So in less than a month I will be starting a (Painted) Kill Team Campaign with my gaming group using the rules by The Heralds of Ruin: http://heralds-of-ruin.blogspot.ca/p/ki ... rules.html
I am torn between three armies (mind you I only own three armies).
Tyranids - Mostly because they have always been what I play.
Sisters - I just bought an entire force and so will have plenty to paint and play. That and I LOVE the Flamer theme and on a few test games using the rules I had so many people on fire! LOL
Black Templars - With my Sisters I got a decently sizable Black Templar list (that and I just bought a Crusader Kit). I would be wanting more CC for these guys where as the Sisters would be more shooty.
I did up some test lists too!
Sisters:
Played the above list twice. Worked well, tons of people on fire. The biggest thing I came across was vs other shooty lists. With Flamers you don't get to stand back vs a shooty list and so you have to advance forward. That and T3 across the field was not good vs Plasma guns.LEADER -34
Celestian -34
-Power Sword
-Brazier of Holy Fire
CORE -70
Battle Sister x5 -70
-1 has a Heavy Flamer
SPECIAL -94
Seraphim x2 -50
-Both have Hand Flamers
Retributors x2 -44
-Both have Heavy Flamer
Tyranids:
A fast list, that and I think the Lictor has to be one of the few models equipped for KT.LEADERS -50
Alpha -40
-Flesh Hooks
CORE -50
Hormagaunt x2 -50
SPECIAL -110
Ravener x2 -60
Lictor -50
Second list options:
The above list is pure creepy crawly. I played it twice before with great success. Flamers hurt though as they just eat through Stealers.LEADER -60
Broodlord -60
CORE -84
Stealers x6 -84
SPECIAL -50
Lictor -50
comes to 194
I haven't decided on a BT list. I made up a fun one to try but not sure if it would do well:
Black Templars:
The above list, like I said, I'm not sure how well it would do. I haven't seen many AP2 weapons but it's always that single roll you fail that gets you.LEADER -60
Sergeant -60
-Termie Armour
-Hammer and Shield
CORE -135
Termie x3 -135
-Hammer and Shield x3
Comes to 195
Any who, anyone recommend a list or army I should play? I'm open to anything really, I have just less than a month to make my 200 point list (well 250 point list but you can only field 200 in a single game -this is so you can field other things too).
I will be playing against Space Wolves, Tau and Dark Angels for sure. Maybe Necrons and Dark Eldar though too.
Thanks all!
