What's the opinion on Kill Team? I guess is it the new

>>50972513

I think its fun I cant interchange what armies I play I switch off between a Space marine kill team and ork kill team and I dont even own full armies.

It's basically XCOM using the rules of 40k. If that sounds awesome to you, pick it up, you'll enjoy it.

Especially if you plan on playing as Deathwatch

>>50972528
any advice on ork boyz besides LOTS OF BODIES, i am thinking about mixing deffkoptas with nobz(PK and big choppa) and normal slugga boyz as meat

>>50973480

I was actually gonna recommend defiantly adding some Deffkoptas though my list had units I like since I have some Kommandos and slugga boyz.

The nobz might be a good idea though I just fucking love kommandos

>>50972513
This set should just be called "Tau Win" the game.

>>50973540

Yeah I dont understand the reason for one tactical squad.

I mostly use an Assault Squad and Scouts for Space marines painted in Raptor colors

>>50973520
i am actually like totally new to 40k.
Are Trukks a must? I mean orkz are fairly squishy and they work best in assault.
Also what do you think about burnas?

>>50973095

A few months ago. It's pretty awesome if you like playing tacticool armies.

You can find it here: mega:///#F!Wl5DAbCb!TYxZG4CgX_x-NJu7JBwbZQ!2tgBUTYI

>>50973584
>Are Trukks a must?
Depends on the size of the ork squad and what they're armed with. Obviously, you don't need Trukks if you're just bringing 30-boy squads, but they're useful for smaller ones who don't have the numbers to footslog successfully. Also, remember that trukks are open-topped, so everyone inside can shoot out of them.

>Also what do you think about burnas?
I can attest from personal experience that burnas in trukks is absolutely devastating if they get close enough to broadside.

>>50973733
Sorry I fucked up the link. Use this:

>>50973733
Are they actually good? They seem like the small unit count could kind of hamper their ability outside of Kill Team. They don't seem to have many vehicle options, though they do still have drop pod.
I love drop pods.

>>50972513
Vehicles should be banned altogether. Other than that it's fine and doesn't need HoR imho, but I get why people prefer it.

>>50973756
>burnas in trukks
and this is very nice idea. I asked about burnas on their own, but hell on earth trukk seems extra-fun.

>>50973793
They're good, you just have to be good at Just As Planned to offset the small unit count. Things like deepstriking frag cannons and DW shotguns are amazing, and Mission Tactics make the army excellent at adapting to changing circumstances on the battlefield. Also, Corvus Blackstars are fucking awesome.

>>50973878
Yeah, footslogging burnas will usually die before they accomplish anything. Hell on Eath Trukks are absolute murder machines though, especially if you paint them red.

I exclusively play with my non-gaming friends (although they do enjoy the ocasional game of warhammer, probably for the spectacle.) They can barely wrap their heads around the rules of regular 40k, let alone all the extra stuff.

How do you even teach 40k to rookies?

>>50975563
>How do you even teach 40k to rookies?
I couldn't wrap my head around it at first, and I wanted to play.
I tried to mash out the Dark Vengeance set with my brother, but I forgot all about morale tests, so it ground on for a few turns with two termies having trouble catching two lightning-fast Chaos Cultists who WOULD. NOT. DIE.

He enjoyed it, but I only got into 40k once I moved away to college. Ironically I'd enjoy having someone close by who I liked to play casual Kill Team with.

Speaking of, has anyone ever played Kill Team with 30k rules? Opinions?
Tell of your house rules here, particularly of the variety that make it more interesting for casual players.

>>50975708
russian satelite
If someone rolls two 1 in anything(i mean anything where you can roll it), a russian satelite falls. Where? the board is divided in 6 parts, roll d6, place blast marker 7", roll for scatter. S8 AP2

>train
there is an invisible axis where, at the start of every players turn, a train passes if you roll 1 on d6. Counts as ramming where train is F12 S12 S12

In my games it usually ends up with me looking up every number and constantly referencing the charts. I'll have to hand em their own damn charts. But that'll involve teaching them which units are which, wargear, etc.

that looks fucking awesome what is it

If you absolutely must play 40k, kill team is the way to go. The balance isn't as wacky, the scale actually makes sense and the cost isn't high.
However, you should really just consider that there are other wargames out there and maybe give those a try, I can guarantee they are better than 40k.

>>50980224
Some chit based wargame. There's loads of them out there. They have extremely complicated rules take more time than anyone has available, and are played by 50+ year old men in church basements.

>Warmahordes

>>50980741
>Where the only model that matters is your leader and the rest of your army are just cheerleaders to buff him
If by "leader" you mean specialists then yes, it's one of the pillar of rules, you should pick up enough specialists to make your squad effective, but also you should pick up enough regular units to generate enough orders for specialists.
And unlike 40k, usual weapon could be useful too.

>Fan codices like Rogue Traders
>More common sense retailoring of unit rules
>More common sense restrictions on units and unit types
>A pretty good progressive campaign system

I guess that some people prefer their power armor to look more like medieval Plate armor while other prefer it to look more like scifi military stuff. Infinity and Halo do the latter, while Warhammer and Fallout do the former.

Boyz and nobz are an absolute must for trukks. 2 - 3 squads of boyz or nobz put into trukks will do it. Give those boyz shootas too if you want them to be extra effective.

Burnas, make them lootas instead, I actually took out a fucking titan with 1 squad of lootas 2 weeks ago.

After that WARBIKERS ON WARBIKERS ON WARBIKERS. They're super useful, they have the speed and combat effectiveness to make them a great all around unit. Except against vehicles and template weapons.

Tell me about your killteam Anons

Here is my killteam:
The 8th Pa'Laa Hunter Vanguard Force, is a killteam dispatched ahead of the main hunter contigent of the Pa'Laa sept in order to report of any dangers that lies ahead and eliminate them if possible.

The killteam is lead by Shas'vre Che'lal're, a battlesuit pilot that prefers to support his troops with his plasma rifle, and get close and personal with his fusion blaster.

The rest of his team is a group of fire warriors, 2 gun drones a couple of Kroot and a Vespid.

In the team there are also the specialists
>Shas'la Keen'oi's eyes is well trained to pick up even the slightest movement on the battlefield. Nothing escape his sigt untill a couple of pulse rounds have pierced the target, he has the highest killcount among the fire warriors. (Eagle eye)

>The Kroot Kerrabeth Pattrack, likes to coat his blades in the venom from the Joovla Deathworm found in the swamps of the deathworld Ronto-IV. The venom stops the heart on most species but still leaves room for a long and painfull death. (Poisoned Weapons)

>The Vespid who's name roughly translates to [One That Strike from Shadows] is a cunning warrior and has seen many tours of battle before being assigned to the killteam. He is quick to spot the weak points in his foes and more often then not he will strike from the shadows and kill the enemy before they can even react. (Deathblow)

Plasma Rifle has good penetration, as does the Fusion Blaster, so those are your options for hard targets. Missile Pod has range and pretty decent strength, which makes it appealing, though only AP4, so better against Skitarii/Scions/other Tau and lower Av armies than Space Marines. Burst Cannon and Flamer are your go-to for horde armies with low saves like Orks, Tyranids, Imperial Guard, the high volume of shots and templates can make more dudes dead.

I never said that.
infact i know otherwise, infinity has a low price floor (about 40 bucks to begin) and a relatively high price ceiling because of the need for unit diversity to be competitive and because CB forces people to buy 40-50 dollar boxes priced as if you were buying each individual blister.

Gw is however more expensive, unless you are playing low points but it isn't quite fair to compare the price of being competitive to the price of being non-competitive .

>>50988209
You can get a 40k starter for 100 dollars too.

Reality is that these days GW is facing REAL competitors.

Warmachine is becoming HUGE in USA and their tournament meta is balanced.

Infinity offers a spectacular range of miniatures and it really brings "Sci fi Skirmish" to the table.

Zombiecide has taken the tabletop market by the balls.

And finally Fantasy Flight became #1 in six months with X-Wing and it's preparing a proper wargame with Runewars,

All GW plans for 2016 was releasing box sets that could answer to those competitors.

Killteam is the Infinity 40k mod.

Icestorm was a blowout success because it was just what people needed as a reason to start playing Infinity. GW's Kill Team boxes are following the logical success of those boxes, almost like Roundtree understands what's required to attract new customers and inject new blood into the franchise.

Of course, what Infinity is lacking is a good Campaign system for casual play. There's some great fan-made ones out there, but nothing on par with Heralds of Ruin in terms of support, community participation, and acceptance.

aren't privateer press losing ground in the miniatures market now since there is more games, better games now for disgruntled former 40k players now.

>>50990895

I mean yeah but what if I play casually? I also like Warhammer 40k and infinity since I own armies for both games.

Literally why cant you autists agree with each other

hey time-traveller, how's 2003-05 treating you

The problem with Killteam is that it brings you the same figure cloned several times. Spess Muhreens against Spess Muhreens. Really boring.

?

>>50985419
I bow to you sir. Nice story.

Btw are you allowed to pick less models than the minimum unit size for regular battles???

As in less than 5 fire warriors.

These are super cool, thanks for posting it.

WAAAGH!!
Cunningly stupid ork nob Ba'ghar'lk decided that he want to fight 'oomies on the smaller scale, because he always wanted to show how fucking orky he is. So his clan had set up a rule. Only pussies bring more than 30 orkz to a fight.
He's also rather keen on messing with his unit composition, because it's no fun to stomp 'oomies in the same mob constantly and it's kinda deadly here, so no one lives more for three or four battles(fluffy explanation why my list changes constantly as i want to try out as much stuff as possible).

>>50991395

The fuck are you on about m8?

I play Renegades atm, my gf plays Skitaari, a friend of ours who plays with us plays 'Nids...

And no two figures on the table are the same?

l2customize noob.

>>50991395
That doesn't happen if you don't play space marines. Just play Orkz since it makes perfect sense for them to be fighting ANYONE including eachother.

How does an Assault Squad and Scout squad sound?

Assault squad will have a flamer and sergeant with power sword and the rest with bolt pistol+chain sword but one will have a plasma pistol

Scout squad will all have bolters+camo cloaks and one with a heavy bolter+relentless

>>50991717
I think so

>>50985553

Vultures are literally awesome birds. You shut your filthy whore mouth.

IIRC you could in the old Kill Team. Like if a squad was 5 guys at 60 pts and 10 points each past that, you'd buy them at 10 pts but couldn't take special weapons and the like (or it might have been one).

Personally, I'd love to see someone errata or houserule that back in.

Unfortunately, you're stuck with minimum squad size and requirement for GW KT as of present.

However, HoR lets you buy individually (save for horde models, which you buy in packs of 5), and the Horus Heresy version (Victory is Vengeance) of Kill Team lets you buy them individually for the price of additional squadmates.

>>50972513
Do the models come pre-painted? Because if so then I will buy

>>50999550
no. GW hasn't and won't do pre painted minis.
unassembled and unpainted minis is one of their big things that the customers want.

>>50991395
You clearly play to win, not to have fun.

>>50990887
Skirmish scale is why I got into HoR/KT. I don't have the time or inclination to play massive games, especially when they're dominated by super heavies. I'm also a whore for 40k, which is why I haven't gone to any other systems (yet).

HoR is my jam.
I won the last campaign I took part in and my Imperial Guard Veterans are really shaping up to be a force worthy of a fearsome reputation.
It's as follows:

Senior Force Commander:
-Antarax Pattern Carapace Armour
-Plasma Pistol
-Power Sword
-Stealth
-12" S4, AP6, Twin Linked, Strikedown Shotgun
-Bionic Eye
-Stubborn
-WS+1

Two Imperial Guard squads (five men each)
-Stubborn
-WS+1
-Stealth
-Flak Armour

Veteran Imperial Guard squads (upgraded to five men each)
-Stubborn
-WS+1
-Stealth
-Camo Cloaks
-Snare Mines
-Carapace Armour

Veteran Mortar Team
-Stubborn
-WS+1
-Stealth
-Carapace Armour

Veteran Sergeant
-Stubborn
-WS+1
-Stealth
-Carapace Armour
-Snare Mines
-Plasma Pistol

5 Kasrkin Stormtroopers
-Stubborn
-WS+1
-Stealth
-Medic Training
-Smoke Grenades
-Auspex
-Hammer of Wrath
-Diver

We kill Chaos Marines all day long.

Apologies for the shitty picture filter, according to my friend, "it's cool"

>>51002276
Could you stat and price that Force Commander? I would love to use him.

>>51002178
Fliers and superheavies are why I still play 5th edition. Not really a fan of formations, either.

>>51002291
WS5 BS4 S3 T3 W2 I3 A3 LD9 SV+4 (re-roll failed saves for Antarax Pattern Armour)

For everything I listed, he will cost 60 Requisition Points plus another 2 Requisition Points because he's a Krieger.

Have fun with him anon!

>>51002439
Thanks a bunch

>>50988209
I bought the kill team box for 30€, that's like 600$ or 4 bigmacs.

>>51002276
Nice team. You might want to put Counter Attack on the regular Guardsmen to make them a bit more survivable when they're being charged. You use the same loadout on Scion/kasrkins as me.

>>51002276
Upgrade those footsloggers!

If youre wanting true XCOM you play an IG platoon and watch your numbskull rookies panic like based Julian Gollop intended
