Kill Team Compendium: Aeldari

Kill Team 2 becomes Kill Team as the release of the compendium gives us all of our faction rules. Third in line brings us the 3 flavours of Aeldari, vanilla, spicy, and funny. Craftworld, commorrite (drukhari), and harlequins!
These alternative names are really going to mess with people trying to find them These are the Eldar, okay, we all know that's what they're called! ELDAR!

0:00 Craftworld
6:13 Commorrite
7:54 Harlequins

With the release of the compendium Kill Team 2 shall now be referred to as... Kill Team. Here's the Aeldari! (I say nothing of worth, this is just for you to see the datasheets, I'm not even going to pretend!)

thanks for the coverage of this new edition.
my hype has died, but i am going to free-load the rules and try a few games at the local shop. hope it's more fun than it looks

[danwallace]

Good stuff, sir! I'm still a little saddened by the "fireteam" construction, but it really does not change as much as I feared.

I can't wait to start converting up a team of operatives now! A Double Thank You for all your hard work!!!

One note on the heavy weapons platform and it's operator. The operator can stay concealed, or behind obscuring terrain the whole game, and still operate the gun. I am not sure if it is going to make it good, but it is something.

Some of those strategic and tactics ploys for the Eldar that you skipped over seems very strong. The harliquions can delete a character with Murderous entrance, and can also strike then fall back with the Curtain Falls without the enemy resolving their attack dice. Also teleport anywhere on the field, move 3 extra and so one. The other eldar ploys also did something like that, the Supreme distain one for Craftworlds looked deadly.

I’m actually going to build Harlequins this time, honest! 🤣

[stevenray]

Your coverage of the new edition has been excellent.

Unfortunately the high price of the two softback books are an instant turn off.

[PhantomJavelin]

It's gonna be rough going back to base teams after being used to taking Aspects and Wraiths and stuff. Here's hoping Elites come sooner than later.

Who wants a video about how you tear down your books and spiral bind them so nicely?

Finishing this up as the last of the 4.
Hate to get in on the spam but damnit I don't love the lack of variety in list building. I know it doesn't matter to everyone, and if we're talking competition it probably matters even less as you get talking about the "meta", but as a point cruncher and lover of goofy lists.. I feel like I've shown up to my favorite bowling alley and found that the bumpers have all been put in and they're mandatory. I'm a firm believer in depth > accessibility, and I'm not going to be surprised if the longevity of this new edition echos that. I want the best for the game and the community, and I'm happy to see a fresh re-basing of the balance to address some of the left behind teams.
If I buy this, it's because I want to encourage GW to stay invested in this and give us more content, and not because I'm 100% happy.

In all the fluff, Striking Scorpions are the sneaky infiltratory type unit. Where is the name of Khaine are they!? We need Scorpions!!!

[leanderschuster]

So they want us to wait 2 years and cough up another 100 bucks for books to be able to use units we already had in the old version
Cool

I've played my Craftworlds team one time. Let me tell you, Avenger shuriken catapults will clap cheeks

[wraithship]

Another problem with the guardians, if your one gunner gets killed, no other guardian can fire the heavy weapons platform 🤦‍♂️ Your enemy can kill two birds with one very squishy stone

(The guardian gunner can shoot and then use the second action point to operate the platform though, but the platform can only be activated once per turn so it can't move and shoot)

[SpannSr]

I’m waiting for my book to adapt Necromunda to this system!

[MJaegerJensen]

So the Eldars does not get a psyker/warlock? Interesting. I had hope they got on as I like those characters. Do you think we will see heros/leaders/HQ down the line for kill team?

[zzeekkey]

Hay! iwas playing kill team far back in 2012. And now wonna do it again and there is a new rules. Am i understand it right? - i can assamble team of eldars and dark eldars o_O

[NightfallTH]

Really disappointed in the Drukhari compendium. No flavor left at all. Okay, let's play the waiting game.

[kennethp]

So it was 8 harlequins in the team. You were kinda muffled on my end when you said it.

[bartswitalski]

Clowns are looking cool. CW and dark eldar ... not so much
