My blog is primarily my own personal fluff in the Warhammer 40,000 universe regarding the Draconis system such as the Knight House Yato in Ryusei, their Household Militia, the Draconian Defenders, and the Forge World of Draconis IV with its Adeptus Mechanicus priesthood, Cybernetica cohorts and Skitarii legions, and the Titan Legion, Legio Draconis, known as the Dark Dragons.

Kill Team out in August?

Just saw this little video from the official Warhammer 40,000 Facebook page. It features the Dakka Boy, but stay tuned until the end. Seems like Kill Team will be released in August? I may be jumping the gun here, but it says find out this August, so...yeah!


Never mind. Warhammer 40,000 Facebook page has just officially confirmed it, the box set is definitely due in August. Better start saving now! Woohoo!

Maybe Kill Team will be released in August! Also, just so you guys know, we have a new Kill Team webpage.


I'm not sure, but it appears that Veteran Guardsmen are their own faction and different from Imperial Guard. Sure, you get Militarum Tempestus Scions for Imperial Guard, but nobody is going to use a regular Guardsmen team when you have Veteran Guardsmen. I'm not sure how different they are, maybe the Veteran Guardsmen cost more (which makes sense), but come on, of course the points will be worth it.




Same goes for the Orks. You have the regular Greenskins, and then you have the Kommandos. Interesting. Perhaps the roster will be expanded in the future. But for now we have Veteran Guardsmen versus Kommandos for a very thematic setup! Cool!

As an aside, we no longer have Terminator Kill Teams - they have been removed from the roster for both Space Marines and Thousand Sons. So no more Scarab Occult Terminator Kill Teams. Ugh, that sucks. Who the f fields Tzaangors in kill teams? They are horde units. Kill Teams should be elites, like Veteran Guardsmen. At least I can still field my Sicarian Ruststalkers as part of a Skitarii Kill Team, along with my Rangers and Vanguard.

However, judging from how Imperial Guard and Veteran Guardsmen, as well as Greenskins and Kommandos, are separate factions from each other, I daresay there will be future expansions. Most likely Loyalist and Chaos Terminators will have their own separate factions when Kill Team grows larger. Maybe. Who knows? Only the Emperor, I suppose...
