*Reminder:* You are completely free to make your own terrain pieces, it's easy, it's inexpensive and fun. It takes a bit of effort but the more you put into it, the more you'll enjoy it. 3D printers hasten your vision, do not sleep on that ability!

@adamsmith8765 3 ай бұрын

The starter set in Australia is $120. It contains some terrain, the contents of Kommandos ($105) and Veteran guardsman ($97). So you could buy Kommandos or Veterans or you can get both for a tiny little bit more.

@GreenBlueWalkthrough 3 ай бұрын

@@P.D.W1 Even in the US it was fine when you consider it's a starter VS Box and the norm in the TT wargames industry is $200 for a box like that... Which the current parted out price is closer to $300 from GW... So yeah it was fine expensive but fine.

@eewweeppkk 2 ай бұрын

And just to throw it out there for anyone who is getting into KT. Kommandos and veteran guard have been S tier tournament winners since this version of KT existed. They aren't unbeatable by other teams so don't feel bad for picking them up or anything, they just don't really have bad matchups and I don't want people to assume they are bad because they were in the starter set.

@IgnacioGlezCllo 14 күн бұрын

I didn't care for either of those squads, so instead I just bought the rule book. Now I find myself having to buy the terrain, tokens, gauges, etc, and a couple of squads, which me and my son are decided on (T'au and Phobos SM). All in, I'll probably end up paying 2-3 times as much as the starter box. Big mistake there on my part.

also more rewarding if you are more into the building/painting side of the hobby. Fells way better to finish an entirely playable killteam instead of just some random units. I also love that i can try painting so many different styles without having to think about potential armies.

Into the Dark (or Boarding Actions) is what I went ALL in for.

Besides hurting my hands a couple of times, I have so much fun setting up various layouts. I just wish I could afford (and have the time) to paint up all of the KT sets.

@johndemorris7388 3 ай бұрын

For new players, I'd give them a list of teams that require only 1 box to get everything you need. Off the top of my head there's Kommandos, SM Scouts and Starstiders. I'm sure there are more.

@eewweeppkk 2 ай бұрын

There's over a dozen, typing in 'kill team' on the warhammer store will show all of them, minus the most recent box releases (they sell the boxes as individual teams after a couple months). And also there's a death watch "killteam" that sneaks in on the search result that is just named thay and doesn't have an actually kill team.

Are there online apps that can help me build rosters such as battlescribe? This video only tells me to buy a team but what do I do after that? How do I build rosters? Run me through it, an example would be great. Just a thought

I'd argue that Blood Bowl is as cheap if not cheaper than Kill Team

@TheBugB 3 ай бұрын

Honestly I think they’re pretty similar in price. I think killteam has the potential to be cheaper if you go with a compendium list (if you play 40K you can probably make a list without having to buy anything but also compendium lists can get pretty cheap for warhammer standards at least).

@eewweeppkk 2 ай бұрын

I don't know about bloodbowls pricing, but assuming you're on a budget and okay with cutting corners you could reasonably start a kill team for under $100, paint and hobby supplies included.

@Mars0War 3 ай бұрын

@@rozza3135But it does make sense and certainly seems to be the trend with Scouts, Scorpions, Mandrakes and Nightlords all being boxes that will appeal to 40K players. Kill Team players will be interested regardless, and making them appealing to 40K players broadens the potential sales of a box. One of the most popular upcoming Kill Team rumors is a Vespid Kill Team, which is something practically every Tau player would want. I wouldn't be surprised if the Farstalker Kinband was also them gauging potential interest in a Kroot refresh, which is now happening.

@SWProductions100 3 ай бұрын

@@Mars0War As far as gauging market interest goes, that's not the worst way to go about it - though, of course, I wouldn't want Kill Team to just become a testing spot for 40ks main game

@eewweeppkk 2 ай бұрын

@Mars0War Are Eldar particularly popular for 40k players? And I thought scouts were considered a joke, though I'm sure that changes from edition to edition anyway. Were 40k players really jonesing for a mandrake squad for their dark Eldar? The next box release is genestealer guard and recon dwarves. I'm not saying you're wrong, but I just don't see the teams you listed as being particularly 40k popular, and I dont think I've seen a pattern of it. The original comment says something about 40k squads butting into killteam to appeal to those players, but going off of the compendium list...they're already all here and most of them are horrible.

That's the other good thing about the team, almost every space marine player you know probably has at least a few on a sprue somewhere and they're often happy to sell/trade for cheap.

A Compendium Hive Fleet tram placed in Top 10 (#8) at LVO 2024. And there are a number of Compendium Imperial Guard (Tempus Scions) teams that place well (even if not Top 10) at the major tournaments. Same for the Intercession Squad KT (with official free rules available online) [but also more recently not as competitively viable because of the change in the meta which favors hordes in competitive play]. All this is to say that there are other compendium (and related) teams besides Adeptus Costodes that can be considered viable, without being fully bespoke.

All of them I have by default due to owning the armies. Traitor Guard i feel would eventually have become an army one day much like the Krieg. Its funny because when Krieg came out people seemed to already know eventually we would see an army of them and based on rumors and rumor engines thats coming up pretty soon. So I wouldnt be surprised if see Traitor guar within the next edition

Some random garbage to mark objective spots and and a measuring tape I suppose. All the rules are online. For quality of life it would be nice for you to have their measuring tools and their objective cards, but they aren't strictly necessary for gameplay. The online rules should have maps and missions you can use with your terrain.
