I am joining a little kill teams group that will soon be moving from 200-400 points. now I know I can make harlies work at 400, but really having a hard time seeing them work at 200 given the force org limitation.

my main concern is this is a glass sword army and without the ability to pin things and given the low model count I cannot imagine them surviving much shooting let alone overwatch to get there. Has anybody had luck with them at 200 points or should I pursue another army for kill teams (have pretty much all of em but have never used my harlies)

I've been wondering the same thing. I would love a harlequinn kill team to compliment my DE, but I don't really know where to start in terms of the Actual kill team, or expanding past that.

yea... solitaire is not possible at 200 being 165 before adding any gear (need 4 models) death jester or troup master are both possible at 60 points but there is 1/2 the army in one model.

skyweavers with no upgrades x 4 are an option but 8 wounds toughness 4 4+ save is an awefully low model count but might work. with elder jet bike moves for LOS breaking but this would be VERY unforgiving

a starweaver or voidweaver seems decent but again could die to bolters and lets be real everybody plays spae marines, it will have a 5++ but still not last long.

plain troupe you could have 11 harlies and 1 troupe master, but at t3 5++ they will die to a stiff breeze. likely with equipment desired closer to 9 harlies and a troupe master.

I might be missing some possible but I am having trouble imagining any of the above doing well

I've got a set from Death Masque I've been looking to try, but I'm not expecting anything great. My team is essentially locked down to:

Death's Company + Death Jester/Shadowseer + Haywire Grenades.

There might also be something with a basic Troupe mixed with a Starweaver or pair of Skyweavers. Definitely not a lot of choices though.
