Warhammer 40,000 : Kill Team Core Manual
L**1
Everything you need to know to set up and start playing these different rules for Kill Team.
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.

A downgrade on existing skirmish games
I was very much looking forward to Kill Team, but have been left disappointed. Even when comparing it to Shadow War, 40k’s previous skirmish incarnation, it comes off poorly. The rules are overly complicated, the rulebook is poorly written with many ambiguous interpretations, and the game play nothing more than a dice-grind with most of the important tactical decisions made before models are even placed on the board. The game isn’t even that quick to play: Sure, I’ve had a few games that were over in half an hour, but normally games last 1.5-2hrs, with a few going on for 3hrs. Want to know which tactics you can activate this turn? Best look through 6 different pages of the rule book then! The promised support for narrative play is entirely absent and the league rules are a complete joke – I WON my local league and I still think they are a joke. At the end of the league, most of the players asked the gaming club to go back to Shadow War.The nub of it is this: When I played Shadow War, I felt like I was simulating a battle in dice-form. It was fun and there were stories of heroism and bravery to tell afterwards. When I play Kill Team I feel like I am just finding exploits in rules. None of my models move or act like people, just nodes of rule-manipulation. After 9 games I have no epic tales to tell.The whole thing feels like a skirmish game rushed-out to bring the rule set into line with 8th edition 40k. The ideas behind it were good, but not enough play testing was done.
