After nearly a decade away from the hobby, 9th edition and a kid old enough to be interested has rekindled by interest, so I decide to ease myself back in with a Kill Team, and I liked the look of the Genestealer Cult (who were, uh, not a thing last I played). So here's the first half of the core of the Team. I will eventually (probably) expand the Kill Team to a Combat Patrol and I wanted the Kill Team to look distinct from the regular Neophytes, so I combined the Orlock gang with the Cult upgrade sprue to produce these jokers. Colour scheme was limited to the paints in the starter paint kit as my old collection have thus far resisted my attempts at necromancy, but I like the yellow anyways so it works out.

Noticing how the cult scout/armoured sentinel datasheet in Codex:GSC is a different datasheet from the scout/armoured sentinel datasheet in Codex:Astra Militarum, the following list came to my mind ... okay, to be honest, I though about running a bunch of sentinels with missile launchers and hunter killer missiles (HKMs), but after fiddling around and noticing what I could take instead of the HKMs, I arrived at the following list: Genestealer cult (outrider detachment) HQ Jackal Alphus 70 Fast Attack 3x Cult Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Cult Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Cult Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Cult Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 3x Cult Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 3x Cult Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 Heavy Support 3x Brood Brother Heavy Weapons Team, mortar 33 3x Brood Brother Heavy Weapons Team, mortar 33 Astra Militarum (outrider detachment) HQ Primaris Psyker, force stave 46 Fast Attack 3x Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Scout Sentinel, multilaser 105 3x Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 3x Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 3x Armoured Sentinel, plasmacannon 120 Heavy Support Basilisk, heavy bolter 108 Basilisk, heavy bolter 108 total: 1748 pts 36 sentinels, 2 vehicles, 2 hwts, 2 characters tactic: swarm the board with walkers while the psyker helps the basilisks and mortars. Meanwhile, the alphus snipes characters. Obviously, this 8th edition list is inspired by 7th edition "emperors talon recon company" formation. Given the size of sentinels, it's probably a pain to transport. I don't have enough sentinel models to field even a fourth of the list. Well, tbh, I probably won't be able to ever field this list. Like dreadnought only lists, there's too much wounds concentrated on only a few models. So, I wouldn't recommend anyone to actually build this.
