I feel that this is a reasonably solid insight into the overall aesthetic direction of the new Sisters of Battle range.

Alternately, Redemptionists for Necromunda.

Good.

I like how the flamer and the torch on the backpack seem to have the same fuel reserve. It implies the giant fucking thing, that’s longer than anyone else is tall, is secondary to the chainsaw. I love it.

Love this model. Shame the priest looks boring and generic though. Becuase this looks fantastic.

Btw this is how sisters of redemption (the two handed chainsword ladies) should friggin look.

I’d get two dozen if they looked like that, I swear. I really like this model and need one for the Inq killteam like whoa.

I always figured a Stubber was like an RPK or squad level machine gun based on how it was used/carried around, though everyone kind of treats them like an old Gangster Tommy Gun based on how there’s this weird fascination with them by certain characters but an Autocannon was like an M2 or even a 20mm WWII era anti armor gun like the Solothurn 20mm but with a faster rate of fire

At this point I’m not even entirely convinced some autocannons can be truly considered two-man-portable squad support weapons rather than light artillery;

Heavy Stubber covers everything from light machine guns and squad automatic weapons like the British LSW, Belgian Minimi or German MG-3 to mounted heavy weapons like the Browning M2, Russian NSV or the Maxim Gun.

Autocannon runs the gamut from 20mm up to 75mm and simply refers to magazine-fed rapid-fire large calibre support weapons. Examples could be a QF Pom-Pom gun or 40mm Rarden cannon.

The SMG equivalent is the Autopistol or Autogun, which covers everything from Micro-Uzi equivalents to battle rifles like the FN-FAL and assault rifles like the AK-series. HOWEVER crucially ‘auto’ weapons fire caseless ammunition, and if they fire cased ammunition they are instead…

…stub guns, which covers literally every personal firearm currently in production that uses cartridges, magazine fed or not.

Hope that helps, @a-40k-author

Fits with the way I’d identified things previously in writing, though I didn’t realise the difference between autoguns and stubguns was the caseless ammunition, so that’s interesting.
