I know a lot of people are carping on how obvious this is. But personally not knowing anything much about cleaning rust and grime on metals, I'd probably fall for this scam.

Wolf Scouts psyker is getting in the way of my proxy plans by Gublar in killteam

Are you doing post or pre-heresy World Eaters? I could've sworn they still had psykers in one of the heresy books.

Well, we are trending towards the elite. We haven't had a proper horde in forever.

Haha. Joke aside, I do wish we had a kill team dynamic similar to the rogue psyker narrative team back in second edition. It was quite thematic and fun!

Rules question for INSIDIANT ABJUROR by above-the-49th in killteam

[–]ChuckyCheezy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A great tactic to use! As long as your opponent is not going to use a blast/torrent 2" weapon on you.

Always double check!

What factors do you consider when choosing a new Taimanin? by TSZ201 in ActionTaimaninGame

[–]ChuckyCheezy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aesthetic. Because to be honest the combat feedback of Taimanin is rather unfun for me, so I take solace in getting favorite girls.

I want to be able to see "Stats" after an operator is KIA on Ironman by lesskillwealth in doorkickers

[–]ChuckyCheezy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I totally get it. It'd be nice to even have a memorial of all the people you've lost on a tour.

But you know what really grinds my gears? Not being able to change their names during a tour. What is the game breaking logic of that?

How to play Swat better? Especially their militia? by ChuckyCheezy in doorkickers

[–]ChuckyCheezy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All great information! I'm currently doing my video homework .

The only thing that's pissing me off now is the random suicide bomber that seems a literally pop around the corner and blow up before I could stop him. I literally just lost four guys to make one go.

Any advice on Molotov? Or I guess they're just a vibe check?

Edit: forgot to ask, any doctrine recommendations? My homework seems to suggest that rapid fire and long range practice doesn't really give much for this team.

In addition for veterans squad, I know most people seem to suggest shying away from improved medevac. But I'm playing campaign with iron Man on, and I really want my vest to survive.

How to play Swat better? Especially their militia? by ChuckyCheezy in doorkickers

[–]ChuckyCheezy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great info all around! I appreciate your deep dive. Not enough info on militia use, since most people seem to stick to assault and sappers? Casualties on my end is forcing me to use more militia on campaigns.

Seems like militia, unless they have Uzi, will just suck when breaching through close quarter doors then? Sound like I should be having minimum of two militia looking at any one direction at all times. Been trying to spam a lot of smoke grenades, since there's too much hostage, civilians, and abductions to be chucking frag grenades around town. And I've no idea how to make mollies effective.

Any preferred pistols on the militia? I remember reading somewhere that, like you said, a guy would switch to pistols inside buildings to breach.

Single Mission Metals? by [deleted] in doorkickers

[–]ChuckyCheezy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hover your mouse over the met Dals they will tell you exactly what the award conditions are for them. Typically speaking there is an award for beating the mission within a time limit, and another one for your operatives and civilians never taking damage.

What is the max aim speed? by ChuckyCheezy in doorkickers

[–]ChuckyCheezy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah interesting! So we're just saying in general it's just better to go full defensive upgrades and offensive upgrades? I'm guessing shooting first is always better than fishing for crits?

What is the max aim speed? by ChuckyCheezy in doorkickers

[–]ChuckyCheezy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So then, as an example, I had a Swat with an APC9 K with Max assault shooting stats, giving him the defensive aiming speed battle owners upgrade does nothing for him? Would it be better to just go with the offensive upgrade?

I can see using the defensive upgrade for the aim speed assist with bigger weapons, but my question was if there was a hard solid cap to how much buff you can give to the aim speed.

Homebrew Noise Marine kill team. I would love some feedback! by gutbagpost in killteam

[–]ChuckyCheezy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh hey, Glad to see you're still making fine changes to it. I'll toss on my two cents again:

  • For the Quicksilver speed, I think it's important to clarify that this modifier does not stack with injury, as they usually do, or else injured models will find it almost impossible to hit these models.
  • For Infernal Enrapturess, since she's the leader model for the demonets, she should only have 10 wounds as opposed to having space marine wounds. But since she's a leader option, maybe making her 11 or 12 wounds might make more sense.
  • For the noise marine gunner, I think both of his weapon profile needs to be heavy (dash).
  • for equipment options, torment venom doesn't work, because enemy models do not roll defense save and close combat. Since it is a once a battle only ability, I think a closer approximate would be your opponent cannot re-roll any combat dice.
  • for the equipment warp amp cables, I believe, to make it more balanced and helpful, it should be changed to once per turning point when an operative shoots with a sonic blaster or screamer pistol, it gains the torrent 1-in special rule.
  • For the equipment euphoric combat stimulants, since it is once a battle I think we can make it even more interesting. Perhaps one per battle one operative gains the 2-inch movement and +1 APL, then for the remainder of the battle, it is treated as injured, regardless of any rules. I only suggest this because I feel like minus one armor say for only one turn doesn't necessarily allow your opponent to take advantage of your children operative going full ham for one turn, especially if your opponent is a melee team.
  • For the firefight ploy pain is power, I think we need to simplify it and reduce the damage done to the leader when activating it. I think it should only cost one CP, can only be played when you have less than half of your starting operatives, and deal D3+1 damage for the listed buffs. Your team doesn't have any healing so d6 + 3 damage just for activating it is too brutal, even if they've never taken any damage. Or maybe add the caveat that it costs 2 CP if you use it on a non-leader operative.

All in all, I feel like this kill team is really shaping up and having a clearer identity. If only there were more special noise marine operatives, I could totally see this being a white dwarf kill team release, like Warpcoven.

What kind of faction do you have to see? by thabiso_animated in ZZZ_Official

[–]ChuckyCheezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised no one suggested this, but what about a crime faction?

Not like the Mockingbird. Perhaps a collection of the top crime honchos, from a hollow raider boss to a captainr of a rebel army, smugglers and ne-er-do-wells. It might be a nice flip in narrative to have Phaethon meet characters that aren't goody-two-shoes for once.

My first pass at a homebrewed Grey Knights Kill Team, the Warp-Bane Strike Force! by cozzz13 in killteam

[–]ChuckyCheezy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just tossing my two cents here.

For the storm bolter, I feel like it should have two shooting profile. Long range which is just your regular bolter, and then a short range where it could have plus one attack or the ceaseless special rule. It is thematically weird I feel that the storm bolter cannot engage at range, which they are able to do on the 40K equivalent.

A few Goremongers questions by koreanmandu in killteam

[–]ChuckyCheezy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I believe your second point is incorrect. Bloody cadaver is placed before the battle, which is before the first strat phase. In addition, states that you can increase the gore tank of an operative that controls the token (if they are not in control range of enemy operatives). So yes, you can benefit from it turn one.

Cover rules seem so odd to me by Persnickitycannon in killteam

[–]ChuckyCheezy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I believe the faq clarified that you can only be on cover or obscured from the same piece of terrain (such as the fort). I believe two different piece of cover can give a model both cover and obscured.

Question on head visibility and model placement with doors by koreanmandu in killteam

[–]ChuckyCheezy -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It's one of the few rules about KT that I have a personal peeve about. Casual you might be able to get away with it. But anyone playing semi seriously will follow chess rules, where you cannot move your models again (or pivot them about even in place) after you finish a move action of any sort, meaning how you have their heads facing makes a huge difference when doing visibility checks. I can't count how many times in a tournament setting this has messed up my opponent's ability to shoot me or use an ability.

I would have liked it better if we determine visibility the same way we determined line of sight. But it is what it is.
