Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000 - Kill Team: Legionaries

Product Information

Khorne grants the ability Wrathful Onslaught, which lets an operative turn a normal hit into a critical hit each time it fights in combat if it didn’t otherwise roll any critical hits in that Fight action – a good ability for your Chosen, Butcher, Anointed or Shrivetalon operatives.

Malicious Volleys and Hateful Assault – These are your standard Marine ploys that allow them to Shoot twice if they don’t Fight and vice versa. The usefulness of these two ploys coupled with how CP hungry this team is rewards players for taking either an Undivided Leader or Icon-Bearer. Kill Team: Nachmund is almost here, and the latest expansion for the ultimate sci-fi skirmish game pits swift Aeldari Corsairs against the brutal might of the Heretic Astartes . It’s quite possibly the most aggressive Kill Team boxed set so far – and by pledging themselves to the Chaos Gods, your Legionaries can become even deadlier. In my opinion this is an auto include in kill teams where you want to use melee, and the combination of Lethal 5+ and the ability to Fight twice makes it real useful to combine with the Mark of Khorne to chew through enemy groups.In the above section we briefly covered the five keywords associated with the various blessings available to a Legionary Team. Each of these keywords, other than UNDIVIDED, excludes another from your roster meaning you can never have more than three types of blessing within your roster or team. Despite these limitations the Legionary players still has many interesting combinations they may choose from. It is also important to note that the Blessing you choose to give your operative will also determine which ploys they will have access to. Clad in corrupted, ancient versions of the power armour the Imperium granted them, the Chaos Space Marines are superhuman warriors skilled at both melee and ranged damage, and many of them have specialized in using unique weapons to gain the attention of the Chaos patrons. Malign Scripture lets your Balefire Acolyte cast two powers a turn, and since all the Balefire Acolytes powers are good this is another almost compulsory choice. In both of these lists you can notice a trend that Gunners don’t need to have either Blessings of Slaanesh or Khorne as they’re more concerned with staying alive or remaining mobile while providing reliable fire support.

Some worship Khorne, the God of Rage, and charge roaring into battle whenever and against whomever they can – Khorne cares not from whence the blood flows, if it is spilled in his honour. Toolkit and Customization – A combination of Chaos Blessings and associated ploys give this team access to one of the most expansive list of options in the game. There is an answer for every problem on this team. Slaanesh-marked operatives only. For one Turning Point, this lets Slaanesh-marked operatives resolve two succesful hits at once rather than one the first time they resolve a succesful hit when fighting in combat against an injured enemy operative.
