Kill Team: The App 9+

I’m not sure what exactly people were expecting when they were downloading this app. Since it got announcement GW has said it’s literally just going to be for rules. And that’s what it is. Exactly what I expected. I really like that you get a little bit of the lore for each team, and the inclusion of images of models with weapon labels is great to see too. A couple of minor and I mean MINOR complaints is that I wish that keywords could be selectable and it would tell you what that rule is, rather than having to go back to the lite rules keyword section every time. I would also like if each teams Datacards were in a slightly better order. There are multiple teams where the leader doesn’t appear first, or the like the Inquisition team, are just in a strange order. This app is exactly what it said it was going to be, and delivered on that. As with everything GW, there’s always room for improvement :)

Great app great for quick reference when playing the game though a little awkward sometimes. It is great for quick reference to the data sheets and plots but a bit cumbersome when it comes to non faction specific rules. I think in ways to make the app better I have three suggestions.

First have a weapon rules list like in the core rules that is its own tab separate from core rules to make it easier to access. Or have something similar to what apps like new recruit does where you can click on the keyword/ weapon rule and it will show you the exact wording of what that rule does.

Second make it to where the standard rules reference stuff can be accessed through each kill teams page so you don’t have to leave the page to go to the list scroll up to the rules find the rule in question then leave the rules scroll and try to find your team to enter its page to get back.

Third is to have maybe in the mission pack area a tab of preset terrain layouts though this idea is less needed. It would just be more useful for people who don’t really know how to make their own terrain layouts.

I like this app a lot. All the rules for free for every team is a very nice thing. And even though people want a team builder, I think they forget that Kill is almost always an auto include of every unit besides maybe Death Korp and a few others. In kill team there really isn’t any team builder. Enjoy the app. And if you really want to use a team builder use the online KTDash App to make your teams. Don’t review bomb the app it shows you all the important rules for your team and good lite rules.
