Games Workshop Warhammer 40,000 Kill Team Core Manual

Physical nature. Full size softbound book, 210 full color pages. Paper quality is very high, the book mostly stays open if you open it, but not completly. Binding quality is mediocre, I reccomend having it spiral bound if you will be using it regularly.This book is a skirmish style wargame using the Warhammer 40k and based on the 8th edition Warhammer 40k ruleset. It is a complete ruleset that provides a fun and quick playing game with interesting choices. With this book, some dice, some miniatures and some terrain, you have everything you need for a game. Games take around 30 minutes to play.The game has some intersting changes from 40k, with some alternating activations included. The army lists are intentionally limited in scope, and many of the armies play very differently. Typically each team will include between 6-15 (you're permitted up to 20) models on the board, depending on playstyle. Each team can have up to four specialists (one of which must be a leader), these specialists get additional abilities they can use during the game above and beyond their normal model's abilities. Additionally they can "level up" in a campaign and become stronger with more abilities to use.Overall Kill team is a great game, very fast paced and fun. The investment required is far lower than Warhammer 40k, and provides a great entry point, or alternative to that game. All models in kill team are also useable in regular 40k, so one can always expand one's kill team into a full army.The price point is very good for such a complete experience. Games Workshop has also issued errata and a FAQ for the book, showing their continued commitment to this product. There are a wide variety of expansions and boxed sets for use with this game, many including tactics cards. But this book alone provides a complete and fun experience, you won't be missing out if you only buy this.Internal Kill team balance isn't perfect, but its pretty good. Shaking up the mission, map, and terrain will encourage people take balanced lists that can mitigate some of the somewhat unbalanced teams that are included.All in all I'm exceptionally impressed. This is the 40k product I've wanted for quite a while. Unfortunately as of January 2019, the starter set (which included this book, terrain, map, and miniatures) is out of production, but the relatively low price point of this book did not leave me feeling I missed out much by not being able to buy it within that boxed set. My only complaint is that its softbound, and won't stay completly open flat during gameplay.

Even though GW is coming out with a new Kill Team in August, this is still a great game for Warhammer 40k skirmish battles and a must for anyone who wants to play the game without having to take out a bank loan or sign a deal with the devil to afford a decent army of miniatures. You get information and stats on nearly every faction in 40k (except demons and Sisters of Battle which are in Kill Team Annual 2019) so you can play any of them you might want. Best of all, you can usually buy one box set of miniatures (maybe two at the most) and field a Kill Team. If you're playing some of the more expensive factions like the Space Marines a single box set of 10 miniatures can easily give you two full teams. It's a nice game for playing 40k on a budget. Highly recommend it.

The book is sleek and looks great, but you will want to be careful with it as it is not hard back. As for the game itself, its fast, cheap (compared to the main warhammer games), and you dont need to buy other books to play, unlike 40k that requires the rule book and at least one army faction book. Unless you are playing in tournaments, you do not even need the games actual models, but it much better to as they come with proper bases that you do need. If this is your first time getting into a game like this i recommend getting the Warhammer 40,000 first strike box as it gives you basically two armies to play with for cheap. Overall:Biggest pro: fast, fun and relatively small space needed to playBiggest con: If you want a large battle feel this game wont scratch that itch.

Love the game, it is much faster than a traditional 40k game, and in many cases more interesting. However, buying the book alone is challenging. The board is easy to create (30" x 22" from a piece of plywood or whatever), but the data cards, which seem simple, are really needed. With the data cards (hopefully a unique set for each player), it is much easier to track what you can do, etc. I'd recommend buying the datacards off of the interwebs to supplement this. Oh, and golf markers are great for objective markers.

If you play Warhammer or other Skirmish games:This is a great value.We used to play about 2 to 4 games a year of warhammer.*( we have large / expensive armies and nobody ever wants to play a small game )BUT: with Kill team / we play two or three games a night each / on weekends.It is fast enough to learn, has loads of optional rules and features. There are some RPG elements to it if you like....

This book is a great way to start playing Kill Team.You will also want the Elites book and some tokens.Kill Team is another fun way to use those models you already spent money on, or as a gateway into the 40k universe.

Kill Team is a great way to play Warhammer 40,000 without having to invest a large amount of money or time in the hobby. It can be a great entry point for the larger game or a wonderful game in itself. This book contains everything short of a squad of models to play the game. It has a bit of background information on the different armies, instructions on creating a squad, and missions.

I started with this book to get into kill team, and i have not been disappointed. This product is great for those who want to play 40k on a budget, all you need to play kill team is a few models and this book. Great product all around i would reccomend kill team to those who want to play 40k on a budget.

Got this for my Son as a Christmas present. There’s quite a lot of detail in here and explains as you would expect how to build a kill team for use with your 40k models. This spans different types such as marines, Orks , Xenox etc. It’s a different approach to a full scale battle and much easier to setup and get a quick game in when pressed for time.

Not as good as Shadow Wars - apocalypse. Great sellervthough.

On Time, well protected. perfect condition

Great game if your a fan of 40 k this is for you
