The Deathwatch are tasked with stopping an ancient Necron tomb from rising, and things get seriously intense.
Alongside the miniatures, there’s terrain, missions, and lore that any tabletop veteran will appreciate. From classic Aeldari to Sisters Novitiate, the lineup of new releases and made-to-order miniatures has something for every army and hobbyist.
Kill Team: Tomb World – Enter the Emerald Nightmare
The newest Kill Team expansion plunges players into the tombs of Somneft in the Nephilim Sector. The Deathwatch, elite specialists pulled from multiple Chapters, are sent to prevent a Necron uprising. The narrative sets up a tense cat-and-mouse scenario: a Cryptek awakens early and starts hunting the Space Marines. As someone who loves tactical missions, this mix of lore and action is exactly why Kill Team stands out.
The box includes two full Kill Teams with enough miniatures to field both sides, including heavily detailed operatives sporting unique Chapter shoulderpads. On the Necron side, the Canoptek Circle is ready to stalk your squad with Tomb Crawlers, an Accelerator, a Reanimator, and three warriors led by a geomancer.
The level of detail in the sculpts is fantastic, and the set also contains 10 Necron Warriors and three Scarab Swarms, along with 25 terrain pieces and a matching board. The included 80-page Tomb World Dossier delivers background lore, Killzone maps, Joint Ops missions, and Adversary Ops missions—perfect for solo or two-player campaigns. Tokens, datacards, and event cards round out the box, giving you everything you need for deep, replayable sessions.
Battleclade and Raveners – Tech and Terror
For fans of Adeptus Mechanicus, the Battleclade release brings Tech-Priests and Servitors into the fold. You can customize Servitors into gun platforms, combat units, or medics, all controlled by a Servitor Underseer. The included datacards provide faction rules, equipment, and operative profiles.
Meanwhile, the Raveners bring fast, tunneling biomorphs into Kill Team. With hit-and-run tactics, the Raveners are excellent for ambushes.
Five miniatures allow building a Ravener Prime plus specialized types like the Wrecker or Venomspitter, and their datacards give you everything you need for competitive or narrative play.
Killzone Upgrade: Tyranid Infestation and Sisters Novitiate
For terrain enthusiasts, the Tyranid Infestation upgrade adds 15 scatter pieces, including gestation sacs, spore vents, and brood nests. It’s a flexible addition to both Kill Team and Warhammer 40,000, and the rules are free to download.
On the infantry front, the Sisters Novitiate squad lets players field rookie Adepta Sororitas in both melee and ranged roles. Surviving these early missions is a rite of passage before promotion to Battle Sisters.
Final Thoughts – A Week Worth the Battle
Overall, this week’s Warhammer releases are a mix of tactical innovation, classic nostalgia, and immersive storytelling. Tomb World stands out as a must-have expansion, blending intense combat with rich lore. The new and returning miniatures provide options for both competitive players and collectors. Whether you’re diving into the Necron tombs, sneaking with Raveners, or guiding Sisters Novitiate through their first missions, there’s something to excite every gamer. Prepare your paints, sharpen your dice, and get ready to plunge into the emerald nightmare.
