<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Regular Deathwatch Rules?"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Regular Deathwatch Rules? see that they've just released rules to use the models from Deathwatch: Overkill in 40k, but what about rank and file Deathwatch Marines? There used to be rules for generic Kill Teams and for upgrading models within Codex Marines squads to Deathwatch veterans. Does anything like this exist in 7th?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8550663.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8550663.page GMT Regular Deathwatch Rules? iirc.

Any idea where the Kill Team rules are?

Or look for MWG's deathwatch campaign stuff and use point values for individual men.

A lot of characters can take Pistol Sternguard ammunition for 5 pts.

No chapter tactics.

Deathwatch frag cannons are 25 pts.

A Master-crafted Power Fist and Master-crafter Meltagun cost 15 pts on a Terminator (call it 5 pts for the MC on the Power Fist, 5 pts for the Meltagun plus 5 pts to make it MC).

Bascially all characters are built from the Codex: Space Marines Generic HQs, Command Squad, Sternguard Veteran, Vanguard Veteran, and Terminator units. Wolf Guard, Dark Angels Veteran, and Dark Angels Command Squad may be substituted in as well, maintaining all their options.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8551061.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8551061.page GMT Re:Regular Deathwatch Rules?

Yep, no official rules for a kill-team without the special characters, and nothing I saw gave any specifics on what faction they are considered, and how they incorporate into the force org. True, you can get a same diff kind of thing with Sternguard, but I might really like to field a vanilla kill-team with that Frag Cannon sometime all official like.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8551149.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8551149.page GMT Re:Regular Deathwatch Rules?

Unless they release a kit for generic Deathwatch that consists of something more than just some shoulder armor and Sternguard bolters, I doubt we will ever see any official rules for anything other than Kill Team Cassius.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8551154.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8551154.page GMT Regular Deathwatch Rules?
They did have rules for generic Deathwatch sqauds to add into your army and even a way to play an entire Deathwatch army but that was back in 3rd ed.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8552258.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8552258.page GMT Regular Deathwatch Rules?

Oh yes, THAT Kill Team. Not exactly what I was after. I was looking for rules to incorporate generic Deathwatch Kill Teams specifically into your list for regular games of 40k. A Deathwatch themed Kill Team for games of Kill Team would be fun too though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8553129.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8553129.page GMT Regular Deathwatch Rules?

Aren't Kill Teams restricted to 200 points? That could be a little tough with Kill Team Cassius running 600.

The Kill Team ruleset and Deathwatch Kill Teams are not the same thing.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8553250.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/685339/8553250.page GMT Regular Deathwatch Rules?

Yes he is, but they made a re-appearance in a WD battle report some time in 5th. I'll try and find the issue and post up what the exact rules were.

My solution to playing Deathwatch is the bringing the First Company Strikeforce formation (Sternguard, Vanguard and Terminator), Reclusiam Command Squad (for a Chaplain and Command Squad), Librarius Conclave (for the easy Librarians) and an Allied Detachment (Captain, Scouts, Venerable Dreadnought, LSS, and Stromraven). I try not to take any barebones bolters except in the Sternguard Squad, and make sure each unit has a transport option, jump pack or deep strike.
Best part is, they can be brought alongside my Primary Detachment (probably AM in this situation) and serve as a full Allied contingent.

It's a large kill team, but anything above a single Sternguard Squad would be a large kill team anyway. Just Forge the Narrative and say that you're facing an exceptionally dangerous xenos.
