Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000 - Killzone Octarius (Scenery Set)

Product Information

Unique actions are actions detailed on an operative’s datacard that only they can perform, such as the Dakka Dash action found on the example datacard. Curabitur blandit, erat at ultricies pretium, libero dui sollicitudin enim, et sodales nisl augue nec mauris. In that sense, we might see new kill teams that look more like Underworld warbands than new units for 40k. Rounding out the Boyz are the Comms Boy , who can score mission objectives for 1 fewer APL or spend an action to give another model +1 APL for the turn, the Burna Boy , whose burna is outstanding against hordes of grouped-up weaker models, and the standard-issue Kommando Boy , who’s really there for situations where one of the other Boyz isn’t a flatly better choice – burnas won’t get much done into Space Marines, so why not bring someone with a choppa? Finally at the end of the Strategy Phase players can reveal a Tac Ops card – these are the semi-randomised secondary objectives created using the card decks mentioned earlier – the key thing here is that you don’t have to reveal to your opponent what they are, but some can only be scored after revealing them – meaning that you are always guessing what secondaries your opponent might be trying to get into position to score.

Volatile Promethium: Each time a friendly operative makes a shooting attack, if the target is carrying an objective marker, in the Roll Attack Dice step of that shooting attack, if you retain any critical hits, the fuel canister might explode.JAMMERS [1EP]Once per Turning Point, when the Defender rolls to see if a Relief Force operative arrives in the killzone, an operative equipped with jammers can use them. As you can see, they are great models with loads of detail and give you an entire until of different looking operatives each with their own personality – just like with the Krieg you can also arm them with more ordinary loadouts for use with 40k, but honestly I’d go with the cool Kill Team loadouts – and it looks like in the new Ork Codex you can actually take them with all this gear anyway! At the end of the battle, for each of the Defender’s Spy operatives that are on the battlefield and injured, or that are on the battlefield but not on a Vantage Point of a terrain feature that is wholly within their drop zone, the Attacker scores 1VP. These effects may not be enough to win outright against dedicated melee specialists, but the ability to negate two normal hits per fight will keep them in the fight longer. Kill Teams of around 10 models jostle for control of a key objectives in tight and dense terrain as they try and set up beneficial vantage points while out manoeuvring their opponents in deadly skirmishes.

MISSION RULES Ruse: After the Defender has selected their kill team, they must divide their kill team into two forces, with as equal a number of models in each as possible. In the box we also get two books – the Core Book with the main rules for playing games of Kill Team and the Octarius supplement containing lore about the Octarius system, the rules for the content in the box and some Octarius themed narrative content! Kill Team Octarius is not available forever, but I would highly recommend picking it up and giving this skirmish system a go and getting your hands on the models in this box a little earlier than they are available seperatly!

Kill Team Octarius is an outstanding set, not only does it contain some stunning miniatures such as the new Ork terrain, Kommandos and plastic Death Korps, but it is also a much needed refresh of the Kill Team.
