Fire Teams
Many of the kill teams presented in Kill Team: Compendium require you to select your kill team by selecting one or two fire teams. A fire team is a collection of operatives and their selection requirements for the associated kill team. If your kill team consists of two fire teams, you can select the same fire team more than once. Many fire teams have the option to select a LEADER operative. When selecting your kill team, you can only include one LEADER operative, and in matched play, you must include one LEADER operative. Finally, each fire team has one or more archetypes. In such circumstances, your kill team’s overall archetype(s) is the archetype(s) of its fire teams.
The BOY keyword is used in the following Greenskin datacards:
The LEADER keyword is used in the following Greenskin datacards:
The CLAN KOMMANDO keyword is used in the following Greenskin datacards:
Rng x
Range. Each time a friendly operative makes a shooting attack with this weapon, only operatives within x are a valid target, x is the distance after the weapon’s Rng, e.g. Rng . All other rules for selecting a valid target still apply.
Limited
This weapon can only be selected for use once per battle. If the weapon has a special rule that would allow it to make more than one shooting attack for an action (e.g. Blast), make each of those attacks as normal.
Visible
For an intended target to be Visible, the following must be true:- You can draw an imaginary, unobstructed straight line (known as a Visibility line) 1 mm wide from the head of the active operative’s miniature to any part of the miniature of the intended target (not its base).
In the rare instance that bases or parts of the active operative’s miniature prevent an intended target from being Visible to the active operative, such as when the active operative is directly below or above the intended target, treat those bases and parts as being invisible.
Some rare rules will require you to select a point that is Visible (e.g. a point on the killzone). In such circumstances, you must be able to draw an imaginary, unobstructed straight line 1mm wide from the head of the active operative’s miniature to the point you would select.
Blast x
Each time a friendly operative performs a Shoot action and selects this weapon (or, in the case of profiles, this weapon’s profile), after making the shooting attack against the target, make a shooting attack with this weapon (using the same profile) against each other operative Visible to and within X of the original target – each of them is a valid target and cannot be in Cover. X is the distance after the weapon’s Blast, e.g. Blast . An operative cannot make a shooting attack with this weapon by performing an Overwatch action.
- An operative performs a Shoot action, selects a ranged weapon with the Blast special rule, and selects operative A as the target.
- After making the shooting attack against operative A, it makes a shooting attack against operative B, determining if it is a valid target as if operative A was making the shooting attack.
- It cannot make a shooting attack against operative C, as when determining if it is a valid target in this manner, operative C is not Visible to operative A due to the terrain feature between them.
Indirect
Each time a friendly operative makes a shooting attack with this weapon, in the select valid target step of that shooting attack, enemy operatives are not in Cover.
Ceaseless
Each time a friendly operative fights in combat or makes a shooting attack with this weapon, in the Roll Attack Dice step of that combat or shooting attack, you can re-roll any or all of your attack dice results of 1.
Lethal x
Each time a friendly operative fights in combat or makes a shooting attack with this weapon, in the Roll Attack Dice step of that combat or shooting attack, your attack dice results of equal to or greater than x that are successful hits are critical hits, x is the number after the weapon’s Lethal, e.g. Lethal 5+.
Invulnerable Save x+
Each time a shooting attack is made against an operative, the defender can use its invulnerable save instead of its normal Save characteristic. An invulnerable save is used like a normal Save characteristic, except that it cannot be modified in any way, and is not affected by any APx special rules (meaning the defender would use their normal Defence characteristic). x of the invulnerable save is the dice roll required for the defence dice to be successful, e.g. 4+.
GET STUCK IN!1CP
Strategic Ploy
Until the end of the Turning Point, each time a friendly BOY operative performs a Fight action, in the Roll Attack Dice step of that combat, you can re-roll one of your attack dice.
The GREENSKIN keyword is used in the following Greenskin datacards:
The ORK keyword is used in the following Greenskin datacards:
The <CLAN> keyword is used in the following Greenskin datacards:
The BOY keyword is used in the following Greenskin datacards:
The FIGHTER keyword is used in the following Greenskin datacards:
APx
Armour Penetration. Each time a friendly operative makes a shooting attack with this weapon, subtract x from the Defence of the target for that shooting attack, x is the number after the weapon’s AP, e.g. AP1. If two different APx special rules would be in effect for a shooting attack, they are not cumulative - the attacker selects which one to use.
Splash x
Each time a friendly operative makes a shooting attack with this weapon, in the Roll Attack Dice step of that shooting attack, for each critical hit retained, inflict x mortal wounds on the target and each other operative Visible to and within of it. x is the number after the weapon’s Splash, e.g. Splash 1.
Torrent x
Each time a friendly operative performs a Shoot action or Overwatch action and selects this weapon, after making the shooting attack against the target, it can make a shooting attack with this weapon against each other valid target within x of the original target and each other, x is the distance after the weapon’s Torrent, e.g. Torrent .
- An operative performs a Shoot action, selects a ranged weapon with the Torrent special rule, and selects operative A as the target.
- After making the shooting attack against operative A, it makes a shooting attack against operative B and C, determining if they are a valid target as normal.
- It cannot make a shooting attack against operative D, as while that operative is within of operative A and C, it is not within of operative B.
Rending
Each time a friendly operative fights in combat or makes a shooting attack with this weapon, in the Roll Attack Dice step of that combat or shooting attack, if you retain any critical hits you can retain one normal hit as a critical hit.
Brutal
Each time a friendly operative fights in combat with this weapon, in the Resolve Successful Hits step of that combat, your opponent can only parry with critical hits.
BOSSPOLE+ [3EP]
BOSS NOB or KOMMANDO NOB operative only. Add 1 to the operative’s APL for the battle.The LEADER keyword is used in the following Greenskin datacards:
Fusillade
Each time a friendly operative performs a Shoot action and selects this weapon, after selecting a valid target, you can select any number of other valid targets within of the original target. Distribute your attack dice between the targets you have selected. Make a shooting attack with this weapon (using the same profile) against each of the targets you have selected using the attack dice you have distributed to each of them.
SKULK ABOUT1CP
Strategic Ploy
Until the end of the Turning Point, each time a shooting attack is made against a friendly CLAN KOMMANDO operative, in the Roll Defence Dice step of that shooting attack, before rolling defence dice, if it has a Conceal order, you can retain one as a successful normal save without rolling it.
The CLAN KOMMANDO keyword is used in the following Greenskin datacards:
CUTTIN’ NOZZLE [2EP]
BURNA BOY operative only. The operative is equipped with the following melee weapon for the battle:Name | A | BS/WS | D | |||
| Cuttin’ nozzle | 4 | 3+ | 3/5 | |||
Special Rules | ! | |||||
Lethal 5+ | - | |||||
Hot

KUSTOM FORCE FIELD+ [3EP]
SPANNER operative only. The operative gains the following ability for the battle:Kustom Force Field: Each time an operative makes a shooting attack, if the target is wholly within of this operative and the operative making the shooting attack is not, the target has a 5+ invulnerable save for that shooting attack.
