Kill Team game availability

[Wendigo9]

Hello,

I'm not new to Warhammer but I'm new to the gaming side of things; never had a real opportunity to play up until now. I'm planning out a campaign with some friends that are new to the hobby but I want to make sure I can be informed on what I'm telling them in regards to rules, how the game is played, etc.

Are there any Kill Team games (or tournaments, anything works really) happening somewhat soon where I could sit down to play a first real game? I'm looking to learn and also have a good time with the game before jumping over to 40k proper.

Thanks!

Hey!

There is a sorta regular crew that play at nexus Thursdays.

I personally have a weird schedule and am free during the day. Monday to Friday 11am to 3pm. If that works for you I would gladly show you the game.

Also once SBT makes the move I plan on organizing a tourney there. Probably December.

I would love to be able to make it for the Thursday games, but I tend to have a shift on Thursday evenings, hahaha.

Thanks so much! I have to see what I work next week but if I'm not busy I'll be happy to come out to Nexus for a game. I'll send an update message here when I know.

Update for availability: I'm free Monday and Friday with a preference towards the Friday so I have more time to finish building and painting my team.

I'm running a standard Guard shock troop list with all specialties at least built to have the options available.

If anyone is available on either of those days (though like I mentioned, Friday is definitely better) I'd love to come out for a game.

I appreciate the warm welcome!

[newguy]

Monday during the day? I saw stepwise said he can play during the day Monday so if that works for you I can walk you both through a game and you can play each other.

[StepwisePilot]

Yeah, I'm free Monday, hahaha. I'm technically free Friday, but I was told that something may come up, so I may have to keep it open. I'd know more by Monday if I can do Friday or not.

My Kill Team experience is one game of first edition a few years back, but first edition was very different so it's not really comparable. It did let me know that I like small scale skirmish games (Well, that and a few demo games of Infinity, as well as playing Frostgrave). As such, I'm hoping to have a similar experience here.

[wendigo]

Yeah, Monday will work. I just might not have the minis finished to a good standard, but I'll see what I can do in between work hours until then.

What time should I go down to the Nexus?

Thanks again!

For what it's worth, my Kill Team models aren't painted at all. They are primed, and I hope to do a few base colours tomorrow though.

As for what time to go to Nexus, I'm fine whenever. According to google, they are open 10-6 Monday. So, let me know when works for you.

I'm Alex by the way. I'll look forward to seeing you. (I should note that I'm awful at remembering names, so please don't be offended if I forget yours)

[wendigo]

Sounds good. I just have to finish building my final members as well as bringing the bases of the rest up to my new standard after work tomorrow/Sunday. I doubt I'll get any paint on them being realistic with green stuff drying time and whatnot but I guess we'll see what happens!

Worse case scenario and I don't have the proper time to finish building the full team I'll just bring my Octarius orks.

How's between 12:00 and 1:00pm sound for a meet-up time? Not too late and not too early in my books.

And I'm Duncan, no worries if you forget. I'm not the greatest with new names either lol

[newguy]

Yeah sounds good. I'll be there for noon.

[StepwisePilot]

I can be there for noon.

[sean]

I could potentially come as well.

[StepwisePilot]

So, today ended up being really busy for me, and I didn't have to to read the rules. I'll try to learn as much as I can tonight, but given past history I probably won't be ready for tomorrow.


EDIT: Yeah, I'm nowhere near ready, so I'll have to duck out again. I'm really sorry for this.

[newguy]

You don't need to know the rules. I'll be there walking you through it.
