Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team – Hivestorm is a skirmish starter set for the 2024 edition of Kill Team. Two asymmetric teams—the elite Tempestus Aquilons and alien Vespid Stingwings—fight objective-driven missions across a double-sided board and modular Volkus terrain. Alternating activations, action points, measured movement, cover, line of sight, and dice resolution make every operative’s position matter. The box combines twenty-two miniatures, core rules, the Hivestorm dossier, equipment, tokens, dice, and Approved Operations materials for complete games.
