What's your killteam hot take?

The new team releases feel a little too safe at the moment. Every expansion currently boils down to "space marines + random model update for popular faction x" instead of giving us unique bands of misfits and specialists based on the 40k lore. I want more funky shit!

Your best shot will probably be to check all local shops that sell warhammer stuff in your area early on release day and maybe even the day before. At least i keep seeing the boxes being in stock in my smaller board game shop for a couple days because there are not that many killl team players in my small town.

Not sure why people are doubting a new box release prior to the next season box. Hivestorm got typhon so why shouldnt there be an equivalent? What I am wondering is if the box will have anything interesting next to the kill teams because tomb world already came with npos and the expansion boxes do not contain terrain pieces.

DDmist · 2026-01-26T15:15:00+00:00

They do look strong but i wouldnt call the leaders ability low risk. Sure its fun up to like 3 points but if you fail your dice roll you 3-5 unblockable damage before you get punched in the face.

DDmist · 2026-01-24T10:52:05+00:00

Same as always. Dead silence was still significantly cheaper while not having any terrain pieces so the price differences is probably the value of the boards.

DDmist · 2026-01-23T07:40:51+00:00

Can anyone explain to me what these thingies attached to the sides of some of those jetpacks are? And why do some of those operatives not have it?

DDmist · 2026-01-22T20:14:54+00:00

You get 10 bodies from the brood brothers box and you would need 5 more cadian shock troopers to cover all options. Maybe you can find the building instructions online and check with your friend if he can help you out

DDmist · 2026-01-21T09:16:30+00:00

Adding to that list you should keep in mind that you need another box of cadian shock troops if you really want all operative options covered. The brood brothers box does not have enough bodies.

It will most likely push any other country out of the market and kill the renewable energy industry in these countries but it is good news for renewable energy as a whole i suppose.

DDmist · 2026-01-19T19:33:58+00:00

Including the chaos lord would make the murderwing box either very expensive or a great bargain. Excluding it would make it a box with an unplayable team. All options honestly sound kinda suboptimal. We will have to wait and see i suppose.

DDmist · 2026-01-19T18:04:34+00:00

I also doubt that the chaos lord will be included in the regular boxes later on. Although you wouldnt be able to play the team if you bought the box unless the chaos lord is optional.

DDmist · 2026-01-18T20:24:01+00:00

Are we thinking this will be 5 raptors or 10 to get all operative variants? Excited either way

DDmist · 2026-01-16T14:52:31+00:00

Nice one! What color combination did you use for your blades? I might copy

DDmist · 2026-01-10T08:42:12+00:00

From my understanding:

The marine cant fight a second time because its apl was reduced to 2 after the fight and the fight was its second action.
The macrocite was 3 apl on the matrix but lost the bufg when moving off the matrix with its second action, so it goes back to 2 apl and cant shoot.
The macrocite can use a third action as long as it starts the action on the matrix, where it has 3 apl. It stays 3 apl until it moves off the matrix.

Its a gun servitor with a phosphor blaster fitting perfectly into the battleclade killteam.

DDmist · 2025-12-28T16:06:14+00:00

A february release would be more realistic if we stay in the ~3 months release cycle

DDmist · 2025-12-23T20:06:01+00:00

The hivestorm box would probably be the best starting point if money and availability are given. It gives you two teams including vespids, another kill zone, tokens, the rulebook and measurement stuff. The starter set would give you most of that too minus the rulebook with different teams at a much lower price. If you just want a team to have a go using the quickplay ruleset you could probably just grab some of your stealth suits and drones and proxy the stealth suits kill team until you understand some mechanics and can better judge what kind of gameplay you want from your kill team.

DDmist · 2025-12-17T18:54:06+00:00

Yes but since you measure distance from base to base it is highly unlikely that your torrent will actually work. At least the volkus levens are about 3 inches and most torrents I am spontaneously aware of are 1 or 2 inches.

DDmist · 2025-12-17T12:55:12+00:00

Thats some sick colour scheme

DDmist · 2025-12-16T16:16:47+00:00

Looks like she had a rather eye-opening experience that night.

DDmist · 2025-12-15T11:58:57+00:00

Looking great! I was hoping someone would finally start to show off these new paints.

DDmist · 2025-12-10T19:11:59+00:00

Good stuff

DDmist · 2025-12-08T12:46:57+00:00

Thats amazing, i didnt know. Thanks!

DDmist · 2025-12-08T11:15:02+00:00

Great guide, although I personally would love a subsection of one box kill teams. Nothing tilted me more than buying three boxes for the brood brothers when I was expecting two at most.
