Warhammer 40k/Kill Team - Teaser (?) Analysis from the Warhammer+ Video

Image
A few days ago, an article was published on Warhammer Community to promote the subscription to Warhammer+.

Of course, one might be more or less interested in the type of content offered by the subscription, and this article is not intended to promote the platform (even though I am a subscriber - Ed.).

Finally, the day for the cinematic trailer of the next edition of Kill Team has arrived! Link to Article: Just What is Operation Hivestorm? Find Out in This Thrilling New Cinematic Trailer After watching it at least a dozen times, I think I'm ready to do a brief analysis of what we've seen. Of course, some of these are just speculations in anticipation of the of ficial review scheduled for tomorrow ! TEMPESTUS SCIONS The basic equipment expected for the Tempestus is definitely the Hot-shot Lasgun , but we managed to catch a glimpse of a few specialists: The leader seems to be equipped with a Hot-shot laspistol and Power Sword (but will probably also have the option to be armed with a Plasma Pistol and Chainsword). There will be an operative armed with two Hot-shot laspistols . We have a sniper with the Hot-shot marksman rifle .
