/ pistols: melta, flamer, flamer with fire, plasma or empty (for melee options).

While it is worth noting that not all arms are compatible with all the bodies (particularly the bolt gun ones which have a stock) because of how the pauldrons are placed, they should still fit most of the poses. Because of how they are designed it is quite easy to dry-fit before gluing them so you can make sure you get it right.

Furthermore, any of the above parts can be mirrored for even more variety, which can be useful if you plan to print multiple squads or for even more sergeant loadout options. Do be aware that all skirts and hairs are flowing in the same direction to give the unit a sense of cohesion, which would stop being the case if mirrored. Additionally for weapons that connect to a backpack, the backpack also needs to be mirrored if you mirror the weapon (though you should be able to mirror the bodies without having to mirror the weapons).

The kit is designed with 32mm bases in mind, but they are not included in the files so you can use whatever theme you want. If you so choose, I have some flat ones available for free in my profile.

While this kit is based on my original Silent Sisterhood designs, the parts are NOT compatible with each other, as the scale and joints are different. They are intended to represent the evolution of the faction into something new, and hopefully reflect how my skills have improved over the years.

Lore titbit:
The Silent Sisterhood failed. Despite their overseeing, the Lost Legion still rebelled against mankind and had to be purged. But the purge also failed. For while their spine was broken, the Lost Legion survived, the shattered remains of their fleet escaping into the darkness of the void. And with such a perfidious enemy, failure was not an option.

With their order reborn as the Secret Sisterhood, they now fight an enemy the galaxy does not know about. A foe that, officially, doesn't even exist. But the Lost Legion is as real as the foul sorcery they wield, and the Sisterhood has kept training generation after generation of extremely elite warriors to hunt them down until their shameful survival is finally remedied. The dogma and fanatic fervour that now taints humanity is anathema to the Secret Sisterhood, as they are still firm believers of the imperial truth, even after millennia of waging their war in the shadows. Rather than rely on miracles or faith, they prefer military discipline and top of the-line-gear.

They are not the emperor's hammer, nor are they his shield. They are his sharpened dagger, hidden from sight, but always ready for the kill.
