Thanks! We're having a blast playing and making the battle reports and it's the support of the community that keeps us at it.

You're right. Athanean might have been more useful. But I think in general psychic checks on a 5 man squad are risky cause of perils, so you tend to not take them. Also, great point on the kentai assaulting out of transports.

It's in close combat weapons under servo arms p138. There's a description and a close combat profile

@@fareastwargaming woot! Thank you! ☺

We love them also. They are a pretty tricky legion to get right and not the most beginner friendly of legions, so it mainly veterans and hard core Tzeentchers that collect 😅

Fool us once 😉

There's a lot of other khorne fanatics right there with you 😂

I'd be happy with just plastic chain axes, Caedere Weapons, and upgrade sprues (shoulder pads, bare heads with nails, Sarum-pattern helms, maybe a banner?). We don't need much to make our own excellent characters as the XIIth Legion.😮

Поддерживаю, сколько же годноты для конверсий будет))

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.

We're looking at more ZM content. We just have to come up with some more unique scenarios, because the few available can get pretty predictable in terms of army comps and strategies.

Will try. It's a tricky line to walk between video length and what to record. Will try get a dice heavier video out soon 😉

Merry Christmas to you too. We'll be going strong for 2025 also so stay tuned!

That's a great question and we love the way you're looking at building a force. But you are right, it's all down to etiquette. There are several ways to do it and you've named some. We at FEW have agreed not to put tech marines with lascanon squads. The killing power creeps up another notch. If its friendly play, then we try and balance the lists to make sure the opponent at least has a chance of managing the units brought. Informing opponents about Lords of War is also a curtesy. Other than that, I generally take a step back and say 'would this be fun for me to play against?' There are no hard and fast rules. For our narrative tournaments we host, we do police the lists to keep an eye out for 'overpowered' combinations. But generally, if you go for stronger units they are expensive and you tend to sacrifice mission scoring.

@@fareastwargaming I appreciate the tips guys :) I want to avoid being "that guy" in a game, but at the same time models are expensive, so taking stuff that works vs stuff that's too powerful is a balancing act.

Personally, Jason and I follow the 'rule of cool' more than anything else. The unique units of the legions that may not always be the most optimal. Or follow a theme for the force when designing it.

I catch alot of hate becuase I play army of all contemptors

Glad you enjoyed it.

All good points. Sadly magister of prospero only effects the warlords unit and gives an extra movement reaction, so it's not the most practical. Plus Ahriman doesn't get it. The lowering of leadership has made psychic powers more dangerous to activate on a whim. Thanks for watching

Or mechanicus force is in the works. Sadly don't think we can get it ready for a Christmas bash 🫤

The Dark Angels are definitely versatile with their ability to mix and match hexagramatons. They were the template for other legions after all, but they don't excel in any specific area. Also, they Warlord traits are subpar. The thousand sons have the ability to be fielded in a variety of ways, but they suffer greatly from points creep as things get expensive very fast.

​@@fareastwargaming Very true regarding the 1k Sons. But even with just the minor arcanas on base line troopers can come in handy! As always, love seeing you guys having a blast!

They are fun, but lots of rules to keep track of with all the various wings, etc. More new painted models coming soon 😁

More to come before Xmas. But also stayed turned for 2025!

Your welcome. Hope you enjoyed it.

Are you talking about the plasma generators? If so, it's simply white base coat. Talisar Blue Contrast and then a drybrush with Ulthuan Grey.

Yeah. Make us make more content GW 😂

Yes. Restricting models to certain load outs seems like a poor mechanics decision. But Gdubs has never prioritised game mechanics over other factors... Would be sad for them to stifle hobby creativity. Especially in Horus Heresy.

Plastic Mkii Assault would be amazing. A while to wait, if ever since we have mkvi assaults...

​@@fareastwargaming There is hope. We have Mk 3 and Mk 6 tacticools. Might be a bit but I will wait before grabbing any jump pack troopers since I have themed my XIIth legion around Mk3 foot sloggers, and I'd like matching Mk2 jump pack troopers for them.

Yeah that's one option. I feel that if they follow this, there will be a lot of regions house ruling some changes.

Yeah the hammer is like marmite. You love it or ya hate it. But the conversion to a more conventional weapon looks rather straightforward so isn't the end of the world.

Thanks for the support. We'll keep improving as we go 😊

Yep... Silence then now they undermine our predictions! We will have our response out soon.

It would require a bit of work, but its definitely possible. Not for the faint of heart though doing that conversion.

Thanks, we had a ton of fun playing this one and appreciate you watching!

We're making some in house squadrons. Hope to have some more reports in early 2025.

Agreed. A lot of the AI missions play better in campaign scenarios with extra skills and Aces. But they can be fun in a no holds barred brawl. It just actually really fun to play :D

That's great to hear! We will now need to find some real Kill Team players to walk us through 3rd edition properly 😂

Is this Ossified's kill team rule set?

Yes. Very impressed with the thoroughness

Likely we were too caught up in the rolls. our first time filming Kill Team and there are quite a few rules to track. A lot of things to learn for next time. But thanks for pointing it out. It makes us take specific note of certain rules. We'll 'try' not to make the same mistake again 😂

@@fareastwargaming was very intrested to watch video anyway! Waiting for next one. What legions you have in your community besides Iron Hands and Emperor's Children?

For Kill Team, we would have nearly all of them since it's so few models. 😊

@@fareastwargaming pretty excited to see some salamanders or white scars!

Love the idea. We are looking at getting our ducks in a row for a BFG/imperialis/Aeronautica/AoD/ZM Istvaan III campaign... Lots of stuff needed 😂 For BFG, my suggestion is to keep it simple. We use the rr30k ruleset. Let us know how it goes

@fareastwargaming sounds super fun! Good luck

If you look at the rules for fear. It only effects morale, regroup and pinning. Sadly not psychic. (Richard) I would have written the rule to effect all leadership cause it makes sense that it would be harder to concentrate when fearful. But rules as is, fear doesn't effect psychic checks.

@@fareastwargaming thank you so much for solving that issue for us.at least now in our games 1000sons will have a fighting chance(that -1 from fear really hurt).looking forward to your next video :) .

Yep, each of the legions has their own traits and special operators. Gives some nice flavor to the game of Kill Team. Adding Reactions also put more importance to activation sequences, cause you can only react if you haven't been activated.

We've been looking at Far East Wargaming Slogan Shirts. It's a constant debate for us!

​@@fareastwargaming "far east wargaming: we might be far east but we're Heresy Adjacent"?

Yeah, if you Google 'Heresy Kill Team' you can find the rules. They are quite well thought and fleshed out. For the objectives, we decided for the first time for a Kill Team report on the channel to keep it 'standard'. Also, the points can only be captured once per turning point and having the reversible objective marker is helpful. But we'll look into more traditional heresy style objectives for future battle reports.

Thanks for the support. We have fun making them, so glad you enjoy watching them.

Yep. It only takes 8 models. The rules are 'relatively' straightforward and honestly, it's just a load of fun. Quick to play when you get used to it cause it's only 4 Turning Points. Great for dipping your toe into the Horus Heresy range.

@fareastwargaming I'm going to check it out. My brother is interested in heresy but an avid infinity player. I plan on meeting him half way.

The heresy rules are on 2nd edition. You set status during the initiative step. But Turning Point 1 it's done during deployment.

We're looking at more Kill Team cause it's easier for newcomers to build an 8 man force from 40k players 😂

Glad you enjoyed the battle report!
