Been playing for around 4 months so this video helped me out a lot. 😅
@@filth1744 nice one! Glad it helped and hope you've been having a good time with Kill Team 😀
Whoever came up with the idea of using those shapes for inches is a madman.
So the triangle with 3 sides represents 1 inch.
The circle with 1 side represents 2 inches
The square with 4 sides represents 3 inches,
The pentagon with 5 sides represents 6 inches.
So logical!
at least flip triangle and circle, so ascending number of corners is comparable to ascending order of inches.
Or just have numbers and a measuring stick, people learn those around the age of 5.
It makes almost as much sense as using inches over cm.
I'd why they don't just use either inches or cm
Just got my KillTeam boxset today, already warned the kids they have a duty to play the old man once its assembled and painted. This video really helped me get my head around the rules, I have never played a tabletop game before, I just like painting minis and have done since my D&D days in the late 80's.
Haha brilliant! Really glad to hear you're getting into the game and that you found this video helpful
How’s it going?
77 CG 777777777777x777 FF x77x7 xx7x777777777777f77777777

Finally someone that taught me how to play the game. Thank you!
You're very welcome! Glad to hear it was helpful
, your guides are also super helpful Glass.
I love how you visualized the attacks being blocked or going through by physically matching up dice or moving them past each other. Just a small detail that really helped me picture how things should go
As a total beginner to 40k and tabletop games in general that helped KT seem much less overwhelming thanks 🙏
Thanks very much! Glad you found it useful and hope you enjoy playing 😃
WOW whoever approved the symbol system for distance needs to get sacked. Absolutely ridiculous.
Agreed, it's nothing but a wasteful extra step of translation.
And you now need two pieces of plastic to measure in stead of one piece with one-inch increment markings that you could get from any super market or book store... Which is probably why whoever thought of it got a raise in stead.
@@CordovanSplotchVT yep. Huge indicator that external playtesting was little to none.
this is helpful, i do not have money for normal warhammer, and the rules for kill team were difficult to aproach.
Cheers, really glad that you found it useful!
The method of activation removes most of the 'waiting for your turn' drudgery! Thank you for this easy-to-follow tutorial.
And it also means you're not at risk of losing half of your forces before getting to do anything.
Literally what I was looking for. A simple and clear tutorial to be able to play with my more experienced friends. Thank you a lot
Thank you very much for watching! Glad you found it helpful and hope you enjoy playing Kill Team
Fantastic video, reading the rule book only made me more confused than I was, but this video taught how to play with just a single watch.
Thanks very much! So glad that you found this useful and hope you enjoy playing Kill Team
Thank you for this very clear tutorial! I like the mechanism of alternating activations between sides instead of activating all models on one side en masse.
You're very welcome! Same here it makes for a much more engaging game as you're never waiting too long for your next turn
That's literally the only reason I don't play 40k. It's one of the few tabletop wargames that still clings to mass activation. Even One Page Rules version of 40k uses alternating activations. It's significantly more fun and engaging, and frankly, feels more fair.
@@ForTheOmnissiah yeah those first turns in 40k with mass activation can take forever, especially once you get to 2000 point armies. Not heard of the One Page Rules version but reading through their Grimdark Future and it sounds very interesting to play!
The most clear cut tutorial for KT - look forward to the next one!
Thanks very much!
Great tutorial. I already play 40k, but was looking into kill team and the video was really informative.
Thank you! Glad you found the video useful and hope you enjoy playing kill team
I second that.
finally an actual good tutorial, almost all the kill team tutorials just didn't explain the shit i ws looking for but this really helped
Thanks very much! Really glad that it helped
Supreme explanation - clear, reproducible and a very smooth voice. Thank you so much!
Very kind of you to say so! You're most welcome
great video mate, definitely convinced me to invest. Looks like a really fun way to get into Warhammer without the crushing weight of a 2000 point army
Cheers! Glad you enjoyed it and yeah a lot easier to get into than full on 40K
TLDR: Long time fan of the lore/video games, recently began collecting/painting again and learning to play regular 40k in TTS - Great tutorial! Very comprehensive. Definitely subscribing!
I began collecting and painting Warhammer minis just a couple of months ago for the first time since my folks bought me a box of Termagaunts around 20-something years ago after a friend had introduced me to it. Of course, because I was too young to have my own income, I never continued with the hobby. Started with the Infernus Marines kit to give me a good base of paints to work from. Got those done, then worked on an Ork Warboss in Mega Armour and extra paints (my three armies will eventually be Orks, Death Guard, and Salamanders for some Imperium goodness!).
Just finished my first Myphitic Blight Hauler last night, and my first Pain Boy is already primed XD I also have Mozrog, Squighog Boyz, a set of Poxwalkers, a Brutalis Dreadnought for my Sallies (which comes with Sallies Transfers if anyone is wondering, it does not list which particular transfers come with it on most sites), and I have a Breaka Boss on Troggoth from AoS just because he looks badass and I wanted to paint him.
What brought me here was wanting Ork Kommandos in my army, and then realising that grabbing the full kit with the Guardsman and all extras for gameplay for literally $2 more than the single kit of the Kommandos alone, I was in! Just needed a kickstart to learn how to play this vs 40K regular and your video was perfect. Picking up my Kill Team Box today :)
Easily one of the best "How to play" videos I've seen for any game. Great sound and picture quality and well explained without getting too deep 👏
Thank you very much! Really kind of you to say so and I'm glad you enjoyed it 😃
Very well done! With description, and videography. Easy to follow, learn, and play along basically! Thanks for this
This is very similar to StarWars legion which for me is a huge bonus
This is a wonderful video! I’m brand new to this and this was SO helpful. Excited to try with my friends this weekend!
I finally picked up the book after waffling on KT for years and this was a great help for someone like me who has played many skirmish games for many years but is new to this one specifically. Clear, easy to follow, great examples, and going between this and the book has helped me understand a lot very quickly
Really glad to hear that you found the video helpful! Thanks very much for the comment and hope you enjoy playing Kill Team
I got my first game in yesterday and I seemed like I knew what I was talking about. Had a great time.
Going to be playing my first Kill team games tonight, this video is super helpful! Thank you!
Awesome video for new players! Thank you so much
really well explained, the pacing itself was superb but the clean camera angles to visually show what youre saying really helped
I watched other popular Kill-team instructional videos. Yours is by far the best.
That's really great to hear, thank you!
Thank you for this. So much better than games workshop
Been trying to learn this for days. Thank you for the best tutorial
Thanks very much! Really glad to hear that it helped you learn the game
Great video dude!! Thankyou for taking the time to fully explain how to play kill team. I’m new to the game and found this really useful as I couldn’t find it anywhere else on TH-cam. I haven’t checked ytterbium rest of your channel, but doing a video on which books you need to play/ which are the up to date ones would be amazing. Keep up the good work 👍
Really glad to hear that you enjoyed it and found it useful; hope that you enjoy playing Kill Team! That's a great idea thanks - haven't done a video on the books for it yet so I'll have to look into making one
I've been wanting someone to make a video exactly like this. Thank you! Definitely liked + subbed!
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you very much for the support!
Played my first match yesterday. Really enjoyed it but of course, it's a lot to take in. Watching this helped solidify a lot for me. Thank you sir!
Very informative, no extraneous nonsense. Thank you for this great video!
Thanks very much for watching!
Best tutorial I've seen. Thank you for this!
Thank you for the very kind comment!
A great, simple and very clear tutorial. Thank you.
Thanks very much!
I've been looking all over the place for an actual tutorial that makes sense. Amazing video
Thank you very much! Glad to hear that you found it useful
My this years resolution was to get learn and get in a game of Kill Team by the end of march.
Now that the month is coming to an end, this videos helped me out a lot to get started.
Thanks for the how-to. Can't wait to get my first team and get started.
Thank you for watching! Hope you enjoy the game
Very solid tutorial.
I watched a couple and this is by far the most clear and of reasonable length (not a 12 part x 20min series).
Thanks very much! Yeah wanted to try and get all the necessary info into one video
Excellent video to teach the game, I just got my first box yesterday, many thanks mate. 👍
Thanks very much! Hope you enjoy playing the game 😃
You were so helpfull and easy to watch! Gw could learn a lot from you on how to play videos
Thank you very much! Glad to hear that you enjoyed it and found it useful
Good lord this channel is underrated! Thank you so much! I've shared your video on my discord channels. Hope you get more subscribers soon!
Very kind of you! Really glad to hear that you enjoyed it & thank you for sharing the video
This is the best video on how to play so far :) thank you very much!
Really kind of you to say so! Thanks very much 😃
Very well crafted video! Thank you!
Thanks very much!
This was very well explained, thank you. :)
This is so helpful thank you! I am going to the warhammer store tomorrow for my first match and this helps me get a better grasp of things.
No worries glad you found it useful! That sounds brilliant; hope you enjoy your first match
Great video helped me out alot thanks!
Thanks! I'm new to 40k gameplay and needed this
Thanks for watching & hope you enjoy playing!
Playing my first game tomorrow. Im using veteran guard (painted in yellow raincoats) vs my friends tyranids. Awsome video dude, im feeling alot more confident about the rules now 🙂
It can be a little daunting to get into. You've nailed a to the point introduction.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed and hope that it made it a bit easier to get into
Thank you very much! I was able to set a game in half an hour and start playing! A great explanation indeed, clear and effective! Keep up the awesome work!
That's great to hear! Thank you so much for the supportive comment and I'm glad you found the video helpful!
Just got a Ork set and this is the exact video i need.
Awesome, cheers for this, just brought the starter set a few days ago and painting the figures ready for a game next weekend =)
Thanks very much for watching! Brilliant, hope the painting goes well and you enjoy the game 😁
I learn to play the game in a few days, but that tutorial helps me to prepare. Thank you. ^^
Brilliant! Hope you're enjoying the game and thank you for watching
Great intro to the game. Had my first game today. This highlighted and explained quite a few bits we either glossed over or got plain wrong. (Double shooting admech were quire OP). Would def like to see another going over some advanced stuff like invuns and AP
Thanks very much! Glad you found it useful and hope you enjoyed your first game
Yeah will look into doing a follow-up on more advanced features that weren't covered in this intro video
great video! thank you for breaking it down!
Very well done, sir. Clear, concise and calm. I haven’t played Killteam in a while and even then just a few games. That’s the perfect refresher to get back into it. Thanks a lot!
I also really hope you put out a how to play video for 10th edition in the next months. 🤞
Very kind of you! Really glad you found this useful for getting back into a game or two
Ooh yes the Leviathan box looks immense so watch this space for a 10th edition video 😀
@@JamHammer Rock on! 🤘 I’ll be there for sure. Cheers
Great video, nice explanation for new players.
Minor nitpick: To score an objective, the unit only has to be within circle, i.e. 2 inches of the center of the objective. If there are several units contesting the objectice, the unit, or group mof units with most APl "scores" the objective. Which makesd comms units and high APL (seargeants etc.) so strong!
Well done great tutorial!
Thanks very much!
Very clear, super helpful, no bull***t, great video mate!
Thanks very much! Really glad it was helpful
Best how to play kill team video on TH-cam well done. 🤘🏾🤘🏾
Cheers! Really glad you liked it
after collecting and painting like a maniac i have my first game today, thank you so much for the video i will hve to watch it a few times more but this wiull be so fun
Ah wicked! Hope your game went well and glad to hear this video was useful
Thankyou for this. Im a 40k player and Ive now finally learned how to play kill team. Cheers bud!
No worries at all! Really glad to hear you found it useful
That was really useful, I do play 40K and have been tempted by Kill Team. Now I am very interested. Great content.
Thanks very much! Glad you found it useful and hope you enjoy playing Kill Team
Ridiculously useful. Thank you.
Thanks very much! Glad it was useful
Bloody fantastic video
Great vid. Thank you.
New to Killteam. Really glad I came across this vid.
Thanks very much! Hope you enjoy playing kill team
I just figured out I can play killteam with cardboard, some objects such as mugs and other small things, some cardboard cutouts or pennies, my phone with dice apps, wahapedia and a pair of kommandos and greenskin roaster! Welp time to get my father into killteam I guess!
Haha very true; wish I'd worked that out before putting down £100+ on a starter set! There's a free app here as well that you can use on your phone/computer to track all the rosters for Kill Team to make things even easier:
battlescribe.net
Hope you and your father enjoy playing!
This was a really good tutorial.
You get a sub.
Thanks for the help over here. 😘
Brill! Thanks very much for your support and glad you liked the tutorial 😁
13:10 this is what I needed, how the dice work
Thank you for explaining me, you have gained a new suscriber!
Thank you very much for subscribing!
Just got the death korps killteam the other day so this is fortunate
I play this video for all my friends who wants to get into the game, thank you for making it :)
That's awesome, thank you! Glad you've found it useful :)
Great video! Thanks!
Cheers! Glad you liked it
thanks! this video rocks!
Very helpful!
At 18:57, the model moves from one side of the barricade to the other, paying the standard (circle/2") to do so. The rules, however, state that it costs 2" to move up and down the barricade, so you'd need to measure the remaining 4" of his movement from where he started, not from where he stands on the other side of the barricade. If he used the first 2" of movement to step around the barricade, that's fine, but not if he's hopping over.
This is important because if a model's base is larger than 1" (larger than 25mm), it cannot traverse a barricade with just a dash move or a move of less than 4".
Just reread the rules for traversing over barricades on page 73 of the core rules and you're absolutely right. Many thanks for pointing this out!
Great tutorial.
Ok thank super help full . Got the box for mu b-day
This channel deserves more likes and subscribers!
Thanks very much!
Hmm maybe I've been playing wrong.
For turn 1 we have been picking 1 2 or 3 dice (secretly) then revealing them. The amount of dice we pick is associated with something (free pregame dash, 1 extra barricade, or change 1 operative order).
Depending what you pick determines who has initiative for first turning point
Not at all! You've got it right that you pick those dice as a Scouting option then reveal them to determine first turning point initiative for Matched and Narrative games.
For this video though I was just going with the simplest Open Play style that doesn't feature Scouting
Thank you so much!
Thanks very much for watching!
clearer than the warhammer+ tutorial
Thank you very much!
Finally a tutorial for kill team that makes sense
Thanks for watching!
This helped me so much more than the book did
Thanks very much! Really glad to hear you found this useful
excellent explanation..
Thank you!
Quick question for you, where did you get all the scenery from? Looks amazing
great video !
Thank you!
very helpful
Thank you
01:05 "Im gonna need to grab a friend". One minute in and I have already failed ;-;
This is the first good video I was able to find that actually explains how to start a game of Kill Team for newbies. The only thing I was unable to find in the core book was any mention that you can only perform an action once per activation. I was under the impression that a model could move twice, fight twice, or shoot twice for their actions if they had enough action points. Can you let me know where this is mentioned in the core book? The only thing I can find that hints to it is the Dash action, as if this isn't a rule, it would be completely pointless.
Thanks very much and glad that you found it useful for starting out with Kill Team! Absolutely; in the core book it's mentioned very briefly on page 60 just above the section on Overwatch: "Unless otherwise specified, an operative cannot perform the same action more than once during its activation".
It's really easy to miss as it's just one sentence hidden amidst a bunch of other rules! It's hinted at in the Kommando Dakka Boy example section in italics on page 60 too. Hope this helps
Superb stuff!
Was just wondering, but I heard something about injury rolls. Is that an old rule, or like a newer/specific rule? Also, I heard someone say that the game doesn't just end at turn 4, but has an increasing chance to end every turn after turn 3. Is this a homebrew ruling?
Thanks very much!
Yeah injury rolls are from the previous edition of the game where you had to worry about flesh wounds and being 'taken out of action', but aren't used in this version. In the rulebook it's a fixed four turns so might be a homebrew ruling?
what is the little jingle you use for your intro? Thank you!
It's Blacksmith by Godmode! Their stuff is awesome
nice introduction we used it to get the rules "read" once again before we played today
Thank you! Glad you found it useful for your game
Thanks!
Thank you!
Very good but you did not mention how you can switch operatives orders in all subsequent turning points after the first turning point.
Great video! but I have a question: At the start of the 2nd turning point, when you activate an operative, you can change its order, BUT Does it keep that order he had from the 1st turning point until you activate it? i.e. Operative "A" has a conceal order in the 1st turning point. The turning point ends and the 2nd one begins; Is it still under the conceal order rules until you activate it? thanks in advance!
Thanks very much! You've got it yeah: the operative keeps the order assigned to it from the 1st turning point until it's activated again on the 2nd turning point and so on. So operative "A" still has the conceal order until you activate it on the second turning point when you can keep it or change it to engage
Great question and hope this helps!
@@JamHammer Thanks so much for the answer sir!
Regarding the fight @ 22:35
If the 4 he rolled is a valid save, could you use it + your free save from being in cover to cancel the crit instead of just 1 normal?
Great question! You could indeed as the free save from being in cover counts towards your normal saves pool so you can combine them to cancel the crit
