How To Kill Team | 10 Tips For New Players 

I would add a little thing to point 3 "measuring and marking" - once you have an idea of what you want to do, communicate with your opponent so that you both agree the move is possible. Firstly, their different perspective or knowledge of something you don't know/forgot may influence the move, secondly you avoid arguments later. Examples are: "Here, I think I can move to score this objective but still be obscured from your side of the table, right? "Here I should be outside of your charge range. Am I correct or do you have something that can affect how far you can charge?" etc. Keep communicating and agreeing with your opponent on what you are doing and want to achieve.

Damn, the tactical hug idea is brilliant

Super awesome topic. And Kill Team is definitely not a stripped down 40k, totally different game.

Just wanted to impart some tips that i use my self: For units with 3apl or could otherwise move shoot and dash in one activation, moving from behind a wall, then shooting, followed by a dash back into the fiirst spot ensures that your operatives are not visable to your opponents when they want to return the favor. Also learn about the concept of backwards planning to help the decsion making process. Start by Viaualizing the desired endstate for a turning point. For example, You know an objective is or is not reachable by either player at any given time as this an not hidden information. Therefore, pick key operatives that could be used to run up those objectives while not being incapacitated before you get a chance to use them. Those objectives are also ones that could benefit from barricades near them. After that, identify terrain that can operatives can move to say safe until they can get to that terrain the following activation.

So useful. All of it. Your script is clear and concise, and the table top examples illustrate direction and strategic play exceptionally well. Liked and subscribed.

This is a great presentation. Love the use of the visual components.

I've binged your Kill Team guides, they are incredibly thorough and well spoken. Thanks for helping me get started!

Was waiting for this one. Thank you so much

Incredible content! This channel is amazing.

Hey man, just stumbled into your videos and I gotta say, it is the first time I finally understood how this forsaken game works! I always get confused with the rules but a lightbulb is finally lighting up thanks to you! Keep up the good work!

As someone relatively new to Killteam, this was a phenomenal breakdown. Top shelf job, mate.

Always like your videos. I have been playing KT for about 8 months and struggle to win (4 wins and 24 losses). But I believe a lot of the losses are due to incorrect rule decisions on top of my own “must kill them all” mentality. Your videos have helped fix several rule errors on our part (cover line crossing heavy piece of a vantage point, is a model visible to itself,etc). Thank you for what you do

Just starting to get into kill team, so definitely appreciate these tips. That said, as a true ork player I will never ignore an opportunity to krump any gitz in range, even if some of the lads die in the process

Was sent this by a mate. Awesome video 👍🏻👍🏻 Just a quick question on the bonus tip 11. Could you explain this again? I watch a couple of times and still don’t get the mechanics of the tip 😊

with tip number 5, I played a game the other day and my friend put a barricade between the map edge and a wall with exactly enough space so that his corsairs could move freely around them but my larger based phobos space marines had to spend an inch of movement to get over.

Comment time!

Great video :) I just can't get my head around the last point with daisy chaining for cover. if every operator has an engage order, daisy chaining would be possible, right? LoS with engage order is: visible and not obscured, which is true for these models.

wait what is that back and forth deploy new rule? i can't find anything about it on wahapedia, i thought that the defender deploys all the models and then the attacker does the same

At the very end did you mean to say that the operative being used for cover needs to also be in Line of Sight? You said must be Visible but then said they couldn't be daisy chained, but a concealed operative in front being used for cover would still likely be visible?

Hey, where did you get your damage counters?

Please take this potato 🥔 it will help you in the algorithm

12:44 What? You still have two hits you have to deal.

I would counter the "you have to do mission objectives. Don't just scream and kill your oponent's models" thing with KIF. Killing Is Fun. I am playing this to have fun. Piss off with your "you have to play to win". No. I play to have fun. Am I losing? Yes. Does that substract from my enjoyment? No. If I am basically throwing by roleplaying a World Eater, then I am doing it on purpose and I don't care about winning. The most important rule and tip you can give is to have fun.
