I like the look of the undead lord on the throne. I'd be tempted to turn it into a palanquin though.

Oh yes a great model, I'm thinking of putting it on a scenic unit base together with some of these reapers

Hmmm $220 for Killteam. No thanks. Oops $250 NZ

Australian dollars, that is. Same price as the AoS and 40k starters - less minis, but quite a hefty chunk of scenery from the looks of things.

That shakes out to £120, although there does always seem to be a lump added to Australian prices, so perhaps it'll be cheaper in the UK. Although, you do need to have the 40K ruleset to play the game as well, which might raise eyebrows when you're paying over £100 for a board game.

Yeah! Kill Team Starter Set pre-ordered, £63.80 inc. UK delivery. Been wanting this since missing out on the Shadow War starter set. :-)

. Actually I put the wrong price for my region (NZ) $250. So 100% markup.

Nope. This is a stand alone game so you don't need the regular 40k rulebook or any codexes. Full rules are included as well as Faction rules and Faction tactics, though not all as cards.

Oh, I thought I'd read on Boardgame Geek that you needed the core rules? If that's £60+ then for the full set that's a lot more reasonable. Not cheap, but certainly reasonable compared to similar board games.

preordered a set here in Germany it is 106 Euros

Kill Team looks like it could be a game my son would happily play with me, but I'll just be getting the core rules. 

I've got plenty of toys - Marines and Tyranids already painted and ready to go, Orks needing painted.   I also have loads of scenery already and I can make the cards myself. 

Also considering the First Strike  boxed set which would give me a Death Guard team and loads of Primaris options for the Marines. 

Looks like it should be a lot of fun for a relatively low investment.

This exactly. A great way to taste something new and not having to dig out every last penny from under the couch. Will order Kill Team and if I like it, will - of course - get me some more teams.

Just checked at Wayland Games and Warhammer 40K: Killzone is €79.18 including shipping to Belgium, not too bad!

[Ninefingers]

Kill Team is the first GW game that I've bought into since they brought out that LOTR starter set with the plastic Fellowship figures. I've even bought the Deathwatch Kill Team set, fair play to them.

[beefcake]

A deathwatch kill team. My boy would be into that. He's playing Spacehulk Deathwing on the PC at the moment and loving it.

You can get the core rules separately, instead of buying the whole starter box.
