Kinstryfe Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 I played one Commander game (200pts) with every model that could afford it running fusion pistols and weapons with soaring spite. It was excessively effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Just something I thought I'd share with fellow Harlequin enthusiasts. I've been erming and aaring about a Harlequin Kill Team for a while now. Going through the various wargear options and doing some basic calculations, I realised that if you want to get the most chances of success with the Harlequin's Kiss, you had better put it on a Zealot specialist Player. The following math is based on the target being a Space Marine (or equivalent): on a regular Player, ~0.67 attacks go through (4 * 2/3 * 1/2 * 1/2); on a Combat specialist, ~0.83 attacks go through (5 * 2/3 * 1/2 * 1/2); on a Zealot specialist, ~1.11 attacks go through (5 * 2/3 * 2/3 * 1/2). Remember however that the Zealot special rule only applies when the specialist charges. However, given that Harlequins struggle with getting counter-punched and so must assure that each hit counts, I'd say that this is a good option for anyone wanting to create a Leader-/specialist-hunter.

Dosjetka Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Following up on my previous post, here's the list I have in mind currently. The idea is to balance a visually interesting Kill Team (i.e. with a variety of weapons) with close-combat power once they hit the table and their foes. Thoughts and suggestions appreciated. :) Masque: Midnight Sorrow Total points value: 100 Leader: Player w/ Harlequin's caress, Shuriken pistol, Leader specialismSpecialists: Player w/ Harlequin's kiss, Shuriken pistol, Zealot specialism Player w/ Harlequin's caress, Shuriken pistol, Combat specialism Player w/ Harlequin's embrace, Shuriken pistol, Veteran specialism Non-specialists: Player w/ Harlequin's embrace, Shuriken pistol Player w/ Harlequin's blade, Neuro disruptor Player w/ Harlequin's blade, Shuriken pistol Axineton 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dosjetka Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Glad my list has been useful to someone. :) I should probably add my own Harlequin Kill Team to my to-get-done list. :sweat: Axineton 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axineton Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Well not being clued up on harlequins I see this as a great starting point in my games. I’m sure once I get to know how to play the players I can tweak it to my preference or leave it as is mate so thanks for the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
