Kill Team: Brutal and Cunning introduces a thrilling new dynamic to the battles for Volkus, featuring the arrival of Ork Wrecka Crews and Ratling operatives, two highly distinct teams that bring their own brand of chaos and strategy to the skirmish.
Ork Wrecka Crews
These Orks have seized the opportunity created by the Imperial and T’au conflict to launch devastating raids on Hive Fassilius and Massif Ballistus. The Wrecka Crews are composed of massive, durable boyz clad in ‘eavy armour, ready to deliver explosive damage with their signature style of brutal combat. Known for their love of destruction, the Wrecka Crews get Tanked Up for combat, making them a deadly and hard-hitting force.
Ratling Operatives
On the other side, we have the Ratling operatives, a regiment of abhumans left behind by the Imperium due to their reputation for thievery and mischief. Though spurned by their Astra Militarum comrades, these Ratlings are undeniably skilled snipers, equipped with precision rifles and a variety of powerful kit, including the tankstopper rifle and the Bomber operative’s explosive weapons.
Accompanied by a loyal Battlemutt, the Ratlings are experts at repositioning themselves on the battlefield. They use their ability to Scarper, allowing them to stay agile and out of harm’s way while lining up devastating shots. Despite their frailty, their agility and unpredictability make them a difficult force to anticipate.
Terrain
Both teams come with extensive customization options. Ork fighters can be built with multiple configurations, including different weapons and specialist roles, while the Ratlings can be crafted as snipers or special operatives. Cosmetic options allow for personalizing each team further.
The expansion also features the Compound Siege terrain upgrade, which enhances the Killzone Volkus ruins with new breachable compound walls, bunkers, and firing ports. The terrain is integrated into new missions, focused on asymmetric siege warfare, where one team defends fortified positions while the other tears down walls to push into the compound.
Missions and Extras
New missions in the Brutal and Cunning Dossier make use of the new terrain options, introducing exciting scenarios with destructible elements that change the flow of battle. The expansion also includes datacards and a token sheet for both factions, allowing players to dive straight into these unique teams’ mechanics.
