Small team. Critical mission. No mercy.
Kill Team is not about massive armies. It's about a few elite operatives sent where armies cannot go.
They leave trenches, front lines, and thousands of soldiers behind. Instead, you navigate narrow corridors, city ruins, factory complexes, and secret bases.
Every soldier has a name. Every shot counts. One wrong decision can mean the end of the entire mission.
If you’re drawn to Warhammer 40K without huge armies, with focus on tactics, movement, and decision-making, Kill Team is the perfect entry point.
What is Kill Team?
Kill Team is a standalone game in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, focused on small elite squads.
Instead of dozens of models, you control 6–14 operatives. Each has their own gear, abilities, and role.
- ⚔️ smaller table
- ⏱️ shorter games (45–60 minutes)
- 🧠 greater focus on tactics
- 🎯 less randomness, more decision-making
Why is Kill Team ideal for beginners?
You don’t need to build and paint dozens of figures.
One box = playable team.
Every move and shot matters.
Factions correspond to Warhammer 40,000.
Which factions can you play?
Kill Team uses factions familiar from Warhammer 40,000: Space Marines, Chaos, Imperium, and Xenos.
Each team has a different style: elite marines, fast scouts, dangerous specialists, or large units.
