In the grim darkness of the far future, only the faithful are rewarded.<br>
The Sacred Rose aspire to be the unyeilding golden light. They are loyal, unflinching and remain calm in even the most dire of times, and act as beacons of light for all Imperial forces around them helping them rally and find their faith in the Emperor when it has all but vanished.<br>
On the tabletop, they are defensively disciplined and more importantly replacing used miracle dice like Command points (the broken not once per turn way). <br>

'''Orders Convictions - Devote Serenity''': Overwatch on a 5+ and never lose more than 1 model on a failed LD test. Additionally, whenever you use a miracle dice for an act of faith, roll a D6. On a 5+, gain a miracle dice.
*Consider using a 'sacrificial' Martyred Lady screening detachment (i.e. Vanguard of Dominions)for your army to help fill up your miracle dice pool.
*Celestian squads have the "Exceptional Proficiency" stratagem allowing you to re-roll your hit (~55% hit chance now) & wounds rolls for your 5+ overwatch.
 
'''Warlord Trait - Light of the Emperor:''' When you perform an Act of Faith with this Warlord, do not roll for the Devote Serenity Conviction. You automatically gain a Miracle Dice.
* In short, your warlord will always be using a miracle die and returning a miracle die. You should do so every turn, even if its just to 'advance 2" ' because you are basically re-rolling a dies' results FOR FREE. (BTW, nothing in the rules forces you to move anywhere when you declare an advance)
**Combo with "Vessel of the Emperor's Will" stratagem, earn TWO Miracle Dice... 

'''Relics - Light of St. Agnatha:''' Replaces a Brazier of Holy Fire. -1 to Leadership of Daemons within 6". Does the same thing as the Brazier- when firing during the shooting phase or on overwatch may roll a dice and on a 2+ it does D3 mortal wounds to target unit 12" away, D6 to Daemons- except this one you can <i><b>discard</b> a Miracle Dice to keep it lit and able to be used again.</i> Fizzles out permanently if you don't spend the miracle die.
*Great way to dish out mortal wounds.
*Would combo well with "Light of the Emperor" Warlord Trait above... except you can't because "<b>discard</b>" isn't the same as "performing an Act of Faith".  

'''Stratagems - The Emperor's Judgement (1 CP):''' Pick a unit that is firing Overwatch or chosen to shoot during the Shooting Phase. Unmodified hit roll of 6+ for a Bolt weapon gets an additional hit. 
*Pass... you just aren't going to have enough 'Bolt' shots to be able to capitalize on the exploding 6's. Save your CP for better things. Save your miracle dice for better things. 
*(sigh) Combining with "Blessed Bolts" sounds good... but again its 1CP to <i>MAYBE</i> net 1-2 more bolt hits. Now you want to double down and spending another CP? May the God Emperor bless your shooting.

'''Tactics'''
*Spam "Light of the Emperor" Warlord Trait + "Vessel of the Emperor's Will" stratagem combo.
**Consider giving "Light of St. Agnatha" relic as well for some sweet sweet 12" mortal wound action 
*Use Battle Sanctum terrain (50-Pts ea, 3 for 150-Pts).
**Note - you only get 1 miracle dice per turn regardless of how many sanctums you have on the board. However, multiples does mean that you don't need to remain stationed in one building all game 
*Use Cheerleader Canoness (ideally ON a Battle Sanctum).
*Use Incensor Cherub trick to capture extra miracle dice.
*Take "Light of the Emperor" as your Sacred Rites. Don't forget roll for morale "every turn you take a casualty", TWICE!
*Consider using a sacrificial Martyred Lady detachment.
