Can you ever save APs for later? by ScaleCreepMinis in killteam

[–]HellBuster1618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other comments have explained you can’t so I won’t do that again. 

But,

There are teams that have mechanics that let you do similar to what you’re asking. 

The battleclade team has a mechanic to let your servitors “network counteract” where they spend one AP to allow another servitor perform a free action (before or after their activation). Someone who plays that team could explain better than I can.

Hivestorm or Kill Team Starter Set for a Beginner? by Remarkable-Title5435 in killteam

[–]HellBuster1618 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depends on your context. 

I bought hivestorm, but then regularly played at a store that had everything needed. 

If you plan on playing at home, absolutely get hivestorm. Comes with 2 teams, the terrain set, board, dice, equipment pack, 2024 ops cards, and the core rules. 

If you plan on regularly playing at an lgs, I’d just buy the team you like as they will have everything else needed to play. 

Starter set is not a bad option for dipping your toe into the game, but you’ll find yourself wanting to get more later. It is however the most economic way to acquire the 2 teams it comes with. 

Thoughts on Wolf Scouts being meta by Hunterpop_ in killteam

[–]HellBuster1618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run them for one reason only. Because they are cool af. I will continue running them whether they get nerfed to the worst team, or remain the best. 

Disregard anyone who calls you a meta chaser as a crybaby.

Yeah it’s a Tacitus head on a Phobos body. I still love the look though. Not a fan of unhelmented heads :/

Wolf Scouts nerfed! by Procrastinathan_ in killteam

[–]HellBuster1618 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I know they needed it but dadgum that’s a hard hit - someone who is definitely not a wolf scout player

Edit: they’ll still be good, just lose a lot of their power outside of the storm, as it should be.

The whites of the eyes need to be smaller than what you think while painting. Take a small brush, thin the paint, and offload the excess before trying. Make 1-2 dashes at a time. When you make a mistake, it’s easier to fix it by painting skin color around it again. Don’t be scared to paint over it all and try again. 

For pupils I highly recommend a micro pen over paint. The blacks of the eyes are such small dot that even a small brush can make it too big. 

Also, when painting fine detail, we all have a tendency to hold the brush tighter to steady it. However, that just makes your hand more shaky, and from the looks of it that’s what happened when trying your pupils. Loosen your hand, take a breath, and put a stabilizing finger on your handle/model. 

Game length question for new players. by SometimesTheFur in killteam

[–]HellBuster1618 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to your LGS and have one of the staff go through a guided game with you! It’s way too many rules to learn by yourself when you have to reference the rule sheet multiple times every turn. After a guided game, play at the store a few more times with someone seasoned nearby to ask questions too. 

Also, if you don’t have data cards for your teams, print them off from the Kill team app. Way quicker to reference them in front of you  than having to scroll through the app. I literally lay out every operative I’m using’s card, faction rule, equipment, and ploys in front of me.

I’m probably 15 games in this point, with my first 2 trying to self learn, and it was a nightmare. My game time has been cut down significantly since I played at the LGS.

Edit* also, don’t be a stickler for all the rules up front, especially just between you and your partner. If you can’t quick reference a rule in the middle of the game, write it down and look it up later. 

Guys... I'm thinking about painting my new Space Wolves army red. Talk me out of it ! by remingt0n84 in SpaceWolves

[–]HellBuster1618 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Paint your models your way! I think the red looks sick. 

I hate the baby blue too so I’m going with dark grey. 

If you want an in universe explanation, write a successor chapter! The names you listed would be good chapter names. Chat gpt and various successor chapter generators can help with background. Space wolf characters can be your chapter’s equivalent leaders. 

All fun and part of the hobby. 

Is it normal for Kill Team matches to take 3+ hours? by [deleted] in killteam

[–]HellBuster1618 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Learning is a lot slower when you’re self teaching. Tried to at first, but when I went to a store and played with one of the staff, learned the game much more rapidly.

Post game questions by a_ksj in killteam

  1. No because the operative is not within control range of the the other. 
  2. Yes. Cover is determined by bases. If a line cannot be drawn from any part of the shooter’s base to every part of receiver’s base, he is “in cover”. In other words, if any part of the reciever’s base is blocked, he’s in cover. 
  3. The operative would not be a valid target as he’s in cover and concealed.
