As a GSC player, I don't think I could like this team much more! Not necessarily a game breaker in terms of power, but so thematic and a whole bunch of thought seems to have gone into how they should be played. I agree with a team that has a mix of APL/having to make the choice of more models vs more power, makes the building of a team so much more interesting, hopefully all future teams will head that way. This version of Kill Team doesn't really seem to be setup for a full "Elites type expansion" more smaller team based additions over time. We know there is a spot on most data cards for "cults" or "chapters" so maybe that's how they end up pumping up some teams and maybe a way to help keep the compendium teams relevant?! Maybe I have gone off track! 🤣

Yeah I totally agree. I think I maybe how I worded it was confusion, but I agree on not getting an “Elites” release, I think that niche could be filled with cool character models like Wyrmblade does. This edition is so different I just can’t see how an elites book could work. Subfaction traits would be perfect IMO and it seems like from comments I’ve seen a lot of people agree. Hopefully, GW is actually listening and maybe we’ll get it eventually. It would be crazy to have the subfaction spot and then never give it to us 😆

I think with the recent WD teams coming out, GW is setting up for longevity of the game. There are so many(infinite?) combinations of teams they can put out, and keep the meta changing. I think the compendium is fine also(there are some gems and duds). Like you said, the GSC compendium team still runs a better melee team than the new WD team. In the future they could make a more melee focused team for GSC, which may screw up the compendium team, but like others said, an elite expansion that only effects the compendium, but leaves the bespoke teams could work very well.

A good mechanism for buffing compendium teams and getting the elite type units in would be the order/chapter/regiment slot that is currently unused. You put out a book or whatever and in it you could have a few said character type profiles. So a interesting Ecclesiarchy; Bloody rose APL 3 Superior as a example or the imperial guard; cadian; Ogryn you want ;) I just don’t see them doing that slot the simple way it was done in KT18. Game is too complex for the old implementation. That unused part pretty much could be every KTs expansion slot with characters to Fire teams.

I'm with you on this one. If they do choose to do elite elites i hope they do it in separate, much smaller teams (so we would have 2 or 3 choice of teams for orks for example instead of one list with all the options. Like, kommandos, Free Booters and Ork Nobs, so they can balance each list more precisely to the rest of the meta. More options to the current lists or less "streamlined and designed" teams than what we are seeing so far, and I fear we will be going backwards again :) That does not mean we can't see teams designed around specific powerfull minis like a rogue trader or an ork nob, Ibram Gaunt, a named demon or a chaos champion for that matter. As long as the teams are specificly designed around balancing and showcasing those characters, much like it seems the Wyrmblades are :) I mean, right now Kill Team is better than it ever was :) I hope they stick to their guns on and stay the course :)

Unpopular opinion, but I am NOT in love with Wyrmblade KT. I may be wrong, but I feel like they have bodycount, but not enough stopping power. Their gunners have one good option (gren launcher, as both flamer and webber are meh). Heavy gunner mining laser is solid, but stubber will be useful mainly for Crossfire spread. And they have (at best) 3 melee options (leader + dagger sanctus + locus). Adding it together, I am afraid that Wyrmblade won't stand much chance against Harlequins, Drukhari or Orcs. Well, I am not sure even if Wyrmblade can stand their ground against Compendium GSC team. And I am not even trying to compare them to Novitiates or other non-compendium teams.. As for characters - I do like how Locus and Sanctus are designed. I am not super happy with Kelermorph. I dislike choice of Neophyte Leader - Biophagus, Acolyte Iconward or new Saboteur would make much more interesting leader choices. Last, but not least, I don't like how we are restricted to use only 2 cult Agents. Comparing it to Warpcoven it seems far to strict - it would be enough to force "you can only have max 1 of given clan agent type", ofc with their 2-slot "price" kept. But well..

@@battlebrotherstabletop I kinda feel like I am getting scammed, if those box sets were just extra content for the old game, it would be just fine and awesome, but GW is intentionally having a 2 tier system. buying those box sets feel like pay to win

The thing that I am super worried about is how they are going to come up with bespoke team the shitshow that is marines right now. Also Compendium should have been included in the Octarius/Chalnath box instead of a separate purchase

Agreed on all of that. I just hope our marine team isn’t all scouts.

If you are looking for more content I have an idea! You clearly play a lot of kill team, why not talk about that? Maybe a 10 minute video once a week where you talk about things that happened during those games “I couldn’t get this secondary” “my sniper on a vantage was the MVP” “the terrain we set up was terrible and ruined the game”

This is great. It’s almost like this idea came from someone who’s been making content for a long time and actually knows what they’re talking about 😂

It's kind of disappointing as an admech fan that the other teams are getting such thematic cool stuff. The admech white dwarf team just seemed boring compared to the others and more of just a stat bump

Yeah man, I’m not an AdMech fan, but if I was I would be pretty bummed. I want to like them, and I even have a few boxes on my desk to make a team out of but the WD team didn’t motivate me to jump on it. But then I hear Alex from Strategic Advantage talking about them and winning tournaments with them so there’s got to be something there if you can back it up with player ability and really putting in the reps. I think I’m going to start focusing mostly on bespoke teams going forward now that there are more of them out in the world, so AdMech will pop up on the channel sooner or later!

All the boxed teams are already too powerful they don’t need more special characters, I don’t think these are characters as their stats don’t show that, they are cults versions of Krieg specialists, saying other teams should have them nah it’s wrong.

I think the problem is that the compendium teams aren’t strong enough. Also, VetGuard specialists don’t have 3 APL or 9 wounds. The cult agents are a lot stronger than a guardsmen specialist most of the time, I’d say

@@battlebrotherstabletop I completely agree the compendium teams are weak, I have a really tough time if I take a primaris team vs a krieg load out of 14, but I can just about manage vs 10 models and the special orders. Any other team in the compendium just doesn’t stand a chance against 14 Krieg ( with the exception of harlequins ) I’ve even tried a full team of genestealer purestrains.
