[@rmjoumaa29]

Love Narrative Kill Team.

[@simonbergeron2520]

Narrative missions are just cooler! You guys are doing god's work!

[@jponeill2151]

That's "The Emperors work". Heretic.

[@jamesspratley8163]

So excited for this!

[@coldpsyker1354]

love narrative games! Been binging your channel since I discovered it.

[@2CasualYT]

That's awesome to hear, glad you've been enjoying 😄

[@masonbrilliantba]

Just wanna say thanks for this narrative side of kill team. An thanks for the other video's about narrative cause I to have a campaign started in my area!

[@2CasualYT]

I'm glad you enjoyed, and thats awesome! I hope you guys get some memorable games

[@wtfserpico]

Awesome stuff! More narrative please!

[@peterbrown611]

We house rule experience gain: - For kills, you gain XP equal to the killed operative’s APL characteristic. - For mission actions, an operative can score XP equal to its own APL characteristic (still earned at a rate of 1xp per action). - TacOp XP works as normal. It means models start gaining skills sooner (2 or 3 games rather than 5 or 6) and it allows ‘button-pushers’ and designated killers to earn XP at a roughly comparable rate. It also acknowledges how much harder it is to kill an Intercessor than it is a Guardsman or a Cultist.

[@2CasualYT]

That gets you going fast. Highly recommend doing accelerated exp in shorter campaign.or 1 day event A very simple One is simply double exp

[@Panttz12]

Great video guys, one thing I noticed during the video was how hard it was to read those clear blue dice. Maybe swap those out next time :)

[@2CasualYT]

Thanks! We'll be benching those bois

[@daili4917]

Nice to see narrative, thanks for the explanations too - informative and concise!

[@georgekingstone6364]

Both preferred team, awesome!!!

[@mantasignatavicius7787]

Hello guys, love your content just wanted to suggest one thing: I think it would be insanely cool and maybe would bring more viewers to your channel and warhammer community altogether if there would be short recaps of whole mission where your game of 40+ min would be explained in 5 minutes. This would hit people who never played warhammer in real life with dopamine and would highlight the fun parts of knowing all the rules. Of course if only this doesn't add to much of work for your uploads

[@karstenjensen1310]

You should also add a recap video each week to show where the teams are and what their team has currently

[@2CasualYT]

That's a good idea. We plan to do that at the beginning of each video for the teams playing. That way it's all in one place

[@Uknits]

Huzzah! Love to see narrative.

[@filipmaly6603]

Now I am the FIRST! Bow before me and tremble in fear before might of ALGORITHM!

[@2CasualYT]

@DogeThiscz did not get it this day 😆

[@georgekingstone6364]

I love you Pond

This was my first exposure to KT narrative, so I'll be keeping up with it. Looking to get into KT but just waiting to see if they announce a new edition or not.

[@2CasualYT]

Narrative is a silly blast. 😄 Termination is the end of the season for the boxes. We will be getting a new edition of kill team, but it likely wont be for another ~6 months. I don't imagen the core gameplay will be too drastically changed. simplifying how los works may be the biggest thing

[@dwarrenmsp]

@@2CasualYT Good to know, seems like the Starter set is a really good deal even without vantage terrain.

[@2CasualYT]

@@dwarrenmsp It's pretty much the most cost effective deal in kill team. big recommend.

[@user-bc1tf8pp8x]

if i use SUPPLY HOLD strategic asset, can i double rare equipment?

[@2CasualYT]

No, equipment and rare equipment are 2 different things. This only doubles normal equipment. It would be fun and silly if you could though. Rare equipment is supposed to be so rare that you can never get a duplicate

[@voice9893]

16:10 ap2 gun with 4/5 damage why does He Auto kill If you can Roll a 3+ you are golden i dont get it..

[@2CasualYT]

the lokatr in that shooting action was wounded from the previous tp and has only 3 wounds left. with the 4/5 gun and ap2, The archon leader only needed 2 hits to guarantee the kill since the dwarf could only save 1 of them. also, on-gaurd is an overwatch action so BS is worsened by 1 and I hit on 4+. Hope that helped clear up the scene

[@liefericson6496]

Some of the narrative missions are pretty whack, particularly the ones where you get a shitload of points for things at the end of the battle, invalidating everything else from the battle

[@2CasualYT]

Yeah some are pretty wack, tbh some of the most fun and memorable games come from the imbalanced narrative missions.
