The new edition of Kill Team kicks off with the TERMINUS 3.0 tournament, presented by Rolling Zeros, on 2nd November 2024 at Arcanist’s Tavern in Shoreditch. This will be a 20-player singles event, using a mix of terrain sets from previous seasons. 

Rules Set

This event will be run using the most up-to-date rules set for Kill Team (“Third Edition”, “Kill Team 2024”, etc.).  As this is the first event in a new edition, we expect many of us will be learning and examining interactions along the way. All other rules for Kill Team, including balance data slates, errata, and FAQs will remain in effect.

Kill Team Selection

As further details for the new edition are released, this Event Pack will be updated. Only Kill Teams with rules updated for the new edition are eligible to play in this event. (At the time of creation that excludes teams appearing in the 2021 Kill Team: Compendium and Kill Team Justian). 

Terrain and Missions

We will use the Approved Operations 2024 Tac Ops and Missions. Map layouts are currently TBD. Each table will be preset with a specific map layout, and players will be assigned to tables randomly. All players will play the same mission each round as outlined in the event schedule below.

All participants will play in a three-round Swiss tournament to determine the outcome. Game rounds will be two hours each.

Painting Requirements

There are no painting requirements for this event. Given this, please note victory points for having a painted team will not be in effect for this tournament - as a result, players can score a maximum of 21 points each round.

Conversions and proxy miniatures are accepted and strongly encouraged as long as they can be matched to the appropriate entry on the roster. If your models vary greatly from the standard kit, please contact the Tournament Organizer in advance to confirm they are easily recognizable. 

Tools of War

Players must bring their Kill Team, equipment terrain (barricades), dice, measuring gauges, and order markers. Players are encouraged to bring physical models for universal equipment (ladders, mines, barbed wire) if possible, as availability may be limited at launch and we cannot ensure we are able to provide a set for each table at this time.
