Having done my fair share of 14 guardsmen loaded with krak grenades to their teeth, this is a good change. Also fits the general paradigm of no doubling up on specialists, which many grenadiers effectively become.

Was a necessary crutch for team like regular guard though.

Something wicked this way comes...

Inquisition

That looks Inquisition-esque from the side to me.

The obvious faction to face in a Space Hulk themed scenario would be Genestealers, but god, I really hope we wouldn't be a situation where the terrible Genestealer sprue just gets a crappy upgrade sprue instead of getting replaced entirely.

Unless we get eight older style backs to replace the hive fleet carapaces on it. I could probably live with that.

Sooo printed corridor board and a sprue of doors you say?

And probably this is exactly what we will get after a mighty 1 model release for the Tyranid codex, and that is assuming we will get anything new for nids at all.

2D Kill team with Inquisition sounds very promising if that indeed is what is coming.

That said, we have had our hopes raised many times we will get a proper Inquisition release and never have since 3rd edition.

Lictor and new genestealers vs say tartarus terminators with specialist sprue?

Printed doors and a sprue of corridors, let's mix it up

The C.A.T.'s base matches the style of the leaked Kasrkin, so maybe Kasrkin in space against Genestealers?

Given that the description of the Cyber-altered Task Unit mentions "quartermasters," I'm more inclined to think it's going to be some flavor of Astra Militarum.

At a guess? We'll be looking at a box that features Tempestus Scions or Kasrkins going up against Tyranids (my money's on Genestealers), with the terrain along the lines of the Necromunda Zone Mortalis Columns and Walls set and a cardboard gaming mat.

Actually, the more I look at it the more I think that's an Ecclesiarchy logo rather than an Inquisition one.

Rogue Trader Warband vs Gellerpox Infected?

A completely new Genestealer kit would be nice though.

Yes, that's Ecclesiarchy. Which is kind of odd because as stahly said the base matches the new Kasrkin and I can't think of a good reason why the Imperial Guard should draw their reconnaissance equipment from the Ecclesiarchy instead of the Mechanicus.

My money would be on the Scions or Kasrkins with Tyranids.

And though I'd dearly love some beautiful plastics for corridors and Space Hulk-like small rooms, I just don't see that happening.

Pre-printed game board with doors and?

Gotta say, I like the C.A.T from the 2009/2014 Space Hulk game way better than I like this one...

I like both. This one looks like a little surveyors instrument on tracks. And they are the closest things to hobby projects for tech priests, so it makes sense that they vary in design.

Its certainly possible.

I'd be over the moon if its a Lictor / Deathleaper kit.

Seems like the Karskin bases are painted the same as the CAT so they are pretty much guaranteed to be one side

Kasrkin upgrade sprue has a plastic Ministorum Preacher on it? Would let them dump the metal one.

Perhaps the Karskins are a dual kit with Stormtroopers or such?

Would be odd, but possible I guess. The thing that bothers me with this idea is that even though Guard has Preachers, it also has Enginseers, so again the question is why would they let the Emperor cultists handle the techy stuff instead of the Omnissiah cultists?

I could see an upgrade sprue containing preacher-like upgrade bits for a Kasrkin because someone decided that they train their own military chaplains now or something. But again why wouldn't they want a tech guy for that instead?

I'm probably overthinking this. Sisters send teenagers on covert ops and they are all cosplayers. I'm probably putting more thought into this than GW...

the scenery is new, the door looks like the necromunda one, but the rest of the walls are not.

The robot symbol looks like adeptus ministorum. Perhaps a priest or similar accompanied by karskins and a retinue?

I would also say that the perfect enemy would be some new genestealers..

But in the cadia vs tyranids image (with the new karskin) the genestealers were the same

I would love an expanded team of armsmen, to go with the previous Rogue Trader expansion.

The last edition of Kill Team could use Blackstone Fortress for indoor mayhem, with rules printed in White Dwarf which. Likewise, it would be interesting to see a similar cross over with Space Hulk.

I hope its kasarkin vs necron pariahs and that unclaimed preview of a necron weapon is finally revealed.

I'm not reading a whole lot into the Ecclesiarchal logo, outside of the CAT being "blessed" for whatever operation it's being used in.

ACTUALLY!

Are there any known "super pious" regiments right now? I can't think of one off the top of my head. I could see the CAT potentially being from a regiment that's sided more with the "human" side of the Ecclesiarchy compared to the "machine" side of the AdMech.

So, close confines rules for KT21 confirmed

So we aren't expecting squats as the opponent here? Even though the first preview video for the squats was basically the same setup as the preview for this kill team set?
