1. I think model reviews and *especially* "You can build this and also this" is very very useful. 2. There are absolutely more circumstances where you want a power fist than circumstances where you want a flamer. 3. I used to be able to build a space marine without looking at the instructions and then they changed how they made space marines. :p The *real* value of a model review video is telling you what is possible but not detailed on the instructions!

1. Great 2. True, but those numbers are both close enough to 0 for me to find them negligible. The flamer is a more complete model to have and paint, whereas I dunno, I would find a powerfist leader without the Leader Helmet, shoulders and cape just sort of sad. Like I said in the video, if I cared deeply, I would magnetise the leader, and that would be my advice to anyone that might want a power fist, that way you can have your leader with the leader helmet and cape at all times . 3. Yeah, I think for Kill Team this kind of kit is probably better than the old kinds of kit because undoubtedly, you get better looking poses. IMO the problem with the new design of kit really comes along when you build armies and each duplicated squad is a carbon copy of another, unless you do a lot of more advanced conversion work.

I admire how much you’re validating the decisions you made to make your models - anyone that ever tells you you built your models wrong is wrong

I agree with the sentiment, although if you care about the utility of your models as playing pieces, some kits can be put together wrong. All warriors would, for example be pretty wrong as a Kill Team player!

This video was super useful to me. I literally got to building my gunners and went "wait a minute" cause I had heard you could make all variations of them, but couldnt see how from just the instructions, and starring at the sprue it just wasn't clicking to me as a newer player. This was exactly what I needed. Thank you.

Loving the build guide! Built mine today too. I'll stick mine in the discord.

I’m glad you are enjoying your Nigtlords. I need to find some minis to make up this team that I like. That said I got considerable joy on Friday when the young lad I gave my Legion Vanguard minis to came to the PKT event with them for his first game, so those at least weren’t wasted.

Great feeling when you introduce someone to the game!

Yay! New video. Sadly, my FLGS got NONE of the copies of Nightmare that they ordered. GW has really let us down with how poorly they’re supporting Kill Team.

Huh? Really? My perception has been that the Salvation and Nightmare boxes have been relatively easy to get hold of, and only the Bheta Decima terrain has been a problem this season. Sad to hear reports otherwise!

Enjoyed the vid 🙂I ended up building 9 models in the end. Mashing together the ones needs to build Missile Launcher, Heavy Bolter, Melta and Plasma. I ended up magnetising the leaders weapons so i could mix and match.

NEEDZ MOAR POWA FIST! Loved the video. I think the issue you are trying to describe is how most people are producing the video the algorithm will prefer. Rules, Rules, Rules! However your video is great. Sometimes it is hard to get a understanding of the kit without something like this.

Weirdly, if you watch more generalist warhammer content, hobby talk is usually more popular than rules talk. Really glad you enjoyed the video though!

I knew this would come out, worth waiting before I went full ham sticking my hands together haha

This is really helpful. I’ll probably have to wait until they release the team separately in June/July (hopefully).

Sorry!

Yep. Loved the vid. Always satisfying to have that info of hands-on experience maximising value from a box... and that's with zero interest in picking this squad up for myself. (Currently I'm up to my neck in spreadsheets to ensure I build my GSC combat patrol to maximise every option for Wyrmblade, Compendium Brood coven, 'combat patrol', plus std 40k!! (And I just like WYSIWYG, for my own mental ease))

Well I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Enjoyed the video :) in the modern day, with kits being more and more linear in instructions. I think it will be of some use to at least a small portion of people, showing them that you can indeed deviate from the instructions. Like how you did your melta and plasma guns. I’m sure of it.

@TabletopImpulse

I hope so too!

i built both visionary options, but had to use a regular nightlords head and a different jetpack detail piece. also glued plasma and melta gunner arms and gun onto the last two options (flamer and warrior only). i also swapped most of the special helmets for nightlord winged helmets for theme i think nightlords has one team build option where you might want 2 warriors with bolters, and thats if you use the heavy bolter and use the shoot twice strat ploy every turn, leaving your 2 melee specialists on the bench. then the option to take a bolt pistol on the leader might be a factor

I can see the argument, but I think shooty night lords might be a bit of mirage.

Supposedly Kill Team Justian is finally coming for sale at Target Stores in the US. Not sure if there’s a reason to pick this up. Will it still be valid going forward?

@TabletopImpulse

It's possible it will still be valid, no one really knows. I had heard it had come to Target stores, and promptly sold out online and in a lot of locations.

This particular video wasn’t useful to me personally, because I’m not going to build this team. That said, this TYPE of video can be very helpful, especially when there’s some unforeseen gotcha involved in assembling certain minis.

Great to hear, thanks!

I took the Plasma gun, not the Heavy Bolter, after i testet both by just rolling dices about 20 times. The Plasma gun was just way better! But im sad because the bolter look so much better 🫣

Oh, there was never a question between plasma and heavy bolter. Plasma and Melta are both obviously better then either of the heavy gunners.
