Warhammer Community outlines the Aeldari Exodites, detailing why they left decadent craftworlds, how Maiden Worlds like Syph shape their disciplined culture, and how Dragon Knights and Dragon Masters ride drakesteeds to defend their remote worlds. The piece also explains Exodite world spirits, kinship with Biel-Tan and Saim-Hann, and notes that Kill Team: Exodite will pre-order with lore, while Exodites can be used in Warhammer 40,000 via the accompanying rules article.
Warhammer Community unveils Saturday pre-orders centered on Kill Team: Exodite, introducing Aeldari Dragon Master operatives with drakolithes plus Beast Snagga and Squighog Boyz for Joint Ops, along with 88 datacards, a transfer sheet and a dossier; the lineup is complemented by additional Warhammer 40,000 releases such as Combat Patrol Battlezone terrain, Spectre Squad, standalone Kill Team kits, and new Horus Heresy/Black Library titles.
The Aeldari Exodites are set to tear it up in Kill Team and will soon be fully usable in Warhammer 40,000. Their Dragon Knights ride agile drakesteed mounts and strike with laser lances dealing flat 3 damage, featuring an Agile Reach of 3 inches. The Exodite kill team is led by Clanblade and includes two independent characters—Stonesinger (Support) and Leystalker (Lone Operative)—each with abilities that slow or disrupt enemies. The Kill Team: Exodite box goes up for pre-order this weekend, and the rules and points will be added to the Warhammer 40,000 App and the Warhammer Community downloads page in the coming weeks.

Warhammer Community highlights this weekend’s Kill Team pre-orders for Terror on Devlan, including the Terror on Devlan boxed set with the Red Terror and Spectre Squad, plus the Nemesis Operatives expansion (Ambull and Archivist) and new operatives Celestian Insidiants and Murderwing. Datacards are also shown, along with TOMY licensed plushies, all available while stocks last.
Warhammer Community spotlights dozens of community-painted Red Terror models from Kill Team: Terror on Devlan, featuring a variety of color schemes and terrain-friendly bases; painters demonstrate the model can look striking beyond red, with dark tones and bright carapaces. The piece highlights contributors like Andy, Luki, Angelo, Chris, and others, and teases the Spectre Squad boxed set and upcoming pre-orders.
Kill Team introduces the Red Terror, a tank-sized Tyranid boss whose rules hinge on a special datacard that toggles between Hunt and Lurk states. When hunted it unleashes brutal attacks, but if wounded it can flip to Lurk, tunnel underground, and regenerate. Its influence is governed by a 13-card Activation Deck that determines which enemy activates each turn; exploiting the little NPOs (Termagants and a Ripper Swarm) can slow the boss by skipping activations. In many missions you won’t simply kill it; you’ll stall, distract, or retreat to complete objectives, with the Terror at Devlan campaign linking multiple scenarios (like On the Trail) into a branching Kill Team narrative playable by any team.
Mountainside Tabletop previews Kill Team: Terror on Devlan, a Joint Ops narrative box where the Spectre Squad battles the Tyranid Red Terror on the Imperial mining world Devlan. The set includes nine PvE missions that form a branching campaign, a 13-card activation deck for non-player-characters, and tools like Elite Fieldcraft, camo cloaks, and a Vox-Relay Beacon to shape play. The Red Terror is a relentless, regenerating threat backed by other Tyranids, with new rules and gear to explore, and pre-orders go live this Saturday as Mountainside Tabletop teases a deeper look later in the week.
Warhammer Community previews Terror on Devlan, a Kill Team expansion where Spectre Squad hunts the Red Terror on the Devlan world, stacking a full box of operatives, mission packs, tokens and datacards, plus new Nemesis Operatives that broaden solo, cooperative and head-to-head play. The release also teases additional content like Zoat and Ambull figures, new Celestian Insidiants and Murderwing units, free rules, and TOMY plushies, with pre-orders starting next week and Warhammer TV coverage continuing the hype.
Warhammer Community’s Kill Team balance dataslate buffs elite tools (two Seek & Destroy tac ops Dominate and Sweep & Clear) and boosts Battleclade with a more reliable Incantation of the Iron Soul, the Underseer’s Network Override usable twice per activation, and new Concealed Apparatus options, while reverting Hierotek Circle’s interaction; Scout Squad Heavy Gunners gain a free Heavy Weapon Bipod, and the Sergeant gains free firefight ploys via Tactical Vox-link. The update also nerfs or restricts top-tier play (Wolf Scouts’ Elemental Storm, Frosteye/Fangbearer, Frost Weapons, Runic Charms, Talismanic Trophies) and adds new Focused Markerlight for XV26 Stealth Battlesuits along with changes to the Neutraliser’s Multispectrum Sensor Package. Overall, the changes aim to curb oppressive elite strategies and open room for more diverse, balanced play across Kill Team.
AdeptiCon 2026 previews a Kill Team expansion where the elite Spectre Squad confronts the Red Terror Tyranid across nine linked Joint Ops missions, with a new Nemesis Operatives book adding flexible boss encounters and standalone Tyranid support figures to expand the game’s big-boss action.
