The apparently desolate world of Somneft hides a dormant threat – a tomb of the Necrons that the alien-hunting Deathwatch have vowed to crush before it can surface. Kill teams of specialist battle-brothers force their way inside, seeking to establish the true scale of the threat the tomb poses without triggering a catastrophic awakening that could be the death of worlds. Yet the structure is not wholly dormant. An eccentric Cryptek, active for millennia and aided by her retinue of unthinking thralls, has manipulated the tomb’s strata to her own ends. Twisted with psychosis, she eagerly hunts the invading Deathwatch in turn, seeing in them a novel source of experimentation.
This explosive expansion for Kill Team pits two crack teams of operatives against each other in an ancient, crumbling Necron crypt. Inside the box you'll find two full squads of elite xenos-hunting Deathwatch Space Marines – specialists employed by the Inquisition to hunt down alien threats. A bizarre, insect-like Cryptek is also included, along with her host of constructs turned from their purpose of maintaining the slumbering apparatus of the Necrons. You'll find a killzone of Necron terrain, the rules you need to play games within its claustrophobic corridors, and a set of tokens and cards to help keep track of everything.
In addition to all that, the box includes a set of Necron Warriors, Scarabs, and mission packs that pit you against the awakening tomb world. Play solo, with a team-mate, or against another team while non-player operatives threaten you both.
This boxed set contains:
– 80-page softcover Kill Team: Tomb World Dossier: Background, artwork, and rules for the kill teams included in the box, plus an overview of the planet Somneft and the Necron tomb complex. Two new mission packs are also included – one for solo or cooperative play, and another to add Necron non-player operatives for both teams to contend with.
– Deathwatch Kill Team: The Space Marines of the Deathwatch combine extensive knowledge of xenos threats with advanced weaponry to combat the denizens of the Necron tomb complex. 10x multipart plastic miniatures, enough to build two entire kill teams, including a variety of weapons and cosmetic options. You'll find all the bits you need to build specialists like the Watch Sergeant, Disruptor, Blademaster, and more.
– Canoptek Circle Kill Team: Led by a Cryptek Geomancer, this collection of constructs has been altered by a violent set of protocols to repel the invading Space Marines. In addition to the Geomancer, this set builds 2x Tomb Crawlers, and 5x Macrocyte Warriors – one of which can alternatively be built as an Accelerator and another as a Reanimator. You'll also find a variety of weapon options for the operatives.
– Necron Warriors and Canoptek Scarab Swarm: This set of multipart plastic miniatures builds 10x Necron Warriors, and 3x Canoptek Scarab Swarms, to use as non-player operatives in solo play and cooperative games.
– Killzone: Tomb World: A double-sided folding game board, along with a set of 25x modular Tomb World terrain pieces consisting of pillars and walls, plus special pieces like a Necron sarcophagus and teleport pads.
– Deathwatch Datacards: 37x datacards covering operatives, faction rules, ploys, faction equipment, universal equipment, and more.
– Canoptek Circle Datacards: 32x datacards covering operatives, faction rules, ploys, faction equipment, universal equipment, and more.
– Tomb World Card Pack: Includes 12x Tomb World event cards, and 4x non-player operative datacards.
– Combined Token Sheet: Easily track abilities, objectives, equipment, and points throughout your games with team-themed tokens. The sheet contains 67x double-sided cardboard tokens – 39x for the Deathwatch kill team, and 28x for the Canoptek Circle kill team.
This kit comprises 506 plastic components, 3x Citadel 50mm Round Bases, 2x Citadel 40mm Round Bases, 8x Citadel 32mm Round Bases, 5x Citadel 28.5mm Round Bases, 3x Citadel 40mm Round Hex Hole Bases, and 10x Citadel 32mm Round Hex Hole Bases.
