Canadian_F_H Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 What is your favorite CT for kill team games? What is the best CT for KT? (Th see 2 need not be the same) But very importantly what CTs are problematic or fail to function properly as is in KT. I've always loved my Black Templars but their chapter tactics arguably have no effect. Since each model counts as a separate unit, then you can't lose a model to shooting or overwatch and gain rage or counterattack. I would house rule that losing a member of the killteam to shooting would give the entire kill team rage/counter attack, or instead losing a member of the parent unit would confer to all members of that unit ie, purchase a 5 marine crusader squad. They act independently, but if one goes down to shooting the other 4 get rage/counterattack. As for best? Not familiar with all the FW CTs. I know any that help with deep strike are missing out... and the one with apothecaries suffer because of the single model unit rule... In the codex, imperial fists and raven wing stand out.

Father Mehman Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 "Best" is a loaded word. Each person has different tactics and a unique playstyle that won't necessarily transfer to another person. As you've pointed out, there are those Chapter Tactics that may not be as effective overall but this idea of a stock "best" Chapter Tactic is futile. If there was a "best", we all know Ultramarines would be it, anyway . I'm going to be taking Iron Hands Chapter Tactics as that is my Chapter of choice. Seeing that no vehicles are going to be a part of it will just increase the fun. Well, we do get that sweet, sweet Feel No Pain (6+) . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian_F_H Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share Posted September 10, 2016 Well.. best was definitly subjective, but the debate could be fun and incitefull. Charcrodons seam fun, super assault oriented. Mantis warrior infantry gain move thru cover, hammer of wrath, and also furious charge out of cover. This seams very useful for these kinds of missions. Personally I might use this as an excuse to start my imperial/crimson fists... But I do have DA and BA to work on... urgh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Mehman Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Mantis Warriors get all of that? Wow! Consider me impressed ! Basically, if it isn't in the Space Marine Codex, I'm all sorts of useless. I know FW had their Chapter Tactics up at some point but devil if I'm going to search them out. You start your IF / CF and I'll do a squad of Raptors because OD Green is where it's at. I think I may be biased towards the colour, though.

Canadian_F_H Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share Posted September 10, 2016 They are OD green eh? I got all the FW CT info from battle scribe. Raptors get some of the raven guard stuff about shrouded and night fighting, lose the HoW stuff for heavy 1 rending boltpistol and bolters (including bolter part of combi bolter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
