Hi, wonder if anyone had some ideas for how to equip and play an augur?
What is best, what is most fun, what suits the character of the Augur best, etc?

Since she gets to reroll to-hit rolls, the best setups would give her help to-wound, i.e. increase her strength. So a flail, or even better (but costlier) would be two sigmarite warhammers. There isn't a whole lot of variation in the Sisters of Sigmar warband list, so I'm not sure how "fun" you can get. For some reason GW gave her 2 dagger, so maybe that's what "suits the character of the Augur best."

Unfortunately, she can't use any missile weapons besides the sling, and without combat skills, strength skills, and armor, she's woefully squishy in combat. This makes her hard to keep alive to use her extra exploration roll.

Yeah, flail would be quite nice actually!
The sling is nice though, since her re-roll.
My current Augur uses the S.WH/Steel W. combo. Which is nice though costly, and feels a bit heavy. If it weren't for the strike last, a two handed sword would go quite well with the character - kind of Jean D'arc martyr style, I'm thinking kind of Emperors champion from the Black Templar Marines...

I was thinking of ordering this model and converting it to a nice Augur, what would suite her?

Ooooh. A dangling flail with shaft held horizontally would look amazing on that model. She looks so serene until...

Yeah, I was thinking of her holding it just in one hand though. Kind of a serene meditation pose (between butchering foes).

Yes, I was thinking about that as well. Maybe a sling in the other hand... or a hand, gesturing with thranquility. ^_^
