The missions below allow you to play games of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team with three or four players. In them, players will share the same mission rules and mission objectives. The scoring parameters of the mission objectives vary across the mission pack, so having an expansive roster will allow you to select the right operatives for the mission at hand. They have been designed so that tactical play is rewarded, therefore they are suited to matched play, but can be used with any of the three ways to play. These missions use the Multiplayer mission rule, described below. To randomly determine a Critical Operations: Multiplayer mission, one player rolls one D3 and consults table 1 if you are playing with three players, or table 2 if you are playing with four players.

Player Order

Some rules specify player order, which will establish players as first, second, third etc. To establish player order, all players roll one D6. The player with the highest result is first, the player with the second highest result is second, and so on. If two or more players have a tied result, those players keep rolling until an order is established between them.

Killzone

Multiplayer battles use two Kill Team gameboards combined along the long edge, creating a 30" by 44" area. When determining which killzone is in use, players should use one killzone for each gameboard, ensuring the terrain is suitably placed across both gameboards.

Drop Zones and Set Up

In the Select Drop Zone step, establish player order. The first player selects one of the drop zones first, followed by the second player, and so on. In the Set Up Operatives step, that same first player sets up first, followed by that second player, and so on.

Tac Ops and Victory Points

Tac Ops are designed for two players playing on a 30" by 22" area, therefore we do not recommend their use in Multiplayer battles. Instead, each player can score a maximum of 18 victory points from the mission objective (instead of 12).

Designer’s Note: If all players agree, they can use Tac Ops with their own adjustments to the Multiplayer rules, perhaps by restricting certain Tac Ops (e.g. removing those that do not function in Multiplayer battles).

Scouting and Initiative

Players do not complete the Scouting step.

Initiative for the first Turning Point is the player order from the Select Drop Zones step: the first player has the initiative, and activations for the Turning Point are then completed in player order. For example, the first player would activate first, followed by the second player, and so on. In subsequent Turning Points, determine player order again. If a player has a rule that would allow them to re-roll or modify the dice when determining initiative, they can use this rule when rolling one D6 to determine player order in the Initiative phase.
