Orpheus108 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Greetings All, My first post here with GSC, and I'm very interested in fielding a GSC unit and would like some info on what people think of the GSC in kill team. I know it's still a week off but with what we have seen of the models seen that the GSC can use I'd just like to know what are the pros and cons with them, especially the heavy weapons that they can use I'd mining laser, seismic cannon. I'll run some genestealers of course as I can see them being complete sneaky gits. But what are your thoughts on the models and types of play that suits the cult. Cheers guys Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349028-genestealer-cult-kill-team-units/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheus108 Posted July 23, 2018 Author Share Posted July 23, 2018 Well still looking up all the info about the GSC and would like to if these guys are any good. What else besides the team in the box would be good to get, I was thinking the Genestealer Cults Acolyte & Neophyte Hybrids set from gw or Hybrid Metamorphs and Acolyte Hybrids, both also some genestealers. Side note: loving the guy with the buzzsaw, I can just imagine a dude with a huge buzzsaw running around sneaking up on people trying to halve them Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349028-genestealer-cult-kill-team-units/#findComment-5128978 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axineton Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 How about getting some Astra Militarum and the GSC upgrade sprue? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349028-genestealer-cult-kill-team-units/#findComment-5129212 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAlchemist Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Sadly, no pure strain. I look forward to the new aberrant kit as they look to be our heavy hitters.

ZaelART Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I’ll be swapping my Skitarii sprues for another set of the GSC ones. Looking forward to building a nice KT. The newly leaked models also look great so will probably grab them if they can be used. Didn’t get overkill but wish I did!

wildweasel Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Sadly, no pure strain. I look forward to the new aberrant kit as they look to be our heavy hitters. Purestrain are allowed, there's a line saying to take the Tyrranid datasheet and replace the TYRANID keyword with GENESTEALER CULTS.

Sawtooth Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 The game isn't available yet in my area, though I'm excited for it. With five troop choices it seems like Genestealer Cults have on of the most flexible lineups of all the kill teams. And they can take Aberrants....can anyone else take something quite so hefty? I'm also pretty curious about how well Metamorphs will work in this system.

Akrim Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 The Overkill contents are a fantastic deal. My FLGS still has a copy on the shelf Im tempted to grab.

Sea Reaper Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 With the short range of the play area, how are you finding shotguns on Neophytes?

Orpheus108 Posted August 19, 2018 Author Share Posted August 19, 2018 I've been reading the other forums here with space marines and deaths watch, so far it's been so so with shotguns, but I'll still make a guy with a shotgun and try it out. I have a question for all has players. Do you run the colour schemes from the book from 7th (since 8th ed codex is still not out) or do some of you base your guys off the tyranids hive fleets? The reason I ask is I like the scheme of hive fleet tiamet, I know that you can paint them what ever colour you like but I do like the scheme of the rusted claw, and I enjoy seeing other colour schemes people have come up with.
