Kill teams this Wed

Dying to try kill team mission this Wednesday and also bringing back velveeta salamanders at 2.5k.
Kill team is 200 points
0-1 elites
0-2 troops
0-1 fast
on 4x4 board.
Who is in?

kill team from the 4e rulebook?

What you posted is all the rules and whatnot?

I'm down- small games are pretty fun

Sounds interesting. Could give me a chance to try out this buggy sitting on my desk for the past couple weeks.

Wow, 200 points? Thats rediculously difficult! lol I'd be willing to give it a go.

why not sounds fast and hard...the way you fags like it....just fucking around sounds like fun seriously

From battle missions. Got all the rules for it.

ill do this
i can feild a lot of models for 200

Yea, have a feeling this could be easy for orks and nids. Tau I believe can give folks a run for their money at this level as well.

Originally Wednesday nights was a series of small games, about 750 points, so you could get two may be three games in.

Then Rudy declared 1500, and its been the same till today. I don't why, because it is more logical to have small games on a week night due to everyone's schedule.

Perhaps you could go back to small games. Just a suggestion.

cool, got to look it up in the battle missions book, then.

Hehe, last 2 month it has been 2k and now 2.5k for me. Got to say though that it has helped me to play faster. Especially when a certain SW player wiped my speed freaks warbiker army by turn 2. A 200 point kill team mission sounds like a lot of fun though. It will also let people try out new armies without spending your rent money. Also, just to add more info; each model is an independant character and may divide up melée attacks among those it is in base contact with. As well as you may select 3 models and give them any USR. You can't pick the same rule more than once. Reading through the book it doesn't mention a thing about vehicles though, so I guess it is fair game. Looking forward to see what everyone can squeeze into 200 pionts.

In original Kill Team rules, vehicles weren't allowed I believe.

Yeah, pretty sure no vehicles

Would be hard to fit vehicles in a KT game (points wise).

Sounds like fun, can give alot of character to certain models! Will actually remind me of a smaller version of DoW2.

I will definitely be down to get a game in!

Not sure about 4th edition. Apparently legal in battle missions though. Kinda dumb though since so many points invested in a vehicle and then once it blows up that's pretty much game. I think I posted all that is relevant for a kill team game.

Don't know how balanced a vehicle would be, the spirit of Kill Teams was to be small skirmish level infantry missions, commando raids, hence most didn't need to pack anti tank weaponry with their teams. It's not dumb, it's just fluffy as was always the point of Kill teams. Not sure how the new Kill Teams rules are supposed to be, but the way it was before it wouldn't make much sense. The point was that one team is sneaking in, while the other is the "guards".

Stuff like walkers were considered legal I believe though.

Do you actually have Battle Missions book? It's not supposed to be out yet, don't know if you got the full rules or taking something off some website? The old rules were much more complicated that what you posted in the initial post.

He got it from the battle missions book Joel has (I believe).

yep, pretty simple. It is just a few paragraphs and easy to commit to memory. Deployment is 9 inches from center and table quarters. The one thing that is important that i don't remember is if models are actually independent characters and get skilled rider and move through cover. If someone swings by the store in the next few days; let us know.

Matt and I might play a game tonight based on whats said here =D

Sounds like this is a game where certain units will flourish(Ogryns, Raveners, Lones wolves/ thunderwolf cav, and other 1 man army units that normally get struck down at range)

So they got rid of the entire mission structure for Killteams or scenarios and replaced it with just a small scale battle system?

played kill teams with josh... Interesting stuff if the rules are as stated here on the forum. It feels a little.. Empty though. Hopefully there's more in there to liven things up! It feels kinda like 40k but on a stupidly small scale. Battles are epic and bloody. Close combat is a nightmare, but where most of the combat seems to take place. Plasma guns ROCK. Other than that, the focus of the game seems to be spam 2+ armor saves and rush the field.

I pray that there's more to it than the above.

gonna bring my trevagon

Looks like they dumbed it down greatly, it also appears to be only one page. It's sad as Kill Teams was pretty interesting and they could have actually just added some rules to the old system and made something interesting out of it.

Can't no hq's and even taking bare gaunts to get as troop is too many points. Harpy is good though. Btw anyone going in store today to play? Off today so I can go in. We can always change things up like adding a mission objective or one hq or heavy foc.

I believe you can also take 3 USR
