Post Your Kill Team List Here

[Master Bryss]

Aah, Kill Team. Possibly one of my favourite things in all of 40k. However, I have no idea what sort of list to try out yet.

So, I'd like to see what you lot would take, as well as your thoughts on what armies benefit/suffer from this sort of game.

5 BT bikers, 2 with power weapons 1 with flamer, give the powers and the flamer scout

[Sir Biscuit]

@gcsmith: you have to pick three different USR's to give to three seperate guys. They can't all have scout.

It should be noted that it's very easy to build pretty broken Kill Team lists. So, let's try to make some fun ones here and give each other ideas, eh?

My favorite so far:
5 man Tactical Squad
+Combi-Flamer
5 man Scout Squad
+4 Sniper Rifles
+Missile Launcher

With fifteen points left over, that either becomes camo cloaks for the scouts or a power sword+meltabombs for the tac squad Sergent.

EDIT: Specialists:
Tac squad Sergent has Feel No Pain.
Missile Launcher Scout has Tank Hunter.
Scout Sergent has Furious Charge.

[Gotthammer]

Space Marines:

Tac Squad -
Power Fist Sgt w FnP
Meltagun w Steath
Heavy Bolter w Relentless

or

Tac Squad
Power Sword Sgt w Furious Charge
Plasma gun w Relentless
Missile Launcher w Slow and Purposeful (a way to get two relentless guys)

- These are just souped up tac squads, nothing too exciting -


Eldar
4 x Striking Scorpions - 1 w Prefered Enemy
Scorpion Claw & Stalker Exarch w FnP

4 x Dire Avengers
Diresword Exarch w Furious Charge

- My Scorpion exarch is painted up like the Predator, so I have to take them -


6 x Swooping Hawks
Sunrifle & Skyleap/Intercept Exarch

- Given each guy can Skyleap individually you can bring a veritable hail of grenades on your opponent. The Sunrifle could prove rather devestating too with Assault 6. Not sure what skills to give them though. -

2 x Sentinel w Missile Launcher - 1 w Tank hunters
1 x Sentinel w Heavy Flamer - Hit and Run

Le Soldat Marbo - FnP

- Marbo's ridiculousness makes up for the lack of numbers here -

[Aenir]

I thought a Deathwing Killteam would be insane, special rules PLUS they already have fearless?

I thought a Deathwing Killteam would be insane, special rules PLUS they already have fearless?

As has been pointed out elsewhere though; Fearless won't help in the Kill Team win/lose roll, as its a Leadership test. Had someone else not pointed it out to me, I likely would have missed that tidbit myself.

Going to try something simple this weekend:

6 Noise Marines w/ Sonic Blasters
1 Champion w/Sonic Blaster & Doom Siren

I'm thinking the flexibility of Heavy3 or Assault2 may offset lack of numbers. Especially being able to split fire.

Likely not, but it'll be fun to try.

[Master Bryss]

Will someone please tell me why everyone calls Marbo Le Soldat? I'll try my hand now.

ST Kill Team:

Sarge w/ power sword and Furious Charge

Guy w/ meltagun and Tank Hunters

Guy w/ plasma gun and Relentless

7 normal stormtroopers


Tau Kill Team: (This is Kill Team so I'll ignore the mandatory Commander rule)

Crisis Battlesuit with plasma rifle, missile pod and targeting array, plus Feel No Pain

6 Fire Warriors, including Shas'ui with markerlight and bonding knife, plus Relentless

4 Gun Drones

EDIT: Gotthammer, since Skyleap applies to the "unit" and each Hawk has to be on their own, shouldn't only the Exarch be able to leap?

EDIT EDIT: Whaddaya mean I can't have 2 Elites choices? Changing Tau list.

[Herald of Nurgle]

Question: Can I take a Summoned Greater Daemon in my Kill Team? It's a HQ choice, but it doesn't count towards chart.

Technically i'd try to take the Daemon and just 5 bog standard Chosen with 1 Champion. The Champion takes Feel No Pain, and two others get something like Fearless or Stealth? I dunno. 200pts tho.

wow. Talk about abusing the rules. I think I would just simply not play you if we were playing Kill Team at the same store.

>always lulzy, though with the lower models, cataclysm's not really going do much. spirit leech should be deadly enough.

Nids have a fair amount of flexibility, although you're basically making one unit choice, and fitting everything else around that. one elites choice is sadface. shame tervigons are out, but they are W6 Mcs.

I saw an amusing necron list that was 21 Warriors, with stealth, feel no pain, and swarm (for second stealth) that looked like it might hang around for a while.
