Product detailed description
| Battlefield Role | Unique Features | Difficulty | Player Tip |
|---|---|---|---|
| Elite skirmish infantry specializing in stealth, ambushes, and morale disruption | Translucent-style bale-fire effects, elongated limbs, and otherworldly, chilling designs | Intermediate, due to the delicate nature of the bale-fire details and the need for precision painting | Use their ability to redeploy from shadows to secure objectives deep in the enemy's territory unexpectedly. |
Kill Team: Mandrakes
Emerging from the darkest corners of Commorragh, the Mandrakes are a terrifying addition to any Drukhari force. These supernatural assassins specialize in silent infiltration and lethal strikes, utilizing chilling bale-fire that freezes the soul before it destroys the body. This box provides everything you need to field a complete kill team, offering both a unique painting project and a formidable tactical asset for your games.

- Fully playable in both skirmish games of Kill Team and standard Warhammer 40,000

Masters of the Bale-Fire
Mandrakes are the stuff of nightmares, even among their own kin. As creatures half-formed from shadow, they can manifest wherever darkness pools, making them impossible to pin down. Each miniature is expertly sculpted to capture their unsettling, organic texture and the eerie flames of the bale-fire they carry. They are as much a collector's dream for painting as they are a nightmare for your opponents on the tabletop.
Faction Integration
Whether playing in Kill Team or bringing them into a larger Drukhari army for Warhammer 40,000, Mandrakes act as the ultimate infiltration unit. They thrive on the fringes of the battlefield, isolated from the main host, where they can execute their own deadly agendas.
Why Add Mandrakes to Your Collection
- Exceptional mobility and the ability to strike from unexpected locations
- A distinct visual aesthetic that stands out in any Drukhari force
- Versatile tactical role as both a specialized kill team and a disruptive elite unit
Tactical Considerations
- Fragile Ranged Units: Mandrakes excel at closing the distance and isolating vulnerable support units or snipers.
- Heavy Armor: While lethal against infantry, they may struggle against heavily armored vehicles and require support to soften those targets first.
- Battlefield Performance: Mandrakes are not a frontline brawling unit. Their strength lies in precision, stealth, and exploiting the weaknesses in your opponent's defensive line.
