Learning Warhammer and Kroot at 1k
I've been playing Kroot Hunting Pack in my first few games of Warhammer 40k. I've 6 into Black templar, World Eaters, and Custodes thus far. I have a feeling that I am not quite sure how to play against heavy melee units. Should I just take my losses, get some points and use Join the Hunt in order to score later again? I'm just a bit lost on what kind of game plans I should look into when playing Kroot. Can you guys help me with some things I should think about when playing Kroot Hunting pack (just pure Kroot) and what are things I should do?
