@CadenceV2: Do you have any info on the Sisters Of Battle? Witchunters is basically the only Codex in 40k I haven't read lol.
I'm just curious as to how they're created. Do they have enhancements? I know women can't be turned into Space Marines due to the procedure only syncing with the Y chromosome or some sh*t like that but do they have anything else? Or are they just really well trained?
Heya :-)
The info @CadenceV2: posted is good. The 3rd edition Witch Hunter's codex has some of the best art and fluff in my opinion.
I'll summerize some of it for you to answer your questions ;-)
The Adepta Sororitas are not created so much as trained. Usually they are selected from the Sholastica prodagenia, which are the schools for the orphans of Imperial heroes (Of which there are many). The females who show the right aptatude are often sent to join one of the branches of the Sisterhood.
Orders Militant: This is the one that everyone focuses on, because they are the ones who wear power armor, carry bolters, and fight. They are the militant arm of the church, and are often called on by Puritan Inquisitors for their skills.
They do not have standard enhancements, to answer that question. Only the space marines get the geneseed enhancements. Some Sisters might have cybernetic enhancements, but its not standard.
They are well trained, and very well equipped because the church is the wealthiest organization in the galaxy. There's also a lot more of them then there are space marines.
Orders Hospitaller: They know a lot about medicine, and so forth. Probably the only galactic medical organization in the Imperium. Funded by the church they are probably the best equipped too.
Orders Dialogous They study languages and so forth. They are some of the few people allowed to study xenos texts, because they are considered pure enough to not be corrupted.
Orders Famulous Believe it or not perhaps the most powerful and important group. They live with and help raise the children of Imperial nobles. This helps to ensure that they nobles stay loyal, and are not lead down the path of heresy.
