Games Workshop kicked up a storm of rumors for the next 40k Kill Team box featuing Jump Pack Tempestus Scions and T’au Empire Vespid.
Brace yourselves for some thrilling rumors that are lighting up the Warhammer hobby front. Word has it that a new 40k Kill Team box is on the horizon, featuring high-flying Jump Pack Tempestus Scions and the swift Tau Empire Vespid. Set against the iconic backdrop of Chalnath Sector, this box might bring back the beloved gothic ruins terrain from the 2021 starter set.
Jump Pack Tempestus Scions and T’au Empire Vespid: New 40k Kill Team Box Rumors!
Rumors are swirling that a new Warhammer 40k Kill Team box is on the horizon, featuring the badass Jump Pack Tempestus Scions and the sleek T’au Empire Vespid, with hopefully all-new miniatures.
This could be the most exciting update since the 2021 Chalnath Sector starter set. Well… if you play Tau and Guard that is!
Chalnath Sector: A Blast from the Past
Remember Chalnath Sector, the backdrop for the 2021 Kill Team starter set (where the Sisters took on Tau)? Well, something from that era may be making a dramatic return, and we couldn’t be more thrilled. The gothic ruins terrain from that set was a fan favorite, but it never got a reprint— until possibly now, if the rumors are true.
The old box had the Novitiates as the new miniatures and an upgrade sprue for the Tau Pathfinders. GW generally likes to put one set of brand new minis in the box and an upgrade sprue. Could this box see new Vespids and an upgrade sprue to add to your Scions?

Leading the charge for the Tempestus Scions seems to be the Tempestor Magnificat Westren. This lady has style, strategy, and a pair of jump packs to get her right into the thick of things. If Westren’s in the box, expect some high-flying heroics and tactical brilliance.
Vespid Buzz: Tau Empire’s Aerial Menace
On the other side, the Tau Empire Vespid are rumored to make their Kill Team debut. These insectoid warriors bring a whole new level of aerial combat to the game. Imagine them zipping around the battlefield, causing chaos from above with some new miniatures—sounds fun, right?
They have needed an update for a while now, and we’ve heard rumors about a rework, but this is the closest thing to confirmation from GW that we’ve seen.
What’s in the Box?
While we can’t confirm the exact details just yet, the speculation is enough to get anyone excited. Picture this: a box packed with Jump Pack Tempestus Scions and Tau Empire Vespid, battling it out in the gothic ruins of Chalnath Sector.
Sounds epic, doesn’t it? Both descend on the battlefield with some speed and plenty of weapons!
Why It Matters
This potential release is more than just new miniatures; it’s about revitalizing the Kill Team scene with fresh tactics and thrilling gameplay. The combination of disciplined Scions and agile Vespid could shake up your battles in the best way possible. Plus, bringing back those gothic ruins would be a dream come true for terrain lovers.
This could also be the first Kill Team box we’ve seen in a while with all new miniatures and not one side just getting an upgrade sprue (but the Scions could easily just get a sprue with new jump packs).
Keep an Eye Out
Stay alert for any official announcements. If these rumors become reality, we’re in for a treat. Whether you’re rooting for the Scions or the Vespid, this Kill Team box promises to add a lot of excitement to your games.
So, ready your forces and prepare for some high-flying action. Chalnath Sector might just be about to get a whole lot more interesting!
