Reply To: Kill Team – price leak?

@tankkommander your point regarding the number of additional squad boxes is a valid one, however, that’s based on the assumption that you only ever want to build only one specific Kill-team with a very specific weapon load-out, from one faction/sub-faction unit only, say for example, the Space Marines’ poster-boys, the Ultrasmurfs, and nothing else.

If you were then to look at it from the broader perspective that in having a number of “spare” models, it’s now possibleto build a number of additional Space Marine Kill-teams with a variety of weapon load-outs and/or painted in a variety of chapters other than Ultrasmurfs then this makes it far more flexible and in a sense, cost-effective, than trying to build the same variety into a standard 40k army build.

Granted, if you only wanted the one Kill-team, it seems kind of  waste but step back and look at what could be done with the leftovers, it’s conceivably the opposite.
