At approximately 1400 the 22nd Aquilon Squad of 3rd Regiment used their grav chutes to drop from sub level 14 to sub level 43 to attempt to intercept data scrapers attached to comm lines on sub level 44. During their approach their auspex showed movement from the Fraterinty of the Celestial Emperor, aka the Brotherhood, towards the data caches.

The 22nd engaged the Brotherhood on level 44, and were subsequently forced back with high casualities despite a vigorous defense. Only 2 data scrapers were retrieved by the survivors.

Tinqiu and I got together for another round of Kill Team! This time my deadly Brood Brothers versus the elite Aquilons.

The crit op was Loot and the board was a near assymetrical Galowdark.

The Brood brothers spilt into two forces, one on each flank.

The Aquilons chose to drop in as needed.

On the right small room the Aquilons moved up in force.

In the centre hallway, the Aquilons start to drop in cover.

In the large left room the plasma gunner goes on guard in cover, blasting an Aquilon that dropped from a vent in the corner of the room trying to get the drop on the Brood Commander.

The Primus leads his squad on the charge into the small right room. And by leads I mean from the rear.

In the centre hallway the Aquilons prepare to open the doors and unleash firepower into the Brood.

The small right room is going to be a blood bath.

The grenadier drops in with his melta bomb with designs to whip it at some Brood in the big left room.

At the back of the hallway the sniper in all black gives cover fire.

Turning point two, preparing the rush!

The Vox operator carefully looks over his squad.

The Grenadier opens the hatch and whips the meltabomb at the Brood commander who dies in a conflagaration. 

The Brood sapper runs into the small room and whips his demo charge at the Aquilons, killing one and wounding the duelist.

The duelist is finished off by the melta gunner.

In the centre the familiar skulks...

... before charging and tying up the sentry gun.

The plasma gunner and sniper fire into the centre hallway through the open hatch.

The Aquilon gunner with meltagun drops in and kills the Agitator who Shock maul the grenadier to death. 

In return, the sniper wounded the gunner.

In the small room, the Sergeant and trooper try to clear the enemy. The primus moved in and killed the Sergeant with his deadly needlegun.

At the start of turning point 3, the numers thin.

Jimmy the knife charges the trooper who fights him off, heals himself, and then kills the sapper. The Primus charges into the centre hallway and fights two troopers, killing them both.

The wounded plasma gunner fires into the hallway before succumbing to his wounds.

The Sniper runs into the centre hallway and no scope shoots the retreating trooper, killing him to secure the victory.

Final score, 15 to 14 as we both picked Kill Op as the secret primary.

Great Game!

Kill Team Day Oct 2025

 A bunch of us got together and played multiple games of Kill Team! Here are some pictures.

Battlefield from Classic Kill Team era.

Intercessor space marine team, aka the Death Bears.

Spooky Necron Hierotek Circle!

I got to face off against the Death Bears in my first game.

My Black Storm Legionnaires take up position to secure from objectives from the foul false emperor Death Bears!

The Bears came to crash the party.

On the west flank a bear makes an early move to be ready to secure a point in turn 2.

On the east flank, the Shrive Talon and Balefire Acolyte move to do the same but the Bears burst through the door, bolt pistols blazing.

Back on the west, the Chosen advances with super hot plasma pistol spewing super hot plasma.

The Annointed wasted no time and summoned the beast right away.

Two Bears move up to grab the middle in turn 2.

The gunner uses his super hot plasma to hunt a Bear that killed the Shrive Talon.

The heavy gunner uses his reaper chain cannon to skin a Bear.

The Chosen charged and used his daemonic blade to slice a Bear in two.

The Bear commander charged and leaped to reach his fist over the wall and crushed the skull of the Acolyte.

In the centre the annointed rips a Bear up but the other centre bear charged and killed the heavy gunner.

Despite being wounded from his fight with the heavy gunner, the Bear charged up the ladder and killed the gunner.

A bloody battle but the Death Bear's early success in securing more objectives pays off.

My Next game was my Blooded versus some Space Marine Scouts on a secure the long way board.

 

The scout sniper takes the high ground early and started to take aim at the enemy gunner and sniper.

The Blooded Ogryn and Grenadier move up in cover.

A scout moved up on the west point and early in turn two the Orgyn charge, his Avalanche of Muscle and power maul taking down the imperial stooge. The Agitator moved up behind him to secure the point, while the Flenser charged and fought another scout, slicing him with a blade.

The Enforcer and Butcher await their opening.

The scout sniper takes aim at the back of the Ogryn's head.

The Blooded Trench Sweeper survives a barrage from the heavy bolter!

It looked like scouts would retake the west point when BOOOOM! The grenadier whipped the diabolik bomb satchel and killed two of the enemy. 

In the centre structure the Chieftan and melta gunner take out scouts to secure the building.

The sniper and heavy bolder desperately try to take out targets fast enough, but there is just too many Blooded!

The almost dead Enforcer and terrified grenadier hunker in cover as they wait out the clock to win the game.

Victory for Quintara!!

Miscellanous shots.
