Kill Team: Dolorous Strain

Kill Team is a fantastic standalone game from Games Workshop, set within the Warhammer 40,000 Universe. Kill Team is a fast paced, action packed tabletop game that puts two deadly kill teams against one another in a ferocious battle to the death. Games can be as swift as a 40-minute skirmish or can be extended into a full-scale campaign. Every game you play develops your squad, improving their abilities and expanding their skill trees, even lowliest trooper can grow in power, skill and experience to evolve into a battle-hardened warrior.

The Kill Team rules can be compared to those from Warhammer 40,000 as both are geared towards fighting in the 41st Millennium, both deal with a lot of the same core systems and general principles. Warhammer 40,000 is on a larger scale than Kill Team and concentrates on the grand plans, sweeping manoeuvres and the clash of massive armies, whereas Kill Team is all about moment-to-moment action.

The Death Guard are the chosen instruments of Nurgle, Chaos God of despair and decay, and one of the nine Traitor Legions that betrayed the Emperor during the Horus Heresy. Formerly known as the Dusk Raiders, the XIV Legion were rechristened the Death Guard when they were united with their Primarch Mortarion during the Great Crusade. They take great pride in their resistance to poisons, disease, and mortality in general. Even prior to their fall into treachery the Death Guard were famous for their resilience and attrition warfare tactics. This resilience was further augmented by the touch of Nurgle that frees them from the burden of pain, their nerve endings long since rotted away.
