Before the fighting begins, the Sisters of Battle kneel in prayer,
offering their thanks to the Emperor and asking for His protection and
guidance. The Battle Sisters are invigorated and emboldened by their
prayers, instilled with grim courage and determination to overcome their
foes.

Any Sisters of Battle infantry units (ie. not vehicles) may take part in
these Sacred Rites at the start of a battle. For each unit, roll a dice
on the Sacred Rites table to see what effect their prayers have. Higher
ranking members of the Adepta Sororitas inspire greater acts of selfless
sacrifice and dedication, and so may add a bonus to the dice roll, as
listed below (only apply the highest modifier)

Character Sacred Rites bonus
Canoness +3
Celestian Superior +2
Veteran Sister Superior +1

Note: For a Canoness or Celestian Superior to lead a squad in the Sacred
Rites, the character must be set up with the squad at the start of the
battle.

If the character leading the squad in the Sacred Rites subsequently
leaves the unit, any benefit from the Sacred Rites is lsot for the rest
of the battle- the unit will think they are being abandoned by the
Emperor! Note that this does not happen if the character is killed
whilst with the unit- they become martyrs! The unit also loses its
Sacred Rites if another character takes over leadership of the unit.

The results of the Sacred Rites apply to all members of the squad and
any characters who start the battle with them, including the character
leading the Sacred Rites.

Sacret Rites Table
