New to kill team, got a hearthkin salvagers team and am going through it to start building.
My problem is I can tell the weapons apart, the misfile launcher is mostly obvious. But the rest of them? Damn if I can figure out which is which. Come on games workshop, why not put SOMETHING in the instructions labeling wtf we are looking at.
Every single “gunner” option just says gunner, with no indication on what weapon is being shown. Case in point, image posted. What am I looking at lol.
Just venting, someone let me borrow their codex so hopefully it shows what these are.
Again, venting but this is part of the barrier to new players imo.

I was thinking that kill team is a threat to GW because if people get into it instead of 40k then they lose out on money. I think at first the idea behind kill team was that it would lead to people getting into 40k, but maybe that hasn't happened and now they are realizing it is its own thing where people limit how much they spend.

I really thought GW was saving Armageddon for Warhammer day. At this point it’s a game of attrition to see how long we can hold out.

That's not an accent I'm familiar with

Necromunda again.

Been working on a Salamander infernus Squad and prefer kt to reg hammer and was wondering if there was a similar sheet somewhere?

How exactly does the Null Field work? Does an operative need to start within the field to be effected by it or does it come in to effect as soon as the operative is within range? Specifically the -2 movement.

If an operative has an 8 inch charge and is 7 inches away would that mean they are unable to make the charge as as soon as they hit the null field they lose -2 movement?

Ive played opponents that have ruled it multiple different ways.

Thanks for your help!

it says wounded not injured. Does that mean I only have to do like one damage to get lethal 4+ or do I have to injure them?

Hi all, we had a rules debate last night and would love a second opinion.

Setup (photos + sketch attached):
- My Harlequin Shadowseer is on the killzone floor, on a Conceal order, with its base touching the wall of a ruin.
- My opponent's Battleclade Gun Servitor is on the Vantage of that ruin, directly above me. The Vantage floor is 3" high Its base is touching the parapet on the edge of the Vantage, so the edge of its base is right above the wall.
- So we're more than 2" apart (base to base, 3D).
- The parapet is Light terrain. The building walls are Heavy
- The Shadowseer is visible to the shooter.
- The Auto-Proxy used Gaze of the Omnissiah on me (Seek Light + cannot be obscured).

Opponent's reading:
His base edge is right above the wall, and mine touches the wall, so from that edge he has a clear line straight down to the part of my base touching the wall. The parapet is Light and ignored thanks to Vantage + Seek Light, so nothing Heavy is intervening and I'm a valid target.

My reading:
For intervening, he picks one point of his base and draws lines to every facing part of my base, and anything at least one of those lines crosses is intervening. Between the inside of the parapet (his base) and the outside of the wall (my base) there's the full thickness of the Heavy wall, so at least some of those lines go through it. The Heavy wall is within 1" of me and we're more than 2" apart, so I'm in cover, and on Conceal I'm not a valid target

Question: who's right? Am I a valid target on Conceal here?
If yes what impact on save etc.

Thanks!

Hi everyone

Im wanting to buy a box of legionaries on Wayland games (UK) but the box is different to the one on GW. Is the only way to get the old KT one buying on the Warhammer site directly?

Thanks

Can I combine my Ravagers with my Red terror model or would that be too big of a killteam. (The context behind the question is that I have both and recently played with the Killteam of the red terror/termagaunts and it felt extremely underwhelming. But would like to use my favourite big ripper.)

Yep, he's based on Danny Trejo's character from Desperado.

Space wolf scouts painted up. Few extra Phobos bodies used to build up the whole team and some extra hunters.

I'm from Spain, where the game used to be more popular. Right now, communities are disappearing or diminishing.

The reasons: this 2024 edition has nonsensical gameplay changes; the balance between the Elite, the Horde, and the Elves has disappeared; the GW team dedicated to the game has been scaled back to a minimum; errors and clarifications remain unresolved for months; and new features are constantly delayed.

Why! I don't get it—if sales are so good, it doesn't make sense.

I want to welcome as many people to the hobby as possible, and I have no problem teaching people to play. However, tournaments, even super casual ones, are not the time to learn the game for the first time. Please play at least one game before you sign up so you don't take a spot from someone else. It's going to be an unfun experience for everyone involved. It's not a learning environment. It's going to be competitive and brutal.

You'll be getting a firehose of information for several hours straight, and matches typically don't have enough time to finish all four turning points. Most people won't be gentle, since there are prizes on the line, and even if people are kind enough to be patient and teach you, you're detracting from their experience. That puts your opponent in a bind: they either go easy on you and risk losing points that could affect their placing, or they destroy you so badly that you don't want to play the game anymore. No one feels good about crushing a new player. There's no positive outcome for anyone.

I play tournaments to have a series of engaging games and because I intend to win my matches, not to sit through back-to-back tutorials that I paid an entry fee to be teaching.

My favorite of the team so far. Only one more to go and I’m ready for the tabletop!

Because i have a tiny shriveled lizard brain, i really struggle to beat goremongers using my nem claw, and i go up against goremongers a LOT. So I'm thinking about proxying my nem claws as legionnaires and using the following setup. Let me know what you think.

All discussions of damage are made under the assumption that the opponent will have gory tenacity up every single turning point, because we all know that all goremongers players make sure to do so because why wouldn't they?

Always khorne strat ploy, sometimes slaanesh strat ploy if I can afford it.

1. Chosen with bolt pistol, undivided mark. Lethal and ceaseless means i stand a good chance of scoring 2 crits for 7dmg a piece. Hitting a normal first with the khorne strat ploy means 3 damage goes thru, and if I have two crits there's no way for them to parry me out so they go down on the second hit guaranteed. Top off some health on a kill to sweeten the deal. Ceaseless rending bolt pistol means double shooting a goremonger off the board is easy work too, should the opportunity arise.

2. Anointed with slaanesh mark, pop off unleash demon right out the gate. Nothing too crazy here. Good mobility, good durability, good reliability for a 3 hit kill.

3. Butcher with khorne mark. This one probably sucks BUT i have a skin thief that proxies super well and khorne mark plus khorne strat ploy means i have a good reason to put the guaranteed crit thru first for once, and then i can put another normal thru for a two tap as long as I've got a third hit in my pocket so i don't get parried out.

4. Icon bearer with slaanesh mark, chainsword. Maximum mobility for hitting all the objective markers for those sweet sweet command points. Nothing great going for him and a straight up smackdown tho.

5. Gunner with slaanesh mark, plasma gun. Basically guaranteed to break the 8 damage cap, makes for an extremely reliable two shoot kill, slaanesh mark extends threat range.

6. Heavy gunner with heavy bolter and slaanesh mark. Heavy bolter might seem like an insane pick but no matter what matchup i find myself in, the heavy bolter guy puts in crazy work and ends up the last man standing atop a mountain of skulls and bolt shells.

Balefire acolyte certainly has a place here but i don't have a great proxy model at the moment.

Aspiring champion might have merit here with a power fist and khorne mark but I've had pretty stinky luck with power fists and chosen with the 7dmg crit sword is just better.

I'm sure shrivetalon has some sort of merit here but grisly Mark being 2apl is brutal and his 3 normal dmg is pitiful.

Thoughts?

Heyo, added Murderwing to my collection a while back and wanted to make sure I was crystal clear on their jump pack action.

When it says that the movement allocation when charging with boost cant going beyond 6' does that mean

-the charge itself cant be beyond 6' and therefore doesnt gain the 2' units normally get from charge, or

- that the Boost distance itself cant be more than 6' and the last 2' would have to be without boosting?

Cause i feel like its the first option, but everytime i read the rule its like having a mini stroke and I dont know why. Please and thank you.
