I wanna make these guys look like they will tread through snow and shit for multiple years to get their job done. I.E. I want them to look over prepared.
Hey everyone, does anyone know if there will be digital rules available at any point? I know there is Lite rules for free but I would like the full rulebook in digital format. Cheers!
Ngl it took me a little bit to realize that it was rather easy to find and once I read it I can see why it was a must read. A definite read for any Beginner (like me) thats getting into Kill Team Angel of Deaths aka Space Marines.
Here I'll make it easy for everyone to see what I'm talking about.

It was pretty straight forward and now I have a MUCH better understanding on how to shape my team and pick and choose what I want built and painted. Also another side note Space Marine Kill teams gets 1 Eliminator aka Sniper and 1 Heavy Gunner. Its a pretty good blessing that you can buy one model online of that one model. They're all named but from what I'm reading, you can just do those single models to add to your team. For example Brother Acules, is your Heavy Intercessor Gunner and you can just buy that one model to add to your team.
To all the Space Marine beginners out there thats starting, don't be like me asking questions about the Space Marine kill team one at a time. Literally go to the link and read and it answered all my questions.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Hey all,
I'm relatively new to kill team, but looking to expand from the Hivestorm box set. I've had a look at a bunch of teams and have narrowed my choice down to either Mandrakes or Scouts. What would people recommend considering the Hivestorm teams I already have?
I have recently found this infographic regarding the retirement of Killteams and since most of the teams I'm interested in are from year one, I was wondering if that causes problems in the long run.
I'm a pretty casual player who doesn't care if their team can't compete in tournaments, but I would mind if my team doesn't get any updates to their rules anymore once it's retired. And I'm not a big fan of playing with older rules if there are new one out there.
Since the information I've found on the retirement is pretty sparse, what exactly happens when a team gets retired?
Hello there friends, so I recent picked up the Hernkyn Yaegirs kill team and wanted to know a few things.
1: Is there a wrong way to build this team, like one that just isn't allowed. 2: Can I make them all different cloak colours? Like will that just become hard for my opponent to identify which is which?
(I know silly question, I just see everyone painting there's with brown or black cloaks. Or red Jeans guy who made the entire outfit jeans)
3: What are some fun builds for them team wise. Like I don't mean "the strongest and best" I mean more silly and wacky that can have a good time with.
4: do you pick each unit from the list that can be in the squad? Or does it have to be 1 of each. Which is more fun?
5: whats your favourite kill team and why?
6: why don't crisis suits get a kill team? I understand knights (it would be funny with a single armigar). (Only asking cause I made 3 unique looking suits and thought that might be cool.
Sorry if this breaks any rules, if it does please let me know.
Hope you all have a lovely day.
So I recently went to my nearby Warhammer-store on 2 different occasions because I had questions and both times multiple employees told me that since a short time Killteam can only be played (officially) with the figures that come in the killteam boxes (I asked for Angels of death specifically).
That doesn’t make any sense to me because if I can only play with the AoD figures from the starter box that would mean that I wouldn’t even have access to the Intercessor with the grenade launcher or the Assault Intercessor Sergeant for example.
I asked multiple times and they always assured me that strictly speaking I can’t use any other minis anymore but that most people wouldn’t mind to play against someone who plays with other minis (that still fit the rules ofc) so my question is are they right?
Just wondering what people are planning for kitbash or proxy versions of the teams in this new edition? With hivestorm, the starter set, and the new brutal and cunning, what kind of proxies are folks planning with the new onslaught of teams? Or even new ideas with the current classified list of teams that are your upcoming project?
Are the Drukhari that malnourished and underfed in Commorragh or did Gee Dubz forgot to update the Drukhari? I was hoping I could proxy some Drukhari into my Corsair team but nope
Have the ability to buy the newest box, or the one that came out around Shadowvault. The "older" one is $10 cheaper, and the only difference in the descriptions is the new one mentions the tracker tokens.
So is that really the only difference?
So it gives you the advantages of being on a 3” vantage.
But does this allow you to see over terrain for the purpose of drawing cover lines? I.e if there was intervening heavy would the target still be obscured or can you draw the cover lines over the top of terrain from a position 3” higher than you actually are.
I’ll probably paint the heavy gunner next and build a dude with grenade launcher to round out the crew.
Me and my buddy have been looking to get into warhammer for a while now but always thought it to be too expensive for us. Today we were at the game store and ended up looking at some of the kill team kits and it looked like a much cheaper option to get. I was wondering what is a good starting point to get into kill team. Is the starter set any good or should we buy the teams we are more into and think look cooler?
I have been reading and looking around but I can't for the life of me find the answer to this anywhere so I'll ask here. Although I may already know the answer to this, which is yes I can and shouldn't matter since its still the same weapons. But...
So I found this Mini called "Brother Sergeant Sevastus." I really like how this Sergeant looks compared to the Assault Intercessor Sergeant looks. I was wondering if I could use this Sergeant look as the stand in mini look for my Assault Intercessor in my Kill team games? Or is there a specific rule on using models from other sets in your kill teams?
Regarding the new, to be released Hierotek Circle Necrons - to make the full team I would need to buy the bespoke Hierotek Circle box as well as the Chrinomancer and Psychomancer separately. As the box comes with the Technomancer, correct?
Would that complete the full roster to choose from. Or are other boxes also required to have all choices for team composition?
Thanks.
Templars of the White, Black and Red varieties and a Crimson Fist. I plan to paint the captain as an Imperial Fist, I still haven't decided what successor chapters for the eliminator and the heavy intercessor.
Hello, as Legionaries I've been struggling into elves, I find i can't hit them, the combat tricks just find ways to mess me up and they're too damn evasive. Anyone have any tips for this match up? I have to play them in an upcoming league so any tips or tricks are appreciated
Is it possible to make up the maps in the book with one set of Gallowdark terrain or do you need the boarding actions set? I ask because Gallowdark isn't listed as having any 'Long Walls with Hatchway and Pillars' on the Warhammer website (A4 in the core book).
Is that just a listing error on the Warhammer website?
Boarding actions set says it's 2xGallowdark and lists the Long Walls with Hatchway and Pillars as x 4 in the set.
Slow progress but I've got 'em based up. Bonus Minka for an alternate sergeant load out.
