r/kroot

I'm new to Warhammer ish, the game I've never played but I've painted a bit, I'd loveee to collect a kroot army but they're so expensive, I don't have a clue how they play really but they look sick. Any tips on getting into them without going broke? I realise the combat patrol is suuuper low points 😭

Thanks 🙂🙏

Im still new to the game, so I’m not sure how army color rules totally work. Am I able to run a Kroot Kill team where each member was a different color, or different shades of a color? I like the idea of the members of the kill team being various shades of green/yellow, but still want to keep it playable in local games.

Hi, i am almost completing the painting process of this Kroots combat patrol (the newer one with farstalker) and with the actualization to 11th i no longer have the rules of this combat patrol in the app and it didn't have a pdf version.

maybe someone has screenshots?

I am seriously debating starting a kroot army, what's the best way to get to 750-1000 points?

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?

Anyone got any cool kroot/jungle themed terrain for 40K? Curious to see if anyone has any neat terrain they are using.
