So I bought the Kill team rules from GW and have been reading and re reading them. It doesn't quit explain to me how a Apothecary would work in the game. Do I go off the same principle as the Necrons who have to be within 2" of another necron of the same type?

How did you field an Apothecary in kill team. I thought you couldn't take HQ choices.

Red Scorpions can do it.

But RAW, the FNP will only affect the apothecary as each model is his own unit. A 2" area of effect doesn't sound unreasonable as a house rule, though.

I don't know how Kill Team works exactly but you can have apothecaries as your Sergeants and Veteran Sgts. in Tactical squads if you're running Red Scorpions Chapter Tactics.

I was planning on running the Red Scorpion Chapter Tactics if the apothecary ruling seemed good. I may go with a house rule of 2" but at that point I think I am going to change it up instead of doing what I was going to do.

Kill Team mess up a lot "model effects whole unit" stuff. Renders some wargear useless such as Tau Drone controllers and SM Devastator Signums.

Ack, your right, there heavy. Though I think there is or a FW Chapter Tactic that makes them Elite.

I want to say in the popular fan made version of kill team Icons of Chaos (which normally affect whole unit) are given a 6" radius or so which seemed reasonable. 2" seems pretty harsh to me.
