I played in my FLGS Games Workshop Kill Team tournament, and won it all. I brought a list of 7 Noise Marines and a Rhino. It was super overpowered. Here's the breakdown:

Game 1 was against Dark Angels. I did lose 2 Marines to a biker, but other than that I dominated the game and won 6 - 0 (First Blood, Slay the Leader, break the enemy, and 3 points for holding the objective)

Game 2 was against Imperial Guard and it was hold 3 objectives, each one worth 1 point. I tabled him turn 3 as all of my models killed what they shot at and he failed break tests miserably. I won 5-0 (First blood, slay the leader, break the enemy, and 2 objectives held.)

Game 3 was against Tau, and he stood a decent chance of beating me as it was the "move your models off the enemy's table edge". He deployed poorly though, even though I deployed first being the attacker. He had 3 stealthsuits, one with a Fusion Blaster with the upgraded range. He got too preoccupied trying to get in as close as possible to use the longer Melta range, and as a result he missed turn 1, and I killed all 3 of his stealth suits turn 2 with my Doom Siren. After that he tried glancing on 6's with his 5 fire warriors and managed to score only 1 hit point. Turns 3 and 4 I went flat out and won 10-0 (8 models off the board, First Blood, Slay the Leader)

So all in all a VERY strong list. So much so I apologized to my opponents. But I did win, lol.

Well done!

Kill team can often be a bit scissors-paper-stone, but at the same time, the rules do curb the worst excesses. I love the way it makes a rhino/chimera feel like a real 'tank' instead of just target practice...

The Doom siren is an interesting choice - it does make the champion lethal (and no-one in the right mind would dare charge him!). Having fearless models helps a lot, too.

What else did you use?
Close combat weapons, or the odd sonic blaster?

Impressed at you killing off the guard so easily - I'm assuming it wasn't a proper horde (platoon command, infantry squad, infantry squad, conscript squad), then?

Thanks! The list was:

6x Noise Marine, 6x Sonic Blaster, 3x CCW (Specialists: Master Crafted, Pref Enemy, Exploit Weaknesses)
1x Noise Champ, Doom Siren, CCW, Bolt Pistol
Rhino

Came in at exactly 200. The Imp Guard had 2 vet squads and a platoon. He had an Autocannon and a Missile Launcher for his heavy wep teams. We played on a mountainous scene and I used the cliffs and edges to keep out of LOS of his teams before I killed them. He brought 24 models, and I managed to kill 3 turn 1, 12 turn 2 (he tried to swarm the Rhino to prevent it from turning a corner. He forgot my champ had a template weapon), and the remaining 4 that passed their Break Test turn 3.

No eldar showing up at kt saddens me :( but gj man, way to represent chaos!

Good job, I will say I think you were fortunate to not face any vehicles with that list....a chimera in that IG list would have probably given you issues
