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?

Did the Flesh Shaper lose Support?

As the title states, did they lose support? It's no longer in the app, and I don't see it on Wahapedia either.

Seeking guidance on Kroot gameplay as a beginner

As the title states, I'm quite new to both Warhammer 40k and kroots. I made a list for a 1k Kroot army. I'm just wondering if there is any gameplay available that I could review so I can get a better grasp on what I need to look out for and how best to play? Or if there is somewhere I can reach out to more experienced players that would be able to explain it to me through e.g. Tabletop Simulator?

Beginner player 40K advice for playing Kroot as first army

As the title states, I'm rather new to the game of 40K. I played a few games of combat patrol and tested 1K. It's a lot of information to learn everything at once. What are some core mechanics and stratagems I should learn how to use that would help improve gameplay with my Kroots?

First paint job Kroot Farstalker

As the title states, this is my first actual paint job. This was done in preparation for a Combat Patrol event. I'm honestly pretty excited about it and would love some feedback. Since I'm building towards a 2k army, the farstalkers and carnivores will be mostly batch painting with contrast and speed paints. I would love to look into edge highlighting and maybe other things for the characters and krootoxes. Any tips or advice is more than welcome!

Expanding to 2k from pure Kroot

I am currently at 1k pure kroot list. I have gotten 2 Kroot hunting pack boxes and a Kroot Combat Patrol. On top of that I got a Trail Shaper, an extra Lone Spear and 10 Kroot Hounds. What would be the easiest and/or best way to expand to 2k based on what I have?

I am about to put together my Kroot Hunting pack army set and the Combat patrol but I am wondering if I should magnetize certain models. I've never magnetized models before so I am still a bit clueless how best to do it and plan for it.

Do you guys have advice on what I should magnetize and how best to go about it?

Hi Guys,

As the title says, I just picked up the Kroot combat patrol. I am looking into getting to 1k on just kroots. (People mainly play 1k at our game shop and I would like to try to join some time).

Do you guys have any advice?
