About the Kill Team Codex: Shadowvaults

In the hellish close confines of the space hulk Gallowdark, elite kill teams stalk each other through haunted corridors. Millenia ago, an Imperial Inquisitor and a regiment of loyal Cadian Kasrkin recovered an ancient xenos artefact, but their ship was lost in the warp and fused with the colossal floating mass of Gallowdark. Only a few years have passed for the Kasrkin survivors trapped within its time-bending mass, though thousands have gone by in the galaxy outside. Now, the Necron owners of that relic have awoken from eons of slumber – and Technomancer Hamanet the Relentless of the Tsarakura Dynasty will stop at nothing to reclaim his lost creation.

This is the paperback Kill Team supplement originally found in the Kill Team: Shadowvaults boxed set, now available on its own. Inside these 120 pages, you'll find full rules and background for both the elite Kasrkin and calculating Hierotek Circle kill teams, datacards (including fillable blanks to copy), Tac Ops and Ploys, equipment lists, and Spec Ops rules including Rare Equipment and Battle Honours.

Also contained within is a lore guide to the shadowy depths of the Gallowdark, Close Quarters rules for fighting in space hulks, full killzone rules for using the Gallowdark terrain set alongside Shadowvaults terrain pieces, and the Shadow Operations: Shadowvaults Mission Pack and Critical Operations: Gallowdark Mission Pack, which together offer 18 missions and stealthy Infiltration rules for use in your games of Kill Team, playable with any faction.

You'll need a copy of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team Core Book to make full use of this supplement.
