The Kill Team Core Manual is a 32-page softback book for the first edition of Kill Team, featuring full rules for playing skirmish missions with Warhammer 40,000 miniatures.[1]

It was sold with Kill Team: The Boxed Set.[1]

Official description

No strength in numbers. No margin for error. Pure, fast-paced combat where tactics matter more than brute strength, and every action matters. A single shot can spell the difference between life and death, and a single decision can decide whether a battle ends in glorious victory or dismal defeat: this is Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team.[1]

A whole new way to play games with your Warhammer 40,000 miniatures, this standalone two-player game puts you in charge of small bands of warriors, and gives you one objective – win, or die.[1]
