Hey dakka, so my GW is doing a bit more Kill Team on Saturdays, and I am looking to make a list so I can focus on getting everything painted (as a bit of a vector to give my DE some focus)

I don't own a kill team rulebook, so i am not 100% sure that this list is legal, but I think it is.

Reaver
-Arena Champion

Reaver
-Cluster Caltrop

Reaver
-Cluster Caltrop

Reaver

Reaver

Reaver

Venom
-Extra splinter cannon.

Is this list cheesy? Will I lose friends? I've never played DE kill team (although I've dabbled with Space Wolves)

That's two fast attacks, right? That makes it illegal. You're allowed 0-2 Troops, 0-1 Fast Attacks, and 0-1 Elites.

You can kill only 1 model with 12 shots. That's Overkill in most cases. Drop the Venom.

Go for 10 Reaver with 2 Blasters and 1 Cluster Caltrop or 2 Cluster Caltrop and 1 Blaster

The Cluster Caltrop Guy gets Stealth (for 2+ Jink)
+50% range, +1BS or ignores Cover goes on the model with the blaster.
Rage, FnP or Hatred are good choices for specialist number 3.

"Jump Shoot Jump" will save your day. Once you reach turn 4 you'll have Furios Charge on every model so you can engange in meele.

If you opponent has only infantry, you WILL lose friends.

Do the eldar get their blood improvement mechanic thing then.

If you can get a model with a splinter cannon then give them reaping volley rule. allows them to fire every shot at a different model. I use that for my scatter laser jet bike.

Huh that is a good idea.

I don't have 10 reavers, I only have 6 (sad face)

any ideas on how to use those points?

I hear mandrakes can be quite nasty in killteam, can get 5 of them in place of the Venom.
2+ cover save if you get them in cover and there baleblast isn't bad for shooting. Don't forget infiltrate.
Might be worth taking only 4 and grabbing an extra blaster or heat lances on you reavers though.
However I never tried them.
