Perhaps I am missing something, but I cannot understand how the cost of the
Battle Sisters can possibly be justified. The marines are the same as or
better than them in every category; Battle Sister infantry is _just worse_
than Space Marines. I think a more reasonable price would be 11 points;
compare them to orks. The sisters have one better armour, but half the
range, and stubborn is only worth one or two points.
