Key Features The mightiest Warboss around – a great HQ choice for your Snakebite Beast Snagga Boyz A fusion of Ork, machine, and squigosaur ready to inflict carnage on enemy lines Can alternatively be built as a Beastboss on Squigosaur There are few Orks alive who are tougher or more belligerent than Mozrog Skragbad. A beast hunter of infamy, Mozrog once spent many days in self-imposed exile, hunting the most dangerous beasts he could find. One such monster nearly got the better of him, eating him alive, but Mozrog is nothing if not pugnacious – clawing his way out, he returned to his tribe to be patched up with all manner of bionic bits. In battle, he rides the unmissable pale-skinned squigosaur, Big Chompa – the only living creature as cantankerous as Mozrog himself. Should your Waaagh! need a Warboss as powerful as a living deff rokkit, Mozrog and his mount Big Chompa are the perfect pair to add to your army. Between Mozrog’s bionics and Big Chompa’s unstoppable jaws, no foe can escape unharmed. Years of arduous hunting and a stubborn attitude have also rendered Mozrog nearly impervious to damage, shrugging off wounds that would lay low even most savage Beast Snagga Orks. _____ There are few loftier achievements for a Beast Snagga Ork than the taming of a squigosaur. These bad-tempered creatures eat everything they come across and are nearly impervious to gunfire. Instead, Beastbosses must beat them to within an inch of their lives to earn the right to ride them. The result of this scrappy housebreaking is an uneasy respect between both squigosaur and Ork, which proves invaluable in battle.   Beastbosses steer their squigosaurs into combat, weaponising their mounts' endless appetites and powerful legs to ensure they are the first Orks to reach enemy lines. Arriving with a cataclysmic crash, Beastbosses make short work of vanguard forces before setting their sights on larger prey. The Beastboss and squigosaur work in tandem in combat, seemingly impervious to enemy fire as they hack and chomp their way to victory. _____ This multipart plastic kit is comprised of 43 components with which you can build the Beast Snagga Orks Character Mozrog Skragbad and his squigosaur, Big Chompa. Alternatively, this kit can be assembled as a Beastboss on Squigosaur. It comes supplied with one 80mm Citadel Round base. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel paints.

From atop the wurrtower at the back of the rig, a Wurrboy can survey the battlefield, firing out powerful bolts of psychic energy at Ork and enemy alike.

This combination of transport and weapons platform is the perfect addition to an Ork Waaagh! Able to carry a mob of Beast Snagga Boyz and equipped with an ’eavy lobba, stikka kannon, and saw blades, the Hunta Rig is a powerful war machine even before consider its troop capacity. _____ This multipart plastic kit comprises of 111 pieces, allowing you to build one Hunta Rig and one Wurrboy.

Key Features Brutal cavalry riding living juggernauts - pulverise armour and infantry with ease Five miniatures representing two Fast Attack choices in your Orks army Customise your Nob on Smasha Squig with a variety of options Bipedal wrecking balls that charge ahead of the Ork lines, Smasha Squigs live in a state of near permanent concussion thanks to their tendency to headbutt everything. Only the surliest and most aggressive Orks can wrangle them towards enemy lines, but the resulting impact of a charging unit of Squighog Boyz is worth it as they crumple metal, flesh, and bone alike. If their impressive charges weren't enough, units of Squighog Boyz also hurl explosive, rokkit-propelled stikkas at their enemies, softening up any tough armour in the process. Behind each boy clings an unfortunate saddlegit, who pelts foes with anything it can get its grubby mitts on – while praying to Gork that they don't end up being flung off and trampled in the process. Packs of Squighog Boyz are often accompanied by Bombsquigs – living weapons that demonstrate an alarming lack of self-preservation as they careen into the thick of combat before detonating with killer intent.

Key Features Blast your enemies to pieces with this Ork Heavy Support choice Transport other units across the battlefield Can alternatively build a Bonebreaka or Battlewagon Gunwagons exchange some of their transport capacity for a plethora of extremely large guns. Their spotters excel in directing hails of spirited if inaccurate artillery fire down upon the foe. If it all goes wrong, at least the explosion from their capacious magazines is bound to take a few of the enemy with it. Blast your enemies with a choice of deadly ranged weaponry from the safety of your Gunwagon. You can also transport your Boyz across the battlefield and choose from a wide range of additional weapon options.______ No two Battlewagons are the same, for the Meks that build them can never resist cobbling on armour plates, ramming spikes, assorted dakka, and random gubbinz. However, all are rugged transport tanks with the capacity to bear a vast number of angry Orks into battle while shrugging off the worst the enemy can throw at them. Get your Boyz into battle in style with a Battlewagon, the last word in mobile fortresses for any discerning Warboss. As well as being an amazing transport choice, you can also take loads of weapons options so that you can shoot, smash, and crush your enemies as you get your Boyz to exactly where they need to be.______ Subtle as a kick in the guts, the Bonebreaka is an assault carrier and linebreaker without equal. Foes not crushed by its rumbling deff rolla or mangled beneath its tracks soon succumb to the tank’s arsenal of dakka and the mob of riled up Orks doubtless riding the hulking metal monster into battle. Crush your enemies beneath the mighty deff rolla. The Bonebreaka also features a transport compartment so that you can get your Boyz across the battlefield. Plus, add loads of weapon options to take care of anyone who might try and escape their doom beneath this hulking behemoth.______ This 135-piece plastic kit makes one Bonebreaka. The kit includes options for a big shoota, kannon, killkannon, lobba, zzap gun, deff rolla, grabbin' klaw, and wreckin' ball and can alternatively be assembled as a Gunwagon or a Battlewagon.

Key Features A scrapped Ork Gargant head provides an excellent command post Garrison a warboss and boys behind the scrap metal armour of this Fortification Toast your enemies with the Gaze of Gork Ork warbosses are usually stationary for only two reasons. One is when they are giving an enemy – or an unlucky grot – a good hiding, and the other is when they are shouting at their Boyz to give the foe a good krumpin'. The Big'ed Bossbunka provides the perfect place to holler from given its bosspole, which is outfitted with a very loud PA system.  Constructed from the head of a repurposed Ork Gargant, the Big'ed Bossbunker gives your Warboss a way of directing the many rowdy Boyz under his command. If they misbehave, or if anyone attempts to unseat the Warboss, they will need to contend with a slew of shots from the Big'ed Bossbunker's big shoota and the Gaze of Gork – a weapon constructed from a jet engine that has been bashed into one of the Gargant's eyes. This multi-part plastic kit is comprised of 27 components, and can be assembled into one Big'ed Bossbunker. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel paints.

These kill teams, as they are known, are picked from the most capable and independent of their kind, using strange and esoteric skills to achieve what a mighty army could not. The new edition of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team has been redesigned from the ground up as the greatest tabletop skirmish experience yet, seeing teams of experienced operatives engage in vicious close-quarters combat as they race to complete their missions. In this book you'll find the complete rules for playing Kill Team as well as a host of missions to embark on, lore covering the grim darkness of the 41st Millennium, and insight on the factions vying for dominance among the shadows.   The Book This 144-page book is the ultimate companion for kill team commanders, containing all the knowledge you need to collect, build, paint, and play in the world of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team. Ten Thousand Years of War The book opens with a summary of the 41st Millennium’s history, including details on the Imperium’s massive military might and the forces they encounter in their ceaseless wars across the galaxy. It also introduces kill teams, the squads players command in the course of the game, and details their continued deployment across myriad war zones throughout the galaxy.   Core Rules The first rules section contains the core concepts you need to start fighting battles in Kill Team, including the tools required, phases of play, and operative datasheets.   Killzones Here you'll find rules and guidance on how terrain interacts with your games, including example board arrangements, as well as rules governing movement around, over, and through your scenery.   Ways to Play Once you've got the basics squared away, find out all about the three core ways to play the game and the missions you can undertake.   Open Play A free-form style of play suitable for those new to Kill Team, and a perfect place to practice in a relaxed mission environment.

Tac Ops are hidden from your opponent, so commanders can decide on their strategy ahead of time while watching out for their foe’s actions on the battlefield.   Appendix The book closes out with a handy reference section packed with special rules and abilities, as well as an overview of the different tokens, counters, and accessories used in games of Kill Team.
