First up today I though I'd apologise for the lack of updates recently. I started a job 3 weeks ago and it's been all consuming - a bit like being fisted by the Incredible Hulk frankly - but slowly getting there.

This week sees the supposedly highly-anticipated release of Kill Team. We last saw Kill Team in 2017, so obviously it needed to come back urgently... happily though, we get some great new sets to go along with it! The Kill Team set itself is a bit of a monster with terrain, 20 miniatures and more. The minis are made from the coloured plastic, not the traditional multi-part grey plastic and questions have been raised about the detail on them - time will tell. Next week also sees the Killzone: Sector Mechanicus released, which seems like pretty good value too. Kill Zone also introduces some new additions to the Sector Imperialis series of terrain - the Sector Imperialis Basilicanum, Sector Imperialis Administratum, Sector Imperialis Sanctum and Sector Imperialis Ruins. There's also two Faction sets which include some terrain - Kill Team: Fangs of Ulfrich and Kill Team: Krogskull’s Boyz. Now both these sets are also on the coloured plastic, so be aware before you purchase that these are not the standard plastic sets currently available. A really cool little product is the Kill Team Carry Case, which is a soft case with foam padding that carries your minis around in "safety". Reckon we'd need to see this in person, but a great concept. If you're curious about the game but don't need the entire set, then you can just buy the rules in the Core Manual. Interestingly I had seen a hardcover doing the rounds, but it seems to have disappeared! There are also, of course, the Data Cards to go along with Kill Team too.
In terms of book releases this week - its the audio drama Hunger, with the Genestealers facing the speciesist suppression of those well known oppressors, the Flesh Tearers. Forced to wander the universe Genestealers are set adrift amongst the stars desperately looking for a home. When will these lonely travellers be given a chance to settle? May you soon find a home, friends!
