The new 2018 edition of Kill Team is IMO a very solid one.
While the rules are a bit difficult to get into if you play the current 40K, it is a great, easy and also challenging game.
A "what is different to 40K" sheet would help!

Anyway, the great thing about KT for all painters and modelers is the incredible low mini count to get playing. If you go for Primaris Marines you can field a team with 5 (!) models. A design goal that I also achieved with my “Victory Decision Raid!” book.
I added my finished Ad Mech Team here: http://www.adpublishing.de/html/kill_team.html

Kill Team - Rogue Trader
The start of my Rogue Trader team. While waiting for the KT Rogue Trader box to arrive I decided to dig out some old minis and paint them as my Rogue Traders.

Above you see the stand ins for Sanistasia Minst, Elucia Vhane and Aximillion.
An really old metal Sister Hospitaller, Jack "Captain Blood" Meinhardt from Artel W and the Karakulak space cat from the "Colony 87 - 28mm Sci-Fi Civilians" Kickstarter.


The Jack mini really captures the essence of an intrepid Rogue Trader up on the edge of the Imperiums space to me.

Very cool!

They look good.

Yes, I know what you mean. Kill Team is pushing my buttons because my normally tight-fisted self has spent $441 dollars in two months. That's what I usually spend hobbywise in two years! And despite my growing dislike of painting, I'm excited to paint my new Deathwatch. It's the customizing the Chapters ... I've spent a lot of time reading the 40k wiki and selecting obscure Chapters that pads are provided for, trying to avoid the usual GW poster boys. Since Kill Team Cassius is in transit some of the poster boys will be joining anyway. (And at least Black and Silver is within my abilities.)

Also scooped up the Last Chancers set so I'll have to try a fluffy IG team for that whole "Dirty Dozen" motif.

Major Moustache there is excellent - my buddy just picked one up. I'd use one to run my IG if I had an army like that.

Thanks folks!

A very characterful bunch! They are well painted, I find the faces and eyes especially impressive. The red cloth could be a bit better; it might be worth the effort to pretty it up a bit since there's so much of it.

The 1st Voidsman! The mini is from Anvil Industries and might serve double duty as a Victorian SF Marine of Captain Nemo.

I also finished my 1st text piece of the new terrain:



and as always more on my site: http://www.adpublishing.de/html/kill_team.html

The 2nd Voidsman! The mini is a GW Militarum Tempestus Scion with a Dreamforge Panzerjaeger head!

The Jack Rogue Trader minis somehow has a strong Teutonic look to me, maybe it is the cybermonocle!
Consequently I thought that the Indian look Voidsman is not really fitting and went for a Teutonic scion look.

Another Voidsman!


Same conversion idea as the 2nd.

The start of my Bladed Cog Kill Team Cult! An age old Purestrain Genestealer - still metal!
A new Aberrant from the Overkill box and an old metal Hybrid. I was really curious if these models work together, IMO yes!

More on my site: http://www.adpublishing.de/html/kill_team.html

Very nice models. I always like to see rogue trader stuff. Some great individuality to be seen there. The indian look seems great to me, but indeed a bit out of place for a rogue trader band.

I really like these models. They look perfect together too!

Those look amazing. ( all of them )

These are all amazing. Great work, I hope you post more soon.

Kill Team - Necrons

Another side project that might be finished one day. Basically I needed an excuse to order the excellent Wargame Exclusive female Necrocyborg kits.
I was not disappointed, as good as expected!
The left Necron is a Flayed One stand in made with Ad Mech Ruststalker parts since I always found the Flayed One minis incredible stupid (in a funny but not horrible way).

I started two new factions, the Gellerpox and the Navy Breachers.

Voidsmen-at-Arms, known informally as Voidsmen, are the armed infantry of Imperial Navy warships.

Heavily armed and armored, Breachers are the elite of the Voidsmen, who are sent on boarding attacks on enemy vessels. This includes first contact with Space Hulks, which they are ideally suited for. Breachers are trained to be blunt instruments by the Imperial Navy and are equipped with Shotguns, Bolt Pistols, Boarding Shields, Multi-Lasers, C.A.Ts and Gheistskulls.
First test mini, a simple out of the box Navy Armswoman. I used a Necromunda base and used colours similar to the game board.

Gellerpox Infected
Foul warbands afflicted by a gruesome techno-organic plague, the Gellerpox Infected are nightmarish meldings of festering flesh and malignant machinery. These hideous beings may once have been loyal servants of the God-Emperor, plying the void beneath the safety of a geller field – such days are long gone, wiped away by supernatural sickness and a gleeful compulsion to spread their infection across the stars.

Glitchlings are Daemons of Nurgle that are similar in size and appearance to Nurglings, except that they wear metal masks. They are known to fight beside any creature that has been infected by the Gellerpox plague.

I tried to copy the dark style of the great Ana Polanšćak, I even sprayed some of her trademark white dots on the base...

New take on my Necrons, the colour scheme is incredible fast to paint, I might stick with it!


The Necron Royal Warden, very nice model. I use Greenstuff World Antique Gold Chrome Metal on my new Necrons, IMO a very nice effect to create the liquid living metal look.



All together with some terrain, more pics on my site: https://adpublishing.de/html/kill_team.html

The Necron color are actually a nod to the old Therian colors.
See below a Therian, a Karman, a Red Blok Trooper and an UNA Steel Trooper.

Traitor Space Marine Kill Team - Sons of Horus and Death Guard
The Kill Team started as 3 Marines for Blackstone Fortress. I finally finished a full team by adding three more Sons of Horus.
I am planning to play some 30 K games using the current KT rules.

2 Marine Warriors, 1 Gunner (Plasma Gun, Mk III backpack and SoH Forge World resin Mk VI head), Heavy Gunner (counts as heavy Bolter, I only modified the backpack), Icon Barer (I used the really good Forge World Maloghurst the Twisted mini) and an Aspiring Champion to lead.
I really like the late heresy twisted chaos look that is IMO not totally over the top.

As the Sons of Horus team I am using 30k minis as stand ins using the current Kill Team rules. Funny thing is - I really DISlike the 40k Plague Marines, but like the 30k Death Guard. (Same with my Emperors Children.)

Grave Warden Terminator (as PM Heavy Gunner with Blight Launcher), Tactical Marine with Plasma Gun (as PM Gunner with Plasma Gun), Praetor (as PM Champion with Boltgun and Powerfist), Tactical Marine with Vexilla (as PM Icon Bearer) and finally a Deathshroud Terminator (as Fighter with Great Plague Cleaver and Bolt pistol).
Note the scale creep even in the Forge World Heresy minis, just compare the current Praetor and both Terminators!

Outstanding Legionnaires, great use of various kits & bits

Really good looking teams. I think the Indian guy can fit in fine in a rogue trader retinue. IMO, rogue traders shouldn't have a too uniformed look in their team.

Necron scheme is really cool, and quick to paint at the same time

Thanks folks

Absolutely fantastic looking minis, especially like the voidsman colours and the sons of horus

They look great.

The traitor kill teams look awesome.

Ultramarines Kill Team - Strike Force Justian
GW released the Kill Team in Q4 2023 in their Warhammer Heroes line. Like a trading card pack you by a mini pack (in certain countries) and can hope for the one you want... Not my sales model.

I was extremely lucky and had a full team when buying 10 packs and immediately selling the doubles. Anyway - the minis are really nice and the Team is also solid to play. I painted 6 of them, the 7th mini is an alternate sergeant who competes with the captain for the KT leader spot.

Very nice looking team once again

Fantastic Smurfs!
