I enjoyed the direct writing style, the rules were clear and easy to grasp. This ran out the box with little difficulty, though I would appreciate a glossary for key words. There were a few times where looking up a gameplay term using control F still didn't lead me to a clear definition and I had to root around.
The greatest success here was marrying the Resistance System beautifully to the "GRIM DARKNESS" of the 40K fiction. There is an inevitable, grinding tragedy to this game that just hits that exact, beautiful tone that makes everything Dan Abnett's ever written so darn good.
This is really cool! Narrative games in a 40k setting seem really underexplored atm and this is just what I'm looking for. I'm putting a game together with some friends as we speak. I've noticed that the character keeper spreadsheet isn't totally converted to this system, it seems to have content from Heart which hasn't been updated yet.
Hi! That's so awesome, I love to hear that! I would also love to hear how your game goes.
I've uploaded "Lex Ecclesiastica Character Keeper v2.xlsx", which you should have access to. It hides all the data-only sheets and fixes a few remaining bits of text from Heart (like the Resistances on character sheets 2-4)
I'm really excited about this, I love the Sisters of Battle and I've always wanted to play one! I'll try my best to adapt the game for solo play, then I'll add a proper review. For now I just wanted to thank you for creating this game.
I'm very excited to read solo rules for this! If you write/publish them you should definitely include them in the inevitable Lex Ecclesiastica jam I'll eventually do.

Played a one-shot of this over the weekend.

Thanks for the fun.

Another Hipólita classic
Haven't gone through it yet, but I am already a HUGE fan of this just by what I am reading in this page!
