Kill Team Descends Into a World of Nightmares

The new season of Kill Team began with the space hulk Gallowdark having crashed into the forge world of Bheta-Decima, while teams of Space Marine Scouts and Aeldari Aspect Warriors battled over critical information on the planet’s crumbling sea platforms. Now, two of the most terrifying forces in the galaxy pit their mastery over fear against each other in the aptly named Kill Team: Nightmare.


This packed box contains two complete Kill Teams – the horrifying Nemesis Claw warband of the Night Lords, and a brand new coven of Drukhari Mandrakes.

The Night Lords are transformed by a new upgrade sprue, draped in flayed skins, barbed hooks, and flensed skulls. New parts bring a variety of vicious weapons favoured by the sons of Konrad Curze – including a wicked chainglaive, barbed talons, and knives dripping with paralysing toxins.

Coming soon. More details when we have them.

Take Vanguard Space Marines on Combat Patrol in White Dwarf Issue 496

The first issue of White Dwarf in 2024 is on its way, and it’s bursting with awesome content for all sorts of Warhammer fans. The Slidecrown Sundering campaign reaches its epic finale, and the Bunker has new missions for Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar to bolster your collection of battleplans.


This month’s headline is the debut of a whole new Combat Patrol, with full rules for using a balanced team of Space Marine stealth specialists led by a capable Phobos Lieutenant. This force is designed to be usable alongside all other Combat Patrols, and experienced Space Marine players may already have all of the miniatures they need to use it.

If you’re not already knee-deep in your Chapter’s vanguard, all it takes to build Strike Team Solarien is a Phobos Librarian and the contents of the Vanguard Task Force box – which also gets you extra miniatures on top of the ones you need


This Combat Patrol has a much greater focus on long-ranged combat than the regular Strike Force Octavius, with plenty of movement tricks to get them scooting around the battlefield and capturing objectives. Without the benefit of Terminator armour, they’re much more vulnerable to enemy attacks, and must make the most of their stealth abilities to avoid a sticky end.

White Dwarf is the first place you’ll be able to get hold of the rules for Strike Team Solarien, so be sure to pick up a copy. They’ll be following in the app and on WarCom in a few months time.

That’s not all from the 41st Millennium in this issue either, as Index Xenos takes a deep look at the Necrons’ mighty Sautekh Dynasty – headed up by the infamous Imotekh the Stormlord. Imotekh is a major player in the upcoming Crusade: Pariah Nexus book, and it pays to know what makes the metal monarch tick – whether you’re serving his rule or resisting it


Tale of Four Warlords returns to the Mortal Realms as our commanders add new allies to their forces – by building and painting an entire Vanguard box each! A new Warlord even joins the fray halfway through, so the Stormcast Eternals have a lot of catching up to do.


Elsewhere, there’s heaps of hobby and gameplay content for you to enjoy, including shiny new rules for the recent crop of Cities of Sigmar characters to use in Warhammer Quest: Cursed City. Taking a Freeguild Marshal and the members of his Command Corps into Ulfenkarn is sure to put a spanner in Radukar’s plans, and give you all kinds of new scenarios to try out.

Pick up your copy this Saturday, and save a few pennies as we are now selling it for just £6

Warhammer 40k Kill Team - Salvation

"The industrial world of Bheta-Decima is collapsing, its surface ravaged by the burning debris and tainted inhabitants of the space hulk Gallowdark. In the ensuing chaos, a Magos Biologis sends an urgent distress call – and is answered by a Scout Squad of the Raven Guard, bound by a centuries-old debt to extract him and his research from a crumbling ocean-rig complex. However, a Blades of Khaine kill team has been dispatched to foil their escape – and the very fate of the Aeldari could depend on it."

Kill Team is a fast-paced skirmish game of tactical gameplay and tense missions. The new season starts with Kill Team: Salvation, which sees operatives clash in the ruins of a polluted planet. This boxed set contains two new kill teams – a Scout Squad of Space Marine Neophytes, and a Blades of Khaine kill team formed of vicious Striking Scorpions. You'll also find a Salvation Rig Apparatus terrain set to upgrade your killzone, a book packed with background information, new missions, and rules for both kill teams, plus two sets of datacards and tokens to keep your games running smoothly.

This boxed set contains:

– 88-page softcover Kill Team: Salvation book: All the background, artwork, and rules you'll need for both of the two kill teams in the box, plus the story of Bheta-Decima, new missions, an infiltration campaign, and rules for the Killzone: Bheta-Decima terrain set.
– Scout Squad: Space Marines in training, who use lighter armour and wargear to undertake stealthy missions and prove their mettle. These multipart plastic miniatures include 10x Scouts, each armed with a boltgun, shotgun, or bolt pistol and knife. These models come with a variety of cosmetic and upgrade options, allowing you to build specialists such as a Tracker or Sniper.
– Striking Scorpions: Aeldari Aspect Warriors armed with chainswords and shuriken pistols, trained to hunt in shadow and kill with a sudden strike. These multipart plastic miniatures include 10x Striking Scorpions, two of which can be built as Exarchs with a variety of weapons options, as well as 2x Striking Scorpion Aspect Shrine models to use as tokens.
– Salvation Rig Apparatus: Key mechanisms that control vital functions of the extraction-rig over which both kill teams are fighting. These multipart plastic miniatures includes 5x pieces of Kill Team terrain, intended for use in the missions found in the book, alongside the Killzone: Bheta-Decima terrain set.
– Transfer Sheets: A variety of waterslide decals to easily decorate your kill teams with detailed markings and iconography. Includes 1x Aeldari Craftworld Transfer Sheet, 1x Space Marines Transfer Sheet, and 2x Raven Guard Primaris Transfer Sheets.
– Datacards: Keep games running smoothly with reference cards detailing each team's operatives, Ploys, abilities, equipment, and Tac Ops, plus reference cards for the accompanying token sheets. Includes a deck of 34x Scout Squad Kill Team cards, and a deck of 40x Blades of Khaine Kill Team cards.
– Token Sheets: Easily track abilities, objectives, equipment, and Command Points throughout your game with team-themed tokens. Includes 1x Scout Squad token sheet and 1x Blades of Khaine token sheet, each containing 44x double-sided cardboard tokens.

All miniatures come with appropriate bases. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.

You'll need a copy of the Kill Team: Core Book to use the contents of this set. You'll also need the Killzone: Bheta-Decima terrain set to create the mission maps in the book. Both are available separately.
