• Genestealer Cults

    Wherever a Genestealer Cult exists, kill teams composed of disparate insurrectionists group together to sabotage and slaughter their foes. Genestealer Cults kill teams initiate their brutal insurrections armed with the tools supplied by their oppressors – the industrial gear with which they have been forced to toil for generations. Drills, saws, cutting lasers and demolition charges, along with basic firearms that are stolen or cobbled together, are put to violent use against their enemies. Those members of a kill team blessed with more advanced mutations fight with diamond-hard claws and fangs, gutting those who would oppose their cult’s uprising with savage frenzy.
