Rules corrections and things to note: - We sometimes miss retaining a save in cover - The Ssshhhh! free dash happens immediately when you play the ploy, not when activating operatives - Being in heavy cover doesn't automatically make you obscured (intervening heavy terrain does) - The boss nob and novitiate superior are 3APL
The biggest issue with obscuring is that you cannot be inside of control range of the obscuring terrain. If you're within an inch of it, it's just cover, but if both models are outside of an inch, they are obscured to one another.
For your first Kill Team game this was great fun to watch, with excellent camera work and a quick, concise video. Rules accuracy will come with time, hope you guys stick with it because it's a great game and can have some really awesome cinematic moments and back and forth action! Keep up the great content!
Always enjoy these battle reports, some of the best I've seen, and it's good to get a taste for the new edition of Kill Team before trying it out myself.
Excellent battle report! I'm glad you managed to stick with it and see it through to the end, as the final result is one awesome, tight battle report 👌🏻
Hey MGM. I'm very new to Kill Team. I purchased the starter set and my son and I are getting through the scenarios. Love your channel. Love the narration of the turns as well as the camera angles. Keep up the great work
Love it... !!! the closeup shots and the sound effects gives it a lot of dynamism. I would like to see more shots from the top.... just to see the bigger picture and make it easy to comprehend whats is going on. If you do that, I recommend to try to animate the directions where the miniatures will move, then change to shots to the closer ones, to see the movement and the cover and let us enjoy the action, as you already are doing. Honestly, I loved the video. Congrats
@@MiniatureGameMontage Thanks for everything you do. It's hard to have the energy while working and bringing up kids. It's great that you're doing this with your son. I'll have to talk my daughters into playing with you soldiers when they're old enough.
I like the "in the action closeups" but I find myself sturggling to understand the bigger picture of the battle, especially in the first couple of rounds when I haven't seen the full battlefield and I'm having to parse where everything is in relation to one another. I think more zoomed out establishing shots early on, and one or two during the round, would compliment the one you do between turning points.
Great to see Kill Team alongside your Necromunda reports. Quality work as always. Was giving your channel a shout-out on the comments section of "Striking Scorpion 82" latest video, when he was asking for suggestions to grow his base. I used you guys as great content on the smaller, deeper, 40k games systems.
I know Luke, you can see my Eldar playing him back in the earlier seasons. I do think he needs to be influenced by the likes of yourself and branch into Kill Team and Munda, help inject some new juice into the channel.
I believe at 12:58 the leader would be in cover and obscured too. He is within 1 inch of the heavy cover, yes. But the ork cover lines crossed at the middle which was more than 2 inches away. Might be wrong. There is a similar example in the rule book.
Your battle reports set the bar! Would love to see more of this and blood bowl. Have you played cyberpunk red combat zone? Would like to see that on the channel.
No, they still use cover to hide and not be an eligible target. You need to draw clear line of sight to both sides of their base. Sometimes the camera angle makes it look different.
Narration is key good job, maybe some more close static shots from the camera to help ground us in the action but if you keep playing kill team ima watch
@ I’m not the expert but I would say, yes. It would be unfair to be able to shoot through a window and not receive return fire. Assuming it’s heavy terrain and the operative has an engage order.
@@eh6194 honestly I’d probably check out can you roll a crit or glass half dead for those type of tips. I’m not a very good list builder. You can run up to two Purgatus operatives. She felt powerful hitting on 2s with 4 damage. Plus you have faith. I loved the condemor, purgatus, exactor and preceptor. The penitent should be really good. With their low wounds I’d almost consider replacing the hospitaler with another Purgatus.
Im a bit confused on your turning the conceal order to engage mid battle, i was under the impression you could only change it at the start of a turning point, and whatever you set at the start of that turning point is what the operative would have for the remainder of that turning point? but in your video it was shown to happen almost every time a unit wanted to fight.
Thanks for dropping in. The rules state, "whenever an operative activates, first select its order (Engage or Conceal). It then performs actions..." So if you had an operative with a conceal order, he/she would remain concealed until you activate that operative again.
Dude. Please keep making these battle reports. Your Kill Team battle reports are the best on You Tube. I just got the Hive Storm set and am trying to learn your videos help a lot!
@@nolader28 we had a lot of heavy terrain on the board. But essentially they need to be more than 1” away from it to be obscured. We got confused on some of that.
The camera work is more disorienting than the last round of videos. A wider angle and more steady hold on the camera would be a bit more easy to watch.
Need to know The act of faith - blessing your retain a normal success as a critical success That critical succesa triggers the ploy and equipment conditions?
@@hydralisk33 I’m not sure. If the ploy says, “if you retain” I would assume yes. Because you manipulate the dice first and then retain them. Probably worth an ask to the greater community on FB or Reddit.

- Being in heavy cover doesn't automatically make you obscured (intervening heavy terrain does)
- The boss nob and novitiate superior are 3APL
The Throat Slittas rule would have meant the Nob would still be concealed after charging and killing the Purgatas.
@@Ch0mpyBitz right! We messed that up. He also has 3 AP! Just a big learning experience.
The biggest issue with obscuring is that you cannot be inside of control range of the obscuring terrain. If you're within an inch of it, it's just cover, but if both models are outside of an inch, they are obscured to one another.
How much CP do you get on TP1? is it 2 or 3?
@ the rules state that “each player gains 1 CP. In each turning point after the first, the player who doesn’t have initiative gains 2 CP instead.”
The close up shots is such a refresher and so much more engaging than the top-down style of most killteam reports! Keep it up!
@@daddycalus thanks!
Agreed!
Agreed the top down reports just take me out of it.
I usually can't see what's going on with top down videos. I'm not used to the game enough to tell what's what.
Narration and camera shots were awesome! I hope you do more of this type of content!
@@megaautism7437 definitely will. Have 3 episodes out now and plan to continue

The best kill team battle report I’ve seen, as your Necromunda’s always are . Thank you for your effort in delivering the highest quality, always ❤❤❤
@@marcopal2398 thanks so much! 👍
Happy to see more kill team! And I love that your videos are nice and quick and concise. 👏
The camera-work was excellent, making the events easy to understand. I am trying to learn how to play, so I appreciate the extra effort.
@@ethancomee 🍻 cheers!

Thank you, friend! Took us awhile but we enjoyed it! Still have a lot to improve on which is fun for me.
Well done! I’m excited to see more battle reports of the new edition in the future!
Such a huge fan of how you film batreps. It is clear you know from experience what makes them fun to watch or not. Thank you. 👊🏻
@@DozerDozen1234 thanks, I appreciate that!

Huge fan of seeing you do Kill Team. I've been playing the new edition and love it, and I'm very glad to have some videos to watch, too!
Thanks so much! We'll have another one in December.
Love the vid. Thank you for kill team content!
Loved the kill team batrep! Keep 'em comin'!
Good damn thats some quality man! Well played
Excellent battle report! I’d watch every single one of these
@@darinshaw8919 thanks! We have another coming up soon.
Great Bat rep! Cant wait to see more Kill team!🎉
great battle report also enjoying this version of Killteam
Loving the KT content, good work!
@@aleksandersiemaszko6027 thanks for watching!
Excellent start to the weekend. Beers and MGM doing Kill Team.
I'm anxious to get to the beer part! 🤣
@@MiniatureGameMontage Thanks for everything you do. It's hard to have the energy while working and bringing up kids. It's great that you're doing this with your son. I'll have to talk my daughters into playing with you soldiers when they're old enough.
Toy not you!!
Looking Great! As a new Kommandoz player myself, I found this to be very helpful.
@@JapanInDan great! The rocket felt really good. Dakka boy did well. They felt good to play. I think they will be fun and competitive on the table.
Amazing work!!
Such a great channel with really thorough reports! Love it!
Quick question, what terrain set are you guys using for this game?!
Thanks! This was chalnath terrain (sector imperialis style)
Idk why but yall communicate the action well. I can actually follow the battle completely.
@@elliottmartinez8594 glad you like it. 👍

That is correct! She would benefit from obscurity. I looked at it again and it's exactly what they have in the book.
the little rocks, moss, and debris on the map is great.
@@LinkLayerLogic thanks! I have a bud that hates playing with it but I love the aesthetic.
Great editing, truly the best way to do BRs on youtube. Are you sure those orange dice arnt loaded. =)
@@mrmooney25 haha, omg those dice. I’ve had them for years and they just roll so well!
I've been having a great time with the new KT ed. Good to see it being played by others too. Good game
Very clean bat rep..
It's been a long time ... Plz bring back the regular kill team videos I love your narrating and editing
@@samsnead7414 yep! It’s back in the plans. I consider it a staple on the channel.
You should do more killteam this is so good!
Thanks! It will be coming back into our regular rotation. 👍
Awesome, I heartily recommend the inquisitorial agents because of the melta gun that has unlimited range.
Ssshhhh! free dash happens immediately when you play the strategic ploy in the strategic phase. Not when the operative activates.
Hi! New to kill team 24. When you mentioned ‘Overwatch’ at 4:45, were you performing the Counteract action?
@@HarleyGoLightly correct! You can technically perform a 1 AP action with some restrictions.
been so excited to see you play the new edition!
@@church1268 it took awhile but we made it! We have arrived. 🤣 Looking forward to bringing it back to our normal rotation.
Your battle reports set the bar! Would love to see more of this and blood bowl. Have you played cyberpunk red combat zone? Would like to see that on the channel.
@@pumajr05 thanks! I beg to differ but I appreciate the support! I’m going to check that out right now. Someone else mentioned it too!
Excellent game! Not sure if it was noted that your sister superior is a 3APL operative!
@@Bawss5 yep! And the boss nob! 🤦♂️ Thanks for watching!
I have both of these teams! Can't wait to watch this.
@@darthinfamous73 let me know what you think. 👍
Also noticed that some ops with conceal order and in cover were shot. Is that something that has changed?
No, they still use cover to hide and not be an eligible target. You need to draw clear line of sight to both sides of their base. Sometimes the camera angle makes it look different.
12:01 he throws it at the Preceptor, not the Penitent (who just died last turn)
@@theblackantonio good call!
Narration is key good job, maybe some more close static shots from the camera to help ground us in the action but if you keep playing kill team ima watch
Thanks, bud!
when in heavy cover u arent automaticly obscured.
Noted!
In other cases an operative should be Obscured but wasn't, like in 12:35
I mean Dakka Boy shooting
so you are able to shoot thru windows? Does it take anything away from your rolls?
@@okaive I think you have to be up against it to shoot through. Within 1” of it. There would not be a penalty unless your target is obscured
@@MiniatureGameMontage so if you’re 1” from it and they aren’t, can they shoot you?
Had this come up on a game and couldn’t find a definite rule.
@ I’m not the expert but I would say, yes. It would be unfair to be able to shoot through a window and not receive return fire. Assuming it’s heavy terrain and the operative has an engage order.
What’s is the best team loadout for novitiates u reckon
@@eh6194 honestly I’d probably check out can you roll a crit or glass half dead for those type of tips. I’m not a very good list builder. You can run up to two Purgatus operatives. She felt powerful hitting on 2s with 4 damage. Plus you have faith.

@@Ryan-nv3dz awesome! It looks like a heap of plastic. Hope you’re enjoying it!
This. All of this. I love this game and you present it better than anyone.
Novitiates are one the teams im looking i just got the kommandos yesterday hopefully i can find a one soon
For just being a casual I thought both sides were a lot of fun! Both good choices.
the orks weren't even obscured half the time no?
@@nolader28 we had a lot of heavy terrain on the board. But essentially they need to be more than 1” away from it to be obscured. We got confused on some of that.

@@pontiusporcius8430 I was zooming in more to get closer shots. Probably the issue. Thanks for the feedback!
Need to know
The act of faith - blessing your retain a normal success as a critical success
That critical succesa triggers the ploy and equipment conditions?
@@hydralisk33 I’m not sure. If the ploy says, “if you retain” I would assume yes. Because you manipulate the dice first and then retain them. Probably worth an ask to the greater community on FB or Reddit.
