    just a week ago my wife said she wanted to get into warhammer, after alot of investigating were getting ready to bite the bullet then we went into our local game shop and this dude was hosting a kill team event, he explained alot of the game to us and was so friendly. Next week we are going to play our first match of kill team and this video helped me confirm its better to learn which armies i like before dropping 300+ dollars on some thousand suns lmao.

      @@archangel0891 Bro I got into 40k three days ago. Already dropped 300€ with a three days in a row streak visiting my local Warhammer store. Now I discovered Kill Team with all of their dope factions and I think I have a problem lol. Being an impulsive shopper who loves the dopamine of buying something new doesn't help either xD

    I like to play and collect different playstyles and aesthetics and Kill Team offers that variety without spending an army's worth of money. I also like it because it's easier to gift a friend one box to start playing rather than buying one unit for 40k.

    I went to watch a 5v5 warhammer 40k game at my lgs and some of the guys there told me about kill team and since then I've been hooked on it.
    My favorite part about kill team is how quickly the back and forth is, I don't have to wait 20 minutes for my opponent to move all his troops and then do everything on their turn while I just sit there and roll dice. Another plus for me is how you just need like 1 box of guys and you're all set.

    Keep spreadin' that good word brothers!
    I've branched into 10th edition now, but started with Kill Team and it's still my favorite. Awesome for anyone who likes to change up their playstyle often, as every kill team plays very differently. I feel more invested in my Kill Team models too, as the individual models and characters build a history battle after battle. Either with hilarious failures, or epic heroic deeds. Where as if you take them to 10th edition, it's just a squad of dudes, that usually just get shot off the board, or don't feel as impactful in the overall game.

  • @Dalandow
    @Dalandow Год назад +11

    I love me some Killteam. But as a skirmish game, it is needlessly convoluted. The rules need an "Age of Sigmar simplification", like we got for 10th edition Warhammer 40K. Compared to Warcry and other Skirmish games, it's more difficult to learn the basics.

    I jumped into 40k 2 years ago, but for over a year time, space and money jas prevented me from keeping up with the shiftng meta and change to 10th.
    My buddy, who got me into 40k initially, bought the kill team box with the Kommandos and Kreig Vets in it, so we gave it a shot. I love the game, and am transitioning to it.
    Current plan is to pick up a pair of Primaris Crusader Squad boxes to make an Intercession Squad and then hunt bits to make the smaller members into that newly revealed scout squad. Cheers!

    First, great video and a lot of good points. What holds me back is that I like dreadnought, terminators, tanks, armigers and so on. Secondly the tokens. ugh, the tokens. they just annoy me / things to keep track of. Not sure if anyone else feels that way but I could do without the move red, shoot blue, and tokens for every model. thankfully the model count is low so that is appealing.

  • @nedash71
    @nedash71 Год назад +1

    This video made an affirmative case for every skirmish game, though. The points you made for Kill Team are the same for Shatterpoint, MCP, etc. I'd appreciate your insight into how the skirmish games out there are different from each other. For instance: I've played a fair bit of Kill Team and one game of Shatterpoint and I noticed these differences: 1) You win a game of Shatterpoint by pushing the other guy off of objectives, but it never feels like any of your characters are in peril (by design, I think). Characters have so many hit points that they are super-unlikely to be dead by the end of the game. 2) Consequently, there are no victory conditions for doing things to other characters in Shatterpoint like there are in Kill Team. Kill team models can be killed in one - two shots, so design space is available for things like Rob & Ransack or Headhunter. 3) Line of sight is much easier to figure out in Shatterpoint, and there is nothing counterintuitive like non-reciprocal shooting.

    Less hobby supplies is a good point.

    • @Narcian150
      @Narcian150 Год назад +2

      This is the only reason in the list that is basically not true. To start painting, you need to get the required brushes and the full paint pots. The initial costs on hobby supplies are identical. You can't rent a few days of a brush and get 2 ml of paint You are using less of the paint pot and then just not using it. Even with a whole army of 2000 pts 40k, you will not go through those initial pots of paint. It takes a large amount of kill teams to get over the turning point where this costs less than a second 40K army. By that point you already bled your wallet dry on this hobby one way or another. :P

  • @uwesca6263
    @uwesca6263 10 месяцев назад +1

    I like it from an collecting fewpoint. I started with dawm of war and have a kinda catch them all attitude towards the factions. (Well atleast most of them) with kill team i can collect one box have fun painting it and can play with these units. And dont need to buy a combat patrol or more.
    Another more narrative reason:
    Since warhammer is a best of of multiple franchises its easy to make small narrative games. Like guard vs black painted gaunts that uses genestealer rules on gallowdark terrain as a boardgame version of "aliens". Or necrons as terminators.

      You'd be surprised man! I joined the hobby through Killteam, 40k always seemed like just too much of a hurdle comparatively. Recently dipped my toes into 40k to try it out and its easier to learn and play in every single way to me. Games are longer, but 10th edition made 40k easier than Killteam lol.

  • @brendanarmstrong7802

    I hope you'll still continue doing the occasional Warcry report, though. They may not do as well as the Kill Team videos, but they'll bring in eyes that are otherwise focused on the fantasy side of GW's products. (And secretly, we all know it's the game better designed for quick beer and pretzels skirmish battles. Kill Team is a crunchy, complex game.)

    @28kiriku 10 месяцев назад +1

    Best part is that it is more dynamic than regular 40k because one player moves an operative and then the other player plays his turn, so you are focused on the game and don't wanna kill yourself as you watch someone play his entireee army and zone out ....

    • @MrVloeistof
      @MrVloeistof 7 месяцев назад

    More modern rule concepts like alternate activation and dice pools make for a better experience. The disappointing thing is that the layouts are symmetrical. Having the choice of side should mean something. Infinity works with asymmetric layouts. I also like that the secondary missions give a feel of asymmetric warfare.

  • @d12g6
    @d12g6 Год назад +2

    the most important thing about killteam vs warhammer 40k 10th edition is that the teams plays like it should be.
    an example, i play thousand sons in 10th, they feel good to play, but i'm not feeling the vibe of "evil space wizards". In killteam, warpcoven feels like i'm playing that, plus the options to customize your operatives.
    killteam should be the abridged version of big brother 40k, but now it is the exact opposite

  • @slemph2214
    @slemph2214 10 месяцев назад

    2 more reasons I enjoy killteam over 40k:
    My first one is the biggest one for me: The interactions / storytelling.
    In 40k I barely have any cool storytelling memories. "My squad of 5 sisters with meltas killed a tank" is just... not... dope? Melee is boring as fuck and usually is only a "my 20 melee guys charge your 15 shooting people and now your guys are gone".
    In killteam you have dope storytelling moments like a guy with a flamer hiding behind a wall, jumping out in the right moment, killing 3 people and saving the game.
    Melee is actually interactive and ANYONE can "technically" survive melee by carefully parrying and having the dice gods on their side.
    The 2nd reason is that it's easier to transport and setup. I like 40k, but having to travel half an hour with my giant hard-plastic transport case is annoying as fuck. I have to transport this giant case and then setup my miniatures for like 15 minutes BEFORE the game even starts. Hell nah, now I have this tiny thing that fits in my normal everyday bag with my 6-15 miniatures.

    @tannerfinkle5581 Год назад

    I would say Warcry is more expensive than KT. Playing "compendium" warbands is super expensive unless you already play that army, and almost the bespoke teams are better if you have multiple boxes to get access to multiple of the unique fighters.
    Though KT does have its fair share of 2 box teams, thats the max youll get, and theres tons of teams that only use 1 box.
    Also the inflexibility of KT makes it easier to learn strategies when the teams are (almost) always going to be the same

    I got into Kill Team as a game to play while I build up a 40k army to play some 40k, and after a while I see the transition into playing 40k as not even worth it. I really enjoy Kill Team, and a majority of the aspects of 40k I just don't like when compared to Kill Team. The games take way longer, it has significantly more rule bloat, you can feel like you've already lost within the first 25% of playtime but don't want to concede because that's not fun and is unfair to the opponent who wants to play a full game of 40k... the list goes on. I like just buying a box of figures and having a brand new playable Kill Team out of the box. If I don't like it, who cares! Buy another box and try them out. You really don't get the same experience in 40k at all. Two extremely different games, and having played some 40k with friends armies, I'm gonna stick with Kill Team and Warcry as my go-to games.

For me adding some of these will make the game way better.

However I think you focused on the wrong aspects in this video, most DIE hard 40k players I know have this common misconception that kill team is still a small points 40k game? Where as now it is its own standalone game with great rules (maybe ripping off SW legion alittle) so yeah you need to play onto the fact that it doesnt feel like a mini 40k, you still roll lots of dice, you still have cool strats and secondaries and abilities and most of all you get emotionally attached to your minis.

    I find it has way too many rules and is far too vague with certain things. There are a few models in the game that have several paragraphs of special rules. It's just too much!

    YOU should post batrep videos instead of trying to convince us to play Kill Team (we already are convinced)
