So I feel that a black knights squad almost feels obligatory with DA, but for the rest....

Black Knights x3

Scout squad:
- Heavy bolter x 1 (relentless)
- Scout Sgt w/ storm bolter x1
- Bolter x 1
- Sniper Rifle x1
- BP & CCW x1

The scout squad (as opposed to Tac squad) seemed a bit different than "normal", but with a lot of interesting options.
Not sure about the best choices for the other two specialists.
Thoughts?

Well the hunts master has to be your leader, so I'd give the other two bikes a specialty. One of my favourites is to give a black knight the ignores cover USR, as it means only invulnerable saves will help against the plasma talons, my other favourites are either Feel no pain, or stealth. Feel no pain simply grants an additional save, and you'd have to be hit by a strength 10 weapon to negate it. There's not a lot of those around in kill team. Also you can model the RWC Apothecary to show the specialty. Stealth is pretty good as it stacks with jink and skilled rider, therefor granting you a 3+ cover save simply for moving!

Not the original poster, but that sounds really cool.

To Griff, I do think the Black Knights are the best value for your Specialists. The Heavy Bolter Scout is fine without Relentless, because it's unlikely he'll need to move. With models operating as its own unit in Kill Team, you position him as a Lone Gunmen up on tall terrain like the top of a tower.
