Only way to field purestrain Genestealers in KT21 is by playing a Tyranid team from the Kill Team Compendium book. This means two fireteams, both of which can be stealers, so 5-10 models
quoted from the Operative selection section:
"
>> A GENESTEALER fire team includes five GENESTEALER FIGHTER operatives each separately equipped with one of the following options:
• Double rending claws
• Rending claws; scything talons
>> If your kill team does not include any other LEADER operatives, instead of selecting one GENESTEALER FIGHTER operative for one GENESTEALER fire team, you can select one GENESTEALER LEADER operative equipped with one of the following options:
• Double rending claws
• Rending claws; scything talons
"
The leader is pretty lethal with his WS of 2+. In general, stealers are scary in CC, as they should be. 9 wounds too so might not die on the first shot they get
Base size is the same as for 40K
