I've just been reading the new Kill Teams book and it seems like a throwback to Necromunda, but without the team progression aspect

Has anyone given any thought to a Necromunda / Mordheim / Gorka-Morka style experience / injury campaign? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8895641.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8895641.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8898137.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8898137.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8898151.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8898151.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over? 40k factions (eldar, 'crons, etc.) and allows you to spend points on upgrades during list creation rather than rolling for it over time.

The campaign style is great if you're playing an actual campaign, but it would be nice to have the option to take some of the cool, fluffy options on my dudes without waiting to roll for the right thing on a table. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905483.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905483.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over?

Necromunda and Mordheim both included optional matched-play systems for doing just that, actually. I haven't incorporated that into my system as of the current draft because of the lack of testing but it's probably going to make an appearance eventually.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905501.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905501.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905508.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905508.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over?

I have.

I've only barely glanced at HoR (and loved what I saw), but it doesn't seem like you'd be able to fit many wraith guard into a list. It also seems like they'd be pretty bad in such a small-scale game. Sure, you'll murder the snot out of that ork boy, but you won't have as many high-cost targets to get the most out of your expensive d-weapons. It feels like snipers and special weapons would trade very well with a wraith guard.

Distortion cannons are probably a bit more problematic as they're barrage and 24" range. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905534.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905534.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over?

I can see that but also remember the way its meant to be played, heavy terrain, and if a shot scatteres, it still can go off in his face because its based off of LoS, so if he fires a D blast from poking his head around the corner, if he scatters toward the wall and the wall is between him and the scatter it hits the wall so he can end up shootin himself.

+ that become a super hard target to hit.

You can always take a terminator with an assault canon and a teleporter, and jump right behind it and shoot it up. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905563.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905563.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over?

Actually, I just peeked at the current Heralds of Ruin rules. D-cannons are just strength 4 small blasts that "crit" on 6s. Same with d-scythes but templates instead of blasts. Wraithcannons are strength 10, but don't do multiple wounds. That doesn't seem so bad on a model that's theoretically a ton of your army's points.


Well there you go, they even neutered D weapons. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905614.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905614.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over?

And I thought Mordheim was closer to my end goal and chose to start by doctoring it instead of by doctoring HoR.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905632.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8905632.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over?

Its working out pretty well.

Also we got ride of Battle honors, and you roll for what you get on upgrades to your character. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8911459.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8911459.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over? GW's Kill Team if you ask me, and has its own campaign system a lot like Necromunda's. There are no vehicles in it besides walkers though. I'd check it out.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8912148.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8912148.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over?

HoR doesn't, though it does have veterancy for light vehicle crew in the campaign rules. There's a Specialist Games Magazine supplement for Necromunda called Ash Wastes that does have customizable vehicles, I'm planning on including something based on that in my system but I'm trying to get the core rules out the door first.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8912168.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8912168.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over?

I would like into HoR + doing character levelup and xp from mordhim.

Honestly dont do vehicles, unless its dedicated transports which again HoR have rules for that, or special objective vehicles like each side gets a tank this game with out any point cost. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8913618.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8913618.page GMT Kill Team Campaign - Necromunda cross over?

My planned restrictions are actually a little tighter than HoR's. They aren't final but I'm extremely leery of including any vehicle chassis with an AV of 12 in its 40k statline on any face (the only exception I'm considering is the Chimera), while HoR's '34 AV total' restriction allows (among other things) Falcons (12-12-10) and Repressors (13-11-10).

The only inclusions I haven't made a final decision on are Necrons (pending a decision on how Quantum Shielding is going to work) and the Devilfish (I'm leaving the Wave Serpent behind because the Eldar can just bring a Venom/Starweaver-equivalent, but the Tau don't have a light transport vehicle).

My file of inspirations for mission design does include a 4e Kill Team mission where the Kill Team has to sneak through the Brute squads to the vehicle, get it started, and get out, the time delay of getting the vehicle powered up could lead in a lot of interesting directions.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8914248.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/702135/8914248.page GMT
