Kill Team: Hivestorm - English

Kill Team is a fantastic standalone game from Games Workshop, set within the Warhammer 40,000 Universe. Kill Team is a fast-paced, action-packed tabletop game that puts two deadly kill teams against one another in a ferocious battle to the death. Games can be as swift as a 40-minute skirmish or can be extended into a full-scale campaign. Every game you play develops your squad, improving their abilities and expanding their skill trees, where even lowliest trooper can grow in power, skill and experience to evolve into a battle-hardened warrior.

The Kill Team rules can be compared to those from Warhammer 40,000 as both are geared towards fighting in the 41st Millennium, both deal with a lot of the same core systems and general principles. Warhammer 40,000 is on a larger scale than Kill Team and concentrates on the grand plans, sweeping manoeuvres and the clash of massive armies, whereas Kill Team is all about moment-to-moment action.

The countless billions of human soldiers who form the ranks of the Astra Militarum defend the Imperium of Man from swarms of enemies bent on its destruction. Despite all that is set against them, the Imperial Guard, as they are otherwise known, use deadly war machines and rely on the courage of their guardsmen to shield humanity.

The primary fighting force of the Imperium, the Astra Militarum is so vast that no one can accurately place a count on the number of Guardsmen filling its ranks. The lists of new recruits and toll of casualties can run into the millions in a single day. It is believed that there must be many billions of Guardsmen, divided into millions of regiments. These overpowering numbers provide the Guard with its main advantage - their ability to deploy attacks in seemingly endless influxes across battle-zones. Charging forth under the cover of massive barrages and delivering massed Lasgun volleys, in the Guard the individual Human soldier may appear a lost thing, almost forgotten. Yet the actions of these anonymous soldiers daily decide the fate of worlds.

Introducing two new Kill Teams jam-packed with amazing new rules, miniatures, and terrain pieces, this starter set is the perfect stepping stone to begin your Warhammer 40,000 games: Kill Team. First, introduce the special operatives of the Tempestus Aquilons, specialised troops who descend from the skies directly on top of their foes, raining gunfire and grenades. The Vespid Stingwings use their superior technology and mobility to pick targets off and devastate the battlefield with their Neutron guns.

Also found within this starter is the Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team Core Rulebook in a softback format and the Hivestorm Dossier, which goes into detail about the plot and campaign for Volkus and includes rules for both teams.
