Core Mechanics

Warhammer 40,000 Kill Team take the fun strategy of Warhammer 40k tabletop, and compresses it down into a single unit. Instead of having dozens of models in an army, players only need 10. The focus of Kill Team is to treat model as it's own little unit, with different weapons, stats, and special abilities. Players will use strategy and clever reactions to keep their small elite squad of infantry alive while trying to complete and/or block their opponent from completing various objectives across the tabletop.

Warhammer 40,000 Kill Team focuses on 3 main phases, Initiative Phase, Strategy Phase, and Firefight Phase. Players utilize abilities on their unit's datacard and can select from a list of actions that each model can take.



Kill Team Actions

Kill Team focuses more heavily on individual models having a lot more autonomy compared to Warhammer 40,000 tabletop. Players go back and forth activating models and completing actions with them instead of one player completing all the phases in a turn before the next player completes the same phases. This creates a more dynamic gaming experience where players can react to one another's strategies and choices faster.

Players take turns selecting models to complete an action from the list to the left. Each action has an AP(Action Point) cost and each model has a specific amount of AP per turn that is listed in their datacard.
