– 2 kill teams, made up of 10 plastic Genestealer Cults Hybrids and 10 Skitarii Rangers, along with 2 8-page booklets covering these kill teams, featuring background, painted examples and a timeline of their history;
– 8 plastic frames of scenery, making up a collection of Sector Imperialis buildings for your kill teams to battle over;
– 36 Tactics cards used by any kill team, 12 cards specifically for Genestealer Cults and 10 cards specifically for Adeptus Mechanicus kill teams, 10 datacards each for Genestealer Cults and Adeptus Mechanicus kill teams and 10 blank Datacards;

This is a set of 36 Tactics cards, usable by any Kill Team faction, and 25 blank Datacards:

Perfect for transporting your Kill Team to and from games, this is a carry case constructed from rigid foam – strong enough to protect your miniatures from crushing, flexible enough to provide protection from impact. Smaller than a Citadel Skirmish case, it can nonetheless hold up to 20 models – even larger troops such as Ogryns – with the same channel foam inside cushioning them. Rather than a clasp, the Kill Team Carry Case is secured with a zip which runs around its entire circumference, and it even includes space under the channel foam for your Kill Team datasheets!
This case is coloured black, with an attractive Kill Team logo picked out in orange.

Covering the rules and datacards you need to play games of Kill Team, this is the bundle for the collector who already has the miniatures – in it, you’ll find the Core Manual, and a set of datacards. You’ll be running skirmish campaigns with your Warhammer 40,000 miniatures in no time.
Kill Team Core Manual
The Core Manual is a 208-page softback book which contains complete rules for choosing and constructing a kill team from 16 factions in the Warhammer 40,000 range (Adeptus Astartes, Deathwatch, Grey Knights, Astra Militarum, Adeptus Mechanicus, Heretic Astartes, Death Guard, Thousand Sons, Asuryani, Drukhari, Harlequins, Necrons, Orks, T’au Empire, Tyranids and Genestealer Cults), along with background explaining the importance of kill teams to the wider battle for supremacy:
Kill Team Datacards
Kill Teams must necessarily be able to adapt to the ever-changing circumstances of their mission, reacting to new threats and employing specialist equipment. When you run a Battle-forged Kill Team, as outlined in the Kill Team Core Manual, you gain access to Command Points – these are spent on Tactics; special abilities for each type of troop that can change the flow of battle when judiciously applied. This set of cards is a handy reference for the 36 universal Tactics from the Kill Team Core Manual, along with 25 blank datacards which you can use to record the names and deeds of your own kill team.

Background
– Shadow War: this section of the book takes you through the roles of kill teams in the 41st Millennium – whether surgically removing an enemy commander or dangerous demagogue, desperately fighting their way through a battlefield to reinforce stranded comrades or finding themselves the last line of defence against an overwhelming force, every battle between kill teams tells a story of heroism and adventure;
– Heroes All: every kill team is different, but all have certain features in common – each features a charismatic, cunning or domineering leader and specialists, skilled individuals who bring vital equipment and talents;
– Theatres of War: the supreme commanders of the 41st Millennium have incredible military might at their disposal, and yet there are many scenarios in which the precise application of a small, highly trained force is appropriate. Thousands of war zones have seen drastic changes after a kill team incursion; this section describes but a few of the myriad different environments these small squads have battled in.Rules
– Core Rules: covering the basics of Kill Team, this section takes you through exactly what you need in order to play, explains how to interpret and use datasheets, and how to set up your battle. It takes you through Battle Rounds, which consist of Initiative, Movement, Psychic, Shooting, Fighting and Morale phases with annotated, easy to follow guides and photographs;

– Advanced Rules: this section adds a variety of optional rules for complexity and depth, recommended for use after players are familiar with the core rules. It includes different types of terrain, rules for climbing, mantling, leaping over gaps and covers damage received by falling from heights;
– Killzones: these are environment-specific rules, adding danger and advantages according to the area your miniatures find themselves in. This section includes Sector Imperialis rules, which are designed for use with the scenery found in the box;
– Missions: this section introduces 3 Open, 4 Matched and 4 Narrative play missions, showing you how to pick and choose elements from each to create your own games, the way you want to play them. It includes details of the Scouting Phase, in which planning, preparing and luck can dictate the direction of the battle to be fought. Each included mission features advice on selecting your teams, setup, deployment and victory conditions;
– Kill Teams: this section takes you through building your kill team in a thorough and easy to follow manner, covering Open, Matched and Narrative play-specific teams;
– Command Points: Matched play kill teams can be Battle-forged – this section describes the tactics specific to these teams;
– Specialists: these are experienced fighters with certain abilities, split into 9 disciplines: Leader, Combat, Comms, Demolitions, Heavy, Medic, Scout, Sniper, Veteran and Zealot, each featuring 3 exclusive Tactics. These Tactics are increasingly powerful, and are unlocked by acquiring experience during a campaign;
– Background information for each of the following factions: Adeptus Astartes, Deathwatch, Grey Knights, Astra Militarum, Adeptus Mechanicus, Heretic Astartes, Death Guard, Thousand Sons, Asuryani, Drukhari, Harlequins, Necrons, Orks, T’au Empire, Tyranids, and Genestealer Cults. This section can be used to add character to your kill team, with name and characteristic generators, faction-specific Tactics, and even quirks for each of your squad members. Each faction also features datasheets and comprehensive wargear tables with points lists and abilities.Campaigns
Kill Team can be played and enjoyed in one-off missions, but included are a suite of comprehensive optional rules for fighting multiple battles in a connected series, forming a narrative of covert battles fought alongside a greater war. This section of the book walks you through a Kill Team campaign: the victory conditions, how to select missions, gain experience and upgrade your team, deal with injuries, manage resources and even escalate conflict. This includes blank command rosters and datasheets which you can photocopy and use to keep track of your campaign.
On top of all this is a miniatures showcase, brimming with inspirational photos of kill teams and battle scenes.

Kill Team Carry Case: $35
Perfect for transporting your Kill Team to and from games, this is a carry case constructed from rigid foam – strong enough to protect your miniatures from crushing, flexible enough to provide protection from impact. Smaller than a Citadel Skirmish case, it can nonetheless hold up to 20 models – even larger troops such as Ogryns – with the same channel foam inside cushioning them. Rather than a clasp, the Kill Team Carry Case is secured with a zip which runs around its entire circumference, and it even includes space under the channel foam for your Kill Team datasheets!

The Sector Imperialis Administratum is a formerly towering Imperial building which has been brought low by countless impacts during a long, bitter war. Plenty of hints as to its previous glory are visible – Imperial eagles, vents and pipework still cling to the crumbling edifices, while the ground floor’s gothic window arches remain intact. Above that, however, the building is in ruins, with the inner structure exposed and the arches broken.

The Sector Imperialis Sanctum was once a glorious monument to the Emperor, now fallen into disrepair by centuries of conflict. Still, it is plain to the observer that this is a place of great import – while the gothic arches may be shattered and broken, the impassive statues that guard the Sanctum still stand unbowed atop their imposing plinths, scowling at the alien, the xenos and the heretic with absolute hate.
This kit is comprised of 5 frames of plastic components (100 in total):
– 2 frames each containing 4 wall sections, covered in Imperial iconography (and skulls!), with 4 columns, 3 column top pieces (1 ruined), a vent and 2 small lamps;

The statues are detailed and grim, clad in heavy robes – 1 clutches a cog-toothed axe, 1 rests a sword upon his column with a large set of keys, 1 holds a sextant and lantern and features a choice of broken or intact head, and 1 is chained, clutching a reliquary (this last statue can optionally be assembled broken.) Also included on this frame are 3 small lamps.Rules are included for use in games of Warhammer 40,000.

While battered and broken by countless centuries of gruelling conflict, what remains of the Basilicanum is a testament to the might of the Imperium; a huge gothic structure watched over by 2 enormous statues, it provides cover and high ground for squads of warriors to battle over.
The kit is comprised of 7 frames of plastic components (134 in total):
– 2 frames each containing 4 wall sections, covered in Imperial iconography (and skulls!), with 4 columns, 3 column top pieces (1 ruined), a vent and 2 small lamps;
– 2 frames of ruins and floors, each containing 1 ruined corner piece section, 3 sections of broken floor, 1 section of unbroken floor, 1 small broken column, 4 small broken floor sections, 1 top piece, 2 support arches, 2 lamps which plug into the underside of the floor sections and 1 small circular lamp;
– A frame of ruined Sector Imperialis buildings, making 3 sections of ruins featuring shattered window sections, broken columns and pipework;

The Sector Imperialis Ruins are a set of 4 sections, designed to evoke a city destroyed by brutal warfare. They are what remains of splendid, towering gothic architecture – tall window arches, fluted columns and many, many skulls adorn the walls, with vents, air processing units and pipework giving the kit a used, industrial feeling. Each ruins’ floor section has been designed to leave plenty of space for gaming in – larger miniatures fit easily within.

Killzone: Sector Mechanicus:
Sprawling over countless Imperial worlds, the landscapes known as Sectors Mechanicus are tangled mazes of pipes, conduits and heaving machinery. Without these rumbling furnaces and smog-belching chimneys the ceaseless war industries of Humanity would stall, and the armies of the Imperium of Man – shorn of materiel reinforcement – would fall to the xenos and the heretic.
The Sector Mechanicus Killzone Environment is an expansion for Kill Team – in the packed box, you’ll find a gameboard, scenery, and exclusive rules that use the unique nature of Sector Mechanicus terrain to introduce dangerous new missions and powerful effects to your games. Included:
– A double-sided Kill Team gameboard measuring 22” x 30”, printed on heavy, durable card stock. 1 side depicts a Zone Mechanicus, a bleak and blasted area designed to arrange your Sector Mechanicus scenery on; and the other an Imperial Sector, an area of war-torn city;
– 12 Sector Mechanicus Tactics cards – these can be used by any Kill Team faction, with 8 cards providing interactions with the Sector Mechanicus scenery and 4 being used specifically by Comms and Demolition Specialists;
– A Sector Mechanicus Environment card, which provides 6 different rules allowing interaction – positive and negative – with the scenery;
– 4 Sector Mechanicus Mission cards – designed to be used in conjunction with the gameboard and scenery, this is a set of 2 Matched Play missions and 2 Narrative Play missions, which are split between attacker and defender;
– 8 frames of Sector Mechanicus scenery – providing endless variety, these frames of industrial scenery include a huge array of walkways, platforms, supports, ladders and plasma pipes. Included are enough components to build an Alchomite Stack (a series of chimneys evoking the thick, acrid atmosphere of industry), a Ferrotonic Furnace (an enormous silo filled with toxic chemicals – or worse) and 2 sets of Plasma Conduits. This scenery is designed to be entirely modular, and can be assembled, taken apart and re-assembled any way you like. It is compatible with all Sector Mechanicus scenery – add as much as you like to create massive, multi-level structures for your Kill Teams to battle over;
– An 8-page booklet describing the Sectors Mechanicus, with an example of a fully-painted scenery set.
Kill Team Datacards: $15
Kill Teams must necessarily be able to adapt to the ever-changing circumstances of their mission, reacting to new threats and employing specialist equipment. When you run a Battle-forged Kill Team, as outlined in the Kill Team Core Manual, you gain access to Command Points – these are spent on Tactics; special abilities for each type of troop that can change the flow of battle when judiciously applied. This set of cards is a handy reference for the 36 universal Tactics from the Kill Team Core Manual, along with 25 blank datacards which you can use to record the names and deeds of your own kill team.
Included:
– 36 Tactics cards – these can be used by any faction, and are split between Leader Specialists, Combat Specialists, Comms Specialists, Demolitions Specialists, Heavy Specialists, Medic Specialists, Scout Specialists, Sniper Specialists, Veteran Specialists and Zealot Specialists;
– 25 blank datacards – these feature space for names, stats, loadout and experience, allowing you to build your own custom Kill Teams whichever faction you choose.
That’s it for this week. We can’t wait to get this edition of Kill Team onto the tabletop but, enough about us. What do you think about these new releases?
