Squats versus Tyranids with either train terrain or Tyranid Hive terrain would definitely get me buying another box. Octarius is great for how well it all went together and built its own story.
I wasn't all that thrilled with the terrain that came with Nachmund because it didn't have anything to do with either included faction. I would have loved to see a board with Eldar ruins or even chaos infected Imperial terrain. Personally though, I'm still betting that one of the next two Kill Team boxes will have a Leagues of Votann team. Edit: Also, I'm pretty sure well see a partial Fronteris release as terrain in an upcoming Kill Team box as well. Probably one set of walls, the Antenna or Auspex Shrine, and either the bunker or landing pad. Maybe they'll include all the options across two Kill Team boxes.
I’m guessing it will be exosuits vs lictors. Lictors are tyranids that take out targets ahead of the swarm, assasin style, plus a rumor engine showed off what looks like a lictor tail.
My exact sentiment... I was really let down because I specifically thought I'd buy it if it had some sweet ruined ruins/corrupted eldar structures etc... and... let's say I'm not planning on filling each shelf of my appartment with plasma generators lol
Agreed on the terrain. It's also just such a lazy choice. Octarius had Ork terrain, the Imperial ruins in Chalnath did fit the Novitiates but this goes with none of the teams in the box. If they had at least recycles their deathworld fores they'd have had some Eldar ruins in there.
I'm sure some people were miffed that the crane was missing a piece but I think the bigger hang up the community had with it was a) if it's advertised on the box, as consumers we have a rightful expectation to get that same thing inside the box, and b) people that contacted GW customer support were being told to pound sand with no option for resolution.
Now I've only seen 2 of your videos, but I simply love your positive energy! The hobby gets to quickly negative, it's great to see counter-balance to that!
I've just got into Kill-Team through the Octarius set and it's super fun! I just subbed to this channel as it seems like one of the few reasonable 40k tabletop channels out there,that doesn't rampantly hate GW yet doesn't simp for them either.
Great vid! I finally bought a Knight and to be honest I’ve been eyeing up the Sacristan Forgeshrine. I know it’s laughably bad for 40K but I keep thinking about a custom mission using the Forgeshrine and a Knight as the centerpiece, maybe one side having the goal to activate the Knight and the other trying to sabotage it. It also looks like decent Kill Team terrain in general to me if it’s off to one side between the deployment zones and is the only vantage point on the map, really make it something to fight over.
I said I'd not ever play 40k again but you make Kill Team seem like something I could get into and I have to do something with all those Eldar models I've accumulated. Also, no shame in making your own terrain much like what you'd see in the old "Eavy Metal hobby guides and not every piece has to cost $85 to $95!
I feel like it was a way to offload the terrain. I have chalnath and Octarius and the octarius terrain is much better for killteam imo. At least the chalnath terrain was thematic. It’s great for 40k, though so I’m not mad about it. I’m passing on Nachmund. I’ll get the book if I feel like it would be useful.
Ok I recently got to your channel and GOD this one is good, I was looking for a channel focusing more on the models themselves and having honest reviews of GW's models. I like painting tutorials as much as the next one but clear reviews of boxes is way more rarer. You got yourself a new subscriber 👍
For Kill Team I've been using the Warcry Red Harvest terrain or several Middle Earth Dol Guldur sets kitbashed together. I play CSM and the terrain in this nachmund box is what kept me from wanting to go half or even 1/3 in on a box. So I'm waiting for the legionaire upgrade sprue to come out later since ebay sellers wants to charge like 60 bucks for it.
Chalnath was a bas terrain besaces of the Heavy terrains only, and in Warhammer World tournaments they had twice an amount of terrain for a single table ! But on the other hand, the Nachmund Crane Is here for Masking lines of sight so really interesting in terms of gameplay. You could tale about the little building « base of pyramide shaped » on the pictures in the Nachmund booklet but not in the box, just disappeared !
Hey Eon, I’m curious, have you ever done a painting tutorial for your deathguard? Cause I really, really like your paint scheme for the deathguard kill team you showed off a while back, and I want to give a crack at it for my upcoming deathguard kill team.
Love this review. It's the only one I've seen that is removed from release window. So the NEW feeling has worn off and you can get a few games in with the box's content. You were able to take a step back and give it a more honest review. I'd love to see more like this in the future or even going back to review the other expansions as some time has passed.
Also you make a solid point. Micro cover is a real thing on a battle field in real life so I think lots of tall things should be in 40k games and kill team should have one maybe two vantage points
There needs to be talk about the progression each box is bringing to the game. The first box showed the difference between compendium kill teams, and what the vision for kill teams going forward was. The second box intruded more things for a kill team to do with the Markerlights and the Acts of Faith, then the third box has now added the physic powers. I really like this incremental rule/mechanic building.
Eldar Corsairs were a FW exclusive TT army from 5th to 7th Editions with army lists provided in Talima Fox's Imperial Armour 11: The Doom of Mymeara (2011) for 5th Edition and its revised edition in 2015 for 7th Edition. I miss the Wasp Assault Walkers. And 4th Core Rulebook had Eldar Pirates KT conversion guide for the first iteration of Kill Team in 2004. And Eldar Pirates were also an army in RT with the Book of the Astronomican army list, and they were two datafaxes in 2nd Edition Codex: Eldar as well as dedicated Citadel Journal 13-14 army list. Eldar Pirates were also the original Eldar from RT rulebook, they pre-date White Dwarf RT Craftworld Eldar army list. I hope to see plastic Wasp Assault Walker kit at some point, maybe updated War Walker with dual kit option for Wasp?
My KT wishlist: Harlequin Mimes Inquisition Task Force Adeptus Arbites Execution Squad Elucidian Starstriders re-release as Rogue Traders KT Kroot Mercenaries Loxatl Broodpack Dark Mechanicus
I play regularly on the Chalnath terrain or the very similar terrain from the KT18 box. It works really well, especially as a balancing factor against Pathfinders. All the heavy cover creates big 'shadow' areas where you can be obscured, so you don't need to be on a conceal order. Side note, GW still have Wall of Martyrs, Ryza Ruins and Death World Forrest that they can put out before they have to create another new set for KT.
A Squats vs Tyranids box seems like a no-brained. New Nids codex is dope, something like Geanstealers or Warriors already have kill-team rules but they could finally do some sexy new Geanstealers models to replace the standard GW box. Then, like with the last two boxes of Killteam, they would be able to do a “refresh + new thing” by dropping the first round of Squat models. I think it’d be really cool to get Geanstealers vs some Votunn Veterans or maybe Warriors vs a Squat Stealth Suit equivalent as a 3v3 kind of “heavy kill team”
you are right they should offer barrels boxes etc. they have them to i got a literal pile of junky bits like tank traps and little piles of rubble etc. it all came with the 40k conquest magazine series
I honestly really like the here-to-stay starter for killteam. 2 kill teams, some scatter terrain and all the needed small stuff for 85 eur? Much more easy to swallow than 150 eur limited time starters.
I have yet to jump into Kill Team. I was going to with Nachmund because of the warbands (they both looked so good) but… the terrain looked super sparse and the price was nuts. My LGS still has Octarius and Chalnath. The main thing holding me back is the octarius stuff is very orky and I don’t have 40k orks and I would like dual purpose terrain. Though it sounds like you can’t really do that from this video
With the amount of customization and if you shop right super cheap price point makes the Mechanicus probably the best and affordable stand alone terrain. Certainly not a one shot buy, but if you have been smart enough to get terrain pieces with a package, sector mechanicus is great. If you go to most local game stores you can pick up bundles with a team you might not use, but perhaps a friend? Unfortunately the platforms only primarily appear in the more expensive packs.
So the GW store around me let it slip that they’re starting a promo to give away free terrain over certain thresholds of purchases, so like you buy $XX of models and you get a free little terrain kit. He wasn’t specific but he made it seem like it’s scatter terrain like barrels, boxes, crates, etc. Seems like it would be great to flesh out kill team terrain and add those LoS breaks
Two cranes on a battlefield.... Airships beware! But yeah, in the group I'm in, we've often considered Kill Team matches more like "Fighting in a single building" whereas typical 40k is "City block" fighting.
Is a good way to start to get the starter set and compendium to use the things I already have? Or to get the essentials kit and use the 40k starter kit terrain
You said "since their basically out of terrain" but I disagree. They have their new fronteris (and old) they could put in a KT box. Or knowing GW they could put even more sector mecanicus terrain (there is a lot of other terrain available in this range). But I really do hope you are right and a new octarius like box set is in the work.
I might still get this as my first foray into tabletop as I am a big fan of both included factions, plus I'd be more comfortable playing with people ik before heading out and playing against good players
Jay - I'm currently collecting as many GW models with books/scrolls etc as possible, to create an auditor kill team (I'm just THAT cool). Currently up to about 17 of which I have around 10, the rest are very hard to find/hard to justify ebay prices. What's your view on kill teams like this, which have no rules so you have to proxy as something else? I was thinking, as they're basically all gunless, to run them as genestealers and just leave 7 of them in their little storage tub? Would love to hear your thoughts on the whackier side of kill team!
How do you create your kill team? Do you require the 40k Codex for each faction or are there rules specifically for each kill team available separately?
Kill team is a separate game from 40k in the current edition, so it has its own rules. They are spread across the compendium, various white dwarf articles, and the books with the same name as the boxes in this videos thumbnail. There is also an unofficial website with everything.
Damn man! You’re still slimming down. The wife and I are working on eating better too. Its time to get healthy. Also I’m getting my friend into kill team. Yay!
Nachmund was a huge miss for eldar terrain, and chalnath was a huge miss for tau terrain. I'm pretty sure everyone have plenty of gothic ruins and pipes.
Great video Jay, I've yet to dip my toes into kill team, mainly due to my backlog with Indomitus/Dominion/Imperium/Blood Bowl/Underworlds. Your enthusiasm about it is infectious though!
Surprisingly GW are sending out full servo hauler boxes of terrain to replace the lone bit of anntea. The main thing ya need is to have bought it straight from them (thus getting no discount) with receipt, but if ya have that they are rather ameiable and quick to try to try to help.
I love the new teams, but Sector Mechanicus works better with catwalks. Octarius terrain is the best GW terrain for KT. I use some old GW terrain and 3rd party pieces for my boards.
Great video! I’ve recently gotten the kill team starter set and am having a lot of fun, I’ve been thinking about getting some more sets, what would you suggest?
Hi! I posted this under another video of yours, but i fear nobody will read it. I want to get into Kill Team and play Talons. The build you suggested in the other video sounds good (2 Custodes, 5 Sisters) and i will go for it. Here the questions i have (dont have any rulebooks so far), do the Sisters have to take all the same weapon, or can i go with 4 bolters and 1 flamer? Same with the Custodes. And is Spear or Blade+Shield stronger? If they are approximately equal, i would like to go with one of each (if possible).
People complained about the crane not having the ariel. People emailed in and GW response was "it says models may vary on the box" then within 24 hours they had removed the image on the site and Photoshopped it out on the picture of the full board. 😂
I’m hoping for some xenos or chaos terrain in the future (the terrain from the last Warcry box was 90% there; all it needed were some sacrificed guardsmen and some corroded machinery).
The crane hole was a cock-up, but if you're on your second or third then you'd want to snip off a bit of one of the smokestacks anyway. It is disappointing though.
I do feel like there's an underrated element of (I can't think of a better way to describe it without a video game term) level design with regards to terrain, yes it can be randomised but like your example, a piece of terrain should create interesting tactical decisions just by moving around it differently at best and at worst should just be miles of chest high walls I think the crane would probably be a better terrain piece collapsed and torn open by an aerial bombardment or something
Could not get into Killteam. I went to Mantic Games deadzone 3.0 and it is a brilliant ruleset and lots of factions all in the one set of rules. Should check it out.
Verona Wisconsin? Google Maps tells me that's less than 2 hours from Oshkosh. Perhaps you could go hang out with Uncle Atom at some point and have a go at persuading him to improve his opinion of KT21. 😁
Games workshop has sent any uk buyers who raised the missing antenna with gw were sent a sector mechanicus galvanic servohaulers for free. Gw gets a lot of grief but they definitely made this right for me
Thematically the terrain does make sense since you have eldar pirates fighting chaos pirates in a imperial warzone, a craft world or chaos themed terrain wouldn't make as much sense A terrain I want to see is a hive fleet it nurgles themed terrain that is just oozing flesh sacs and other gross ness and looks a bit like lv426 from Aliens
Where is that base on your Eldar captain substitute? Are we sure that it's really a Jay painted EoB model with no base? Or did the Jay impersonator strike again?
I disagree only on get it with a friend as if you want 2 or more big things from the box you might as well get the box as if you buy it seperatly it's way more expensive.
The only thing you said I can't agree with is that the Kill Team sets are made to split with a friend. It's really quite the opposite, a single book with rules for both teams rather than data cards or slates like their other boxes. GW has made a conscious decision to make this more difficult to split, they certainly don't want you using wahapedia and without it it's impossible to split these boxes. They need more custom Kill Team terrain, having played on Chalnath many times I can say it's not great for Kill team nothing feels quite as good as the original Ork stuff.
Squats versus Tyranids with either train terrain or Tyranid Hive terrain would definitely get me buying another box. Octarius is great for how well it all went together and built its own story.
I heard someone say something about the Remnants of men of iron coming back with the squats so we may get a box like that
Or some space hulk terrain
squats vs nids with space hulk terrain?
big kill team news drops this upcoming friday (may.6)
could be the squats & tyranids
Sounds like a rock ans stone to me!
I wasn't all that thrilled with the terrain that came with Nachmund because it didn't have anything to do with either included faction. I would have loved to see a board with Eldar ruins or even chaos infected Imperial terrain.
Personally though, I'm still betting that one of the next two Kill Team boxes will have a Leagues of Votann team.

all of the nachmund terrain was literally just recycled shit they already had for sale on their website
I'm sure some people were miffed that the crane was missing a piece but I think the bigger hang up the community had with it was a) if it's advertised on the box, as consumers we have a rightful expectation to get that same thing inside the box, and b) people that contacted GW customer support were being told to pound sand with no option for resolution.

That reminds me of an OG Dawn of War mission where the Blood Ravens are trying to secure a fallen Titan for the Guard.
I said I'd not ever play 40k again but you make Kill Team seem like something I could get into and I have to do something with all those Eldar models I've accumulated. Also, no shame in making your own terrain much like what you'd see in the old "Eavy Metal hobby guides and not every piece has to cost $85 to $95!
Love the content. Great quality. Have you and Nick thought about battle reports? There’s a big hole in the TH-cam market for quality kill team content
I feel like it was a way to offload the terrain. I have chalnath and Octarius and the octarius terrain is much better for killteam imo. At least the chalnath terrain was thematic. It’s great for 40k, though so I’m not mad about it. I’m passing on Nachmund. I’ll get the book if I feel like it would be useful.
Thanks for the post! I was going to ask if any of the terrain sets are good for 40K as well as kill team.
Ok I recently got to your channel and GOD this one is good, I was looking for a channel focusing more on the models themselves and having honest reviews of GW's models. I like painting tutorials as much as the next one but clear reviews of boxes is way more rarer. You got yourself a new subscriber 👍

So I'm waiting for the legionaire upgrade sprue to come out later since ebay sellers wants to charge like 60 bucks for it.
Some eldar terrain would have been nice, even a crashed ship or something, seems odd for that particular match up imo
Chalnath was a bas terrain besaces of the Heavy terrains only, and in Warhammer World tournaments they had twice an amount of terrain for a single table !

The hole in the crane is about around 3 or 4 cm it's super noticable
Also you make a solid point. Micro cover is a real thing on a battle field in real life so I think lots of tall things should be in 40k games and kill team should have one maybe two vantage points

Warhammer isn't one of my main games, but I like vicariously living through your videos for the experience
This exact same thing happened to me. I even picked up a used not even primer visarch. Missing his top spike lol. Quickly glued some hair on. Cheers!
To balance the crane antenna issue, the industrial kill zone didn't come with the sprue that had the crane. Balanced; as it should be.
The crane missing a piece on the top is… nuts
I was pretty pissed about that.
Looking forward to your review of Kill Team: Frederic
Let’s just call this game « Random german sounding word »
Eldar Corsairs were a FW exclusive TT army from 5th to 7th Editions with army lists provided in Talima Fox's Imperial Armour 11: The Doom of Mymeara (2011) for 5th Edition and its revised edition in 2015 for 7th Edition.

I hope to see plastic Wasp Assault Walker kit at some point, maybe updated War Walker with dual kit option for Wasp?
Still waiting for release in Nachmund in Japan. Stuff here gets super delayed sometimes
The reason for Kroot is because Kroot are awesome. Crossing my fingers for a WD update!
My KT wishlist:
Harlequin Mimes
Inquisition Task Force
Adeptus Arbites Execution Squad
Elucidian Starstriders re-release as Rogue Traders KT
Kroot Mercenaries
Loxatl Broodpack
Dark Mechanicus
I got this box too but the problem for me was it exploded in the car...very distressing as I could not afford another box
What??? U gotta elaborate
The Terrain Crate boxes from Mantic could give some really good scatter terrain.
They work even better in their own skirmish game deadzone 3.0 with even Therese Washington on the cover such a great character
I play regularly on the Chalnath terrain or the very similar terrain from the KT18 box. It works really well, especially as a balancing factor against Pathfinders. All the heavy cover creates big 'shadow' areas where you can be obscured, so you don't need to be on a conceal order.
Side note, GW still have Wall of Martyrs, Ryza Ruins and Death World Forrest that they can put out before they have to create another new set for KT.
The corsairs are great, I’ve found they do really well when you use guerrilla tactics. The sniper is by far my favourite.
I’m not a chaos lover but my god , the great axe and heavy gunner models looks amazing , would love to port them over as loyalist
A Squats vs Tyranids box seems like a no-brained. New Nids codex is dope, something like Geanstealers or Warriors already have kill-team rules but they could finally do some sexy new Geanstealers models to replace the standard GW box.
Then, like with the last two boxes of Killteam, they would be able to do a “refresh + new thing” by dropping the first round of Squat models.
I think it’d be really cool to get Geanstealers vs some Votunn Veterans or maybe Warriors vs a Squat Stealth Suit equivalent as a 3v3 kind of “heavy kill team”
you are right they should offer barrels boxes etc. they have them to i got a literal pile of junky bits like tank traps and little piles of rubble etc. it all came with the 40k conquest magazine series
Excited for the long rumored Eons of Battle battle reports. Looking forward to seeing that terrain kitbashed
I honestly really like the here-to-stay starter for killteam. 2 kill teams, some scatter terrain and all the needed small stuff for 85 eur? Much more easy to swallow than 150 eur limited time starters.
I have yet to jump into Kill Team. I was going to with Nachmund because of the warbands (they both looked so good) but… the terrain looked super sparse and the price was nuts.

Price range is definitely a killer.

He wasn’t specific but he made it seem like it’s scatter terrain like barrels, boxes, crates, etc.
Seems like it would be great to flesh out kill team terrain and add those LoS breaks
You know, I think With the announcement of the squats. I think were gonna get a tyranid or genestealer squad vs the squats.
Two cranes on a battlefield.... Airships beware!
But yeah, in the group I'm in, we've often considered Kill Team matches more like "Fighting in a single building" whereas typical 40k is "City block" fighting.
Is a good way to start to get the starter set and compendium to use the things I already have? Or to get the essentials kit and use the 40k starter kit terrain
super super dope. really really cool. super duper excited. super super good. You need more adverbs
You said "since their basically out of terrain" but I disagree. They have their new fronteris (and old) they could put in a KT box. Or knowing GW they could put even more sector mecanicus terrain (there is a lot of other terrain available in this range).
But I really do hope you are right and a new octarius like box set is in the work.

Jay - I'm currently collecting as many GW models with books/scrolls etc as possible, to create an auditor kill team (I'm just THAT cool). Currently up to about 17 of which I have around 10, the rest are very hard to find/hard to justify ebay prices. What's your view on kill teams like this, which have no rules so you have to proxy as something else?

you didn't hear this from me but Warhamapedia has all the KT rules in one convinient place: wahapedia.ru/kill-team2/the-rules/introduction/
Does GW sell any terrain pieces that would work well for kill team from like necromunda or something?
Damn man! You’re still slimming down. The wife and I are working on eating better too. Its time to get healthy.
Also I’m getting my friend into kill team. Yay!
Nachmund was a huge miss for eldar terrain, and chalnath was a huge miss for tau terrain. I'm pretty sure everyone have plenty of gothic ruins and pipes.
the antenna thing shows how little shits GW gives about these boxes. Its not the bit itself thats the problem, its the implications of the omission.
looking forward to seeing you painting these eldar on stream. If youre gonna do that ofcourse
That's up to the patreons to decide...
Great video Jay, I've yet to dip my toes into kill team, mainly due to my backlog with Indomitus/Dominion/Imperium/Blood Bowl/Underworlds. Your enthusiasm about it is infectious though!
Do you guys sell your terrain STLs on Myminifactory or some other such site?
Not currently but everything we've ever made is on our Patreon. You could sign up and download everything if you wanted :)
Surprisingly GW are sending out full servo hauler boxes of terrain to replace the lone bit of anntea. The main thing ya need is to have bought it straight from them (thus getting no discount) with receipt, but if ya have that they are rather ameiable and quick to try to try to help.
Weirdly I heard the opposite as they said it functioned without it.
I'd be really interested to hear Jay's take on Warcry
I love the new teams, but Sector Mechanicus works better with catwalks. Octarius terrain is the best GW terrain for KT. I use some old GW terrain and 3rd party pieces for my boards.
Dual wield canes? Its sounds to me like a perfect opportunity for some ork stompa
Currently painting the chalnath terrain and BOY does it suck real hard to paint without an airbrush
Great video! I’ve recently gotten the kill team starter set and am having a lot of fun, I’ve been thinking about getting some more sets, what would you suggest?
Next box should be Space Skaven vs Squats.. Cool mining scenery....
Very nice review of yours!
Necromunda has some pretty good terrain available which would work for kill team mostly
Yeah that terrain piece you showed is definitely better designed in terms of interaction for the gameplay
Hi! I posted this under another video of yours, but i fear nobody will read it. I want to get into Kill Team and play Talons. The build you suggested in the other video sounds good (2 Custodes, 5 Sisters) and i will go for it. Here the questions i have (dont have any rulebooks so far), do the Sisters have to take all the same weapon, or can i go with 4 bolters and 1 flamer? Same with the Custodes. And is Spear or Blade+Shield stronger? If they are approximately equal, i would like to go with one of each (if possible).
People complained about the crane not having the ariel. People emailed in and GW response was "it says models may vary on the box" then within 24 hours they had removed the image on the site and Photoshopped it out on the picture of the full board. 😂
Random thought but I am curious when anyone thinks necrons will get there kill team double box
I like the combo. It will make a nice addition to the terrain I have already.
MINE DID NOT COME WITH A UPGRADE SPRU FOR CHAOS. super pissed
Haven’t used up Veritgus or Fronteris unfortunately.
The problem with the missing antenna is the gaping, and I mean GAPING hole in the back of the model.
I’m hoping for some xenos or chaos terrain in the future (the terrain from the last Warcry box was 90% there; all it needed were some sacrificed guardsmen and some corroded machinery).
You from Wisconsin?
I've actually played a couple games on this terrain, and was very very surprised at how balanced the game felt
Also that crane actually leaves a 1/2 diameter hole in the top of the crane model
The crane hole was a cock-up, but if you're on your second or third then you'd want to snip off a bit of one of the smokestacks anyway. It is disappointing though.
I really have gotten into Kill Team, love it!
Glad you talked about this
I do feel like there's an underrated element of (I can't think of a better way to describe it without a video game term) level design with regards to terrain, yes it can be randomised but like your example, a piece of terrain should create interesting tactical decisions just by moving around it differently at best and at worst should just be miles of chest high walls
I think the crane would probably be a better terrain piece collapsed and torn open by an aerial bombardment or something
I'm painting my Chalnath terrain right now.

Lost my marbles at the 3rd time 😂😂😂😂
Could not get into Killteam. I went to Mantic Games deadzone 3.0 and it is a brilliant ruleset and lots of factions all in the one set of rules. Should check it out.
deadzone is a great game!
Miss opportunity for chaos or Eldar craft world terrain. Wish we would have seen a death world terrain again
Could you please do a video painting the eldar corsairs?
Verona Wisconsin? Google Maps tells me that's less than 2 hours from Oshkosh. Perhaps you could go hang out with Uncle Atom at some point and have a go at persuading him to improve his opinion of KT21. 😁
Games workshop has sent any uk buyers who raised the missing antenna with gw were sent a sector mechanicus galvanic servohaulers for free. Gw gets a lot of grief but they definitely made this right for me
I heard that they refused to a bunch of folk. Maybe that was abroad but still shitty.
will you do kt battle reports?
“Including Kroot for some reason.” He says off hand and a mouth full of salt.
I only got this to add the chaos guys to my army and my bro is starting an Eldari kill team
Would be really cool to have a dark mechanics kill team.
Thematically the terrain does make sense since you have eldar pirates fighting chaos pirates in a imperial warzone, a craft world or chaos themed terrain wouldn't make as much sense
A terrain I want to see is a hive fleet it nurgles themed terrain that is just oozing flesh sacs and other gross ness and looks a bit like lv426 from Aliens
huh, when you turn on the subs you will get eldar course hairs vs. chaos based marines in this set :)
Watching now. This Kill Team Box intuited me..
Where is that base on your Eldar captain substitute? Are we sure that it's really a Jay painted EoB model with no base? Or did the Jay impersonator strike again?
If I could have an assault marine kill team I’d be interested (as in jump packs) as it is, eh I’d pass.
Can’t wait for Killteam: Frederik
I disagree only on get it with a friend as if you want 2 or more big things from the box you might as well get the box as if you buy it seperatly it's way more expensive.
Nick is getting the Goongas
The only thing you said I can't agree with is that the Kill Team sets are made to split with a friend. It's really quite the opposite, a single book with rules for both teams rather than data cards or slates like their other boxes. GW has made a conscious decision to make this more difficult to split, they certainly don't want you using wahapedia and without it it's impossible to split these boxes.
They need more custom Kill Team terrain, having played on Chalnath many times I can say it's not great for Kill team nothing feels quite as good as the original Ork stuff.
