Preview here

A bit surprised that the Haemonculus is in there, given the lack of any Coven units in the game itself.

I wanted my Kill team to be Coven so badly. I honestly am thinking of just doing Coven with a Haemonculus and using Wych/Kabal rules.

I have some conversion ideas i wanted to do with them.

At least i can have a Haemonculus HQ.

It works great with the fluff that I established for my army back in 3rd edition - that the loyalty of my kabal's associated wych cult is secured mostly via my master haemonculus' supply of drugs, and so wyches often accompany my haemonculi on raids.

All have a place in the supplement, fans of KT will not be disappointed.

I've been really impressed with how fun Kill Team is so far, though I've only had one campaign. I hope the inclusion of HQs helps to give us an edge over lists that can pack more special weapons than I can count (guard comes to mind.)

Looking at our previewed characters compared to some of the other factions and I think we're looking pretty unimpressive, especially against psykers. Do we have any psychic defence at all in KT?

Im way out of the loop so I have no idea what wargear is available in the main dex for HQs but past those possibilitites the answer is; No, we basically skip the Psyker phase.

On the positive side, psychic powers are considerably weaker when they're only affecting a single model. I don't think skipping the phase entirely leaves us at too much of a disadvantage.

Still think GW should include more models for kill team.

Would be great if we could use mandrakes for kill team, or aspect warriors of craftworlds.
It`s just feels odd that only troops choises are allowed.

Unless I missed something, the Succubus doesn't have the option for a blast pistol. I find this particularly odd, since I'm *pretty* sure that giving her a blast pistol was mentioned as a possible option in the official preview materials for Commanders.
