Beginner questions: What Kill Team to start and what other boxes needed to start?
I’d like to get started with Warhammer: Kill Team, together with a friend. I’ve got absolutely no previous experience with Warhammer myself, but I’m generally keen on games and have played titles like Zombicide and Blood Rage. I realise that Kill Team is in a league of its own and can’t really be compared to those. I’ve been busy watching Kill Team rules videos and battle reports on YouTube and I’m getting more and more hyped.
I currently have two key questions:
1. Which faction should I choose as a beginner? My mate plans to start with the Wrecka Krew. That’s certainly worth knowing, as I’ll only be playing with him to begin with and it should, of course, be fun when our factions clash. I’ll definitely have a look at this guide (https://www.reddit.com/r/killteam/comments/1kugcck/best\_beginner\_kill\_teams\_for\_3rd\_edition/), but I’d also love to hear your thoughts. So, for me, the more important question is this:
2. Apart from our respective Kill Teams, what other boxes or sets do we need to get started? Starter Boxes, Terrain Boxes, Rule Book and so on. I haven’t quite got my head round that yet. Or would it make sense to buy a complete box like the Hivestorm Box? If one of the teams included appeals to me and we can still get hold of the box somewhere. I’ve read that it contains everything you need to get started. And I thought the game board and terrain pieces were really nice. I’ve seen other terrain pieces, and I found those a bit too simple.
I look forward to your advice – please bear in mind that, as a beginner (or even before that), I still need to get to grips with it all 😉 Thanks in advance!
