Filling the gap left by the Necromunda rule set, it involves "Kill Teams" of three to ten figures fighting over resources.
Based on a recent boxed game and its expansions, and using a tweaked version of 40K version 2, it appears to have been a lot more popular than Games Workshop thought, the box set sold out on pre-order.
So having had a look at the squad building rules, I assembled a Cadian Imperial Guard kill team.
You have 1000 points to build your team, so mine breakdown as the following:
- Veteran Sergeant: Flak Armour; Las Pistol; Chain sword; Frag grenades.
- 4 x Veteran Guardsmen: Flak Armour; Lasgun; Frag grenades
- 2 x Guardsman: Flak Armour; Lasgun
- Grenadier: Flak Armour; Grenade Launcher with Frag and Krak grenades
