I would not be able to write that in a script, everyone in fact DOES need a MINIMUM of 12 kill teams to play the game!

Easy, play Daemons and you have an infinity amount of Kill Teams. FML for choosing that rabbit hole of models.

If you don't paint your minis you just have a shopping addiction.

Yes, a fair point! That's of course my own poor terminology because as I mention in the next rule, charging doesn't really mean anything when it comes to fighting, they're completely unconnected!

That was the rule that inspired the entire video, actually!

I have another one which is 6 rules. Plus the line of sight video. 3 strong rules videos I'd say!

@@GlassHalfDead you bet! Your whole channel has been great!

Happy to help!

These are all relatively self explanatory and easy to remember once you've heard them once, but feel free to have this video run continuously on all devices for my ad revenue!

Fair point, but I haven't had my coffee as of the first watch-through 😆

I don't care for the rules........I just want that double HELLO .........

Glad you enjoy!

Oh I'm sure we'll find more rules to debate!

Thanks for the bananas!

Valid

The datacards I show on screen are given out to my $10 patrons! OR you can buy altenrative designs from the creator himself, David Cruz on Ko-fi :)

It can all be very complicated!

I think he mentioned before about just playing with the basic troop type and no CP’s, tac-ops or ploys. Then add specialists, then add CP’s.

Yes. The term "Free Action" is very deceptive. It just means you don't spend the APL to do it, but it is still bound by all the rules for making that action. So if you free dash you can't charge or perform a second dash in that activation.

You might have commented this in the wrong video (or my KZfaq is messing up) 🤔

@@GlassHalfDead Classic, nah thats just me being a dummy.

Would love to know where/how you found these (and the equipment cards :))

Comment for the comment throne!

Thanks!

Correct! Not yet, this video, the advanced rules video, and my line of sight video will all go together to be my breakdown of all rules.

No, you do not need visibility to an objective marker to control it :) Yes, height matters. You are always measuring distances to bases or to points. So far there are no infinitely high cylinders for objective points. These do not need an FAQ or anything like that, it is clear from the page that has rules for controlling objective markers and how to measure distances (I do not have the book on hand to give numbers, I'm reading the text on waha to make sure I'm right in this answer)

@@GlassHalfDead Awesome, thanks a bunch for this! Keep up the videos! I can't wait to see what else I'm doing wrong in the next video! LOL

The defender ALWAYS rolls their attack dice after the attacker when shooting. And yes, AP1 is minus 1 defence dice NOT -1 to what your defence dice need to roll to be a success. When doing melee, you roll at the same time.

You build your deck so you pick which ones you want to remove

Please read the text on screen for RULE 5. That contains the answer to your question :)

@@GlassHalfDead Thank you! Missed it.

Reap is only to nearby models. Splash is to nearby models AND the original model

@@GlassHalfDead Thx Good information for me :D (not so good for my friends :D). Have a nice wednesday.

The reason happens instead of rolling that dice so you would retain one and roll 2

yes - see his example of the Necrons 0 CP Ploy.

I cover it in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r-B-gJuKsLuohp8.html&t

My man, the same logic as losing APL needs to be applied here. Look at the RAW. If you hit them with a stun in your turn, then they will be -1apl for their next activation. If they charge you and you hit them with your stun they are -1apl until the end of that activation but then it resets at the end of their activation. Simple!

Just to clarify, you're asking a question that I directly answered in the video, right? Or is this a secondary question? If you have the correct keywords for the banner to affect the model holding it, then it affects it. The banner bearer is always visible to and within X of itself. So both HA and DG and daemon banners all affect the bearer, yes.

@@GlassHalfDead Honestly not certain if it's a new question or not. lol You had mentioned that it was visible and within range of itself and mentioned that the wording differences between different factions banners was intentional and that the wording difference has to do with how the banner affects other models not itself. Which I think I follow. You're not saying they don't affect themselves, you're talking about the targeting differences. Chaos demons only affect their same breed of demon and don't require visibility. Heretic banners boost their marines. Deathguard banners boost their marines. TSons affecting sorcerers only. Sororitas banners don't affect Arcos. Cult banners affect any friendly cult model. So I see some of the differences in targeting. We hadn't been playing with the banners affecting themselves due to the "this operative/that operative" terminology. We thought that suggested two different models. And I've definitely been thinking we're shorting them. I just wondered if there were any banners that clearly don't affect themselves due to how it's written.

@@villainvoice5143 Right, my bad there. So the speciifc thing I was referring to when I said different wordings is that some banners require distance and visibility for the banner to affect another model, but some banners only require distance. For example the chaos daemon banners can affect a model within 3". NO VISIBILITY REQUIREMENT. They can take effect through a solid wall. But both the HA and the DG banners require visbility. I did mention that this was in reference to how they affect other models, not themselves, but I could have been clearer :)

I dig it. Much obliged. I’m sure my buddies who use icon bearers will appreciate the upgrade. :)

Yes. You need a Comms model within that range for the order to effect your entire kill team regardless of range.

This is incorrectly stated in the video. As per pg. 92 of the rulebook, if a killteam has more than archetype, the player must select ONE of their archetypes to use. Note that it's KILLTEAM, not FIRETEAM, so you can't mix and match.

If the ultimate goal is to go to 40k then just play 40k, yeah. Buy a combat patrol and call it a day. If they end up not liking 40k then they will have the models to take a swing at Kill Team. Or if they like the idea of Kill Team's theme then they should obviously play it. But if they don't really care about the practical benefits of kill team then ignore it.

@@GlassHalfDead thanks

so you spent 550 dollars on stuff you aren't going to use? huh? lol

@@dtps_champion6016 oh. I plan to play it. Just don't know if I want to teach my family killteam or 40k. You would think they would make killteam a easy transition to big 40k. But no. Totally different rules. Not even close.

@@OverboardDM Just play KT 1.0 It's literally just small 40k with alternate activations and a couple different rules.

literally the other way around.

I'm not quite sure how a cover save would stack, but no, they don't. You can only retain 1 dice when you have the benefit of cover. Some ploys allow you to retain two.

Alas they are for my top tier patrons!

@@GlassHalfDead well played sir

Good news for you! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r-B-gJuKsLuohp8.html&t

Yes mortal wounds take effect before your opponent has an opportunity to parry or save against them.

Yes. To avoid mortal wounds, you would need to modify "Resolve Successful Hit step" from the enemy operator. This is mostly done with Tactical Ploys such as: REVOLTING DURABILITY 1 CP Use this Tactical Ploy in either the Resolve Successful Hits or Resolve Successful Saves step of a combat or shooting attack made against a friendly BUBONIC ASTARTES operative. You can change one of your opponent’s critical hits into a normal hit.

@@aimaralonsolavega5645 I'm pretty sure this is not correct. MWs happen when the critical hit is "retained". This happens before the resolve successful hits / saves step. You can't use REVOLTING DURABILITY to stop MWs.

Generally (so far always, but it doesn't necessarily have to be this way in the future): Mortal Wounds happen on Retaining a die in shooting, so passing a save doesn't help, you've already taken that damage. BUT Mortal Wounds happen on a successful Strike in melee combat, so if you can parry that die before the enemy strikes with it, or turn it into a parry or sth, you do in fact prevent it. If I'm not mistaken, that means that Revolting Durability helps against mortal wounds in melee but not in shooting.

​@@markzeman4219 I'm afraid not. MWs always "happen" as soon as the successful hits are retained at the end of the roll attack dice step (end thus before the resolve successful hits / saves step). Doesn't matter if it's a shooting or CC attack sequence. Btw.. I can't think of a weapon that makes MW in close combat...

@@GeeTee1 that's what I settled on too

There is no debate about this rule, it's very clear due to the wording. I actually do not know how to properly answer you because I'm not sure why there is a question on this. Half of 8 is 4. So you must be less than 4 to count as injured. Half of 7 is 3.5. So you are either above that at 4 or below that at 3. If this doesn't answer your question, please jump in my Discord and ask in the rules questions channel!

@@GlassHalfDead it does and it is the conclusion I have come to on my own, however, multiple people I have spoken to have assumed some element of rounding up or down, or that 4 wounds is less than half of eight (due to the non number mid point) with the former being due to many years of previous rules regarding fractional numbers asking players to round up and down, and the latter being because one can simply argue it the primary arguments come from overthinking the problem or assuming something is there when it is not, thus arguments ensue, and I simply wanted conformation from someone more knowledgeable on the matter.

@@LinSquiggly I am unsure where 4.5 is coming from for an 8 wound model? unless you're counting it on a scale from 1-8, instead of 0-8 (or am I further complicating your question)

@@sotbs2641 that's what caused debates over the specifics, alongside assumptions of rounding up and down due to past experiences. in reality, it's simple, but it trips people who think too much about the simple rule, or in one case, forget decimal numbers exist momentarily.

They are specifically for my top tier patrons as a little thank you to them. However you can buy alternative ones too. Search youtube for "Kill Team Datacards" and my tutorial on them should come up!

What aren't you getting? I'll correct you!

@@GlassHalfDead do I pay 1 cp for them all or each unit. You said in the video I could only do one a turn and that confused me. Thanks for your videos

@@MrDavidJabba you use and pay for the reanimation protocols ploy when one of your models dies. That is your one use of the ploy for the turn. Then in the next turn every model that you used RP on can roll to reanimate. That is the effect of the ploy, not you playing it.

@@GlassHalfDeadA double thank you. I see this question come up all the time in necron groups, and it's always a different answer.

#comment

I think that the answer is “yes”.

It could have been anything, really. There were more I could have added. I could have made it 2 videos of 10 rules each. I could have put some of these into the advanced video and gone into the explanation more etc.
