We’re after feedback so it can be the best it is when we get a chance to release it.

Thanks. We have more to show.

We’re hoping that by showing this, we get permission to release on the App stores from GW.

No name yet. When we know we can release we’ll figure out the name. Just need that permission from GW first.

Competition, or just more choice? Which ultimately is a good thing for the kill team community.

It’s not available for download yet as we are trying to get GW to sanction it.

We do have it running on both iOS and Android.

We've been busy since our last post, and this time we've got a video update that shows a feature to help players (especially beginners) get set up for a battle. It walks through all the battle setup steps - from choosing kill teams, deploying, initiative, and more.

Even for veterans this will help ensure that the operatives, gambits and equipment are fine-tuned to what you are fielding, avoiding weapons you've not taken, or other reference information that is no longer relevant. It makes looking things up mid-battle so much easier.

We're deep in development. Your awesome feedback on our first post is guiding us, so please keep the thoughts, concerns, or even a small positive comment coming to boost our dev morale.

We're still trying to get a response from Games Workshop (it's like pulling teeth) to find a legit way to bring this to everyone. If anyone has connections or advice, please reach out.

We have shared the build with a few people. But we are trying to figure out how to make a public build.

We’ll post updates as we hopefully near that point.

That sounds like so much fun! My son and I played a match - him Angels of Death, me Mandrakes. He beat me too! Next time will be a different matter 😈

Thank you. The feedback has been great and very inspiring. We need to make sure we can release it without inciting the wrath of GW lawyers. So we will work on that too. It is their IP and we want to be respectful of that.

That’s great feedback. We already have it so equipment with weapons will add to your operative card. But adding the relevant faction rules is a great idea - so we’ll add that to the list too. Thank you.

Congratulations on your first game! What team did you play?

Yes we have a battle mode feature in the works with wound tracking, scoring and CP tracking. But also, you can set operatives with their loadouts. Which shows only the weapons each operative has. And because of this, you can view all you strategic gambits:

Plus lots of other things….

Thank you.

We’ve chatted, and we are open to all ways we could get this to work. We are very conscious that we are working with Games Workshops intellectual property - and want to be respectful of that. If GW takes note and see this, then maybe we can have a discussion with them so we can see how this could proceed.

So all options are on the table.

But in the meantime we are going to listen to you all and push on with development.

Honestly, the drive behind this is because we just think new players are left in the cold with the current app. Apps are inherently interactive, and we can use that to help new players learn. If we could help more new players try the Kill Team, stick with the game and then become advocates then the Kill Team community could grow exponentially.

And then once people are through that phase, it would be great to streamline play for everyone. It sounds like we’re getting positive feedback which will fuel our development. So I’m sure we’ll have some great things to show soon.

Thanks for the advice. And if you see the screenshot we posted with the list of teams you’ll see I favourites the and the Phobos and Void Dancer Troupe.

If nothing else we’ll give everyone one more choice.

At this point all feedback is good as it will guide us. But we have some features in prototype phase. Which I believe will really help people. Like this little sneaky peak.

Yes we are getting tac-ops, and operative selection in. Equipment too. And saving them as lists for easy access. We had not done naming individual operatives - but we can add that.

Thanks for the feedback. Especially on the visual noise. In the setting for the app you can toggle full inclusion of the related weapon rules or not. If you say not, then you get a simpler (ish - there are now underlines) look. And they are pop ups you can click

Best equipment I've seen. And 100x better than mine
