SPECIAL OPERATIONS: KILLZONE - ERRATA

Special Operations: Killzone is a set of fan-designed rules created with the intent of enabling players torun skirmish games within the Warhammer 40,000 Universe.

Killzone is intended as a supplemental way to play the game, which was inspired by the suggestive Kill

Teams game mechanism offered in the third and forth edition of Warhammer 40,000, and in the mostrecent Battle Missions supplement. Killzone hopes to explore and to refine those suggestions and makethem more generally playable. To use these rules, you must own and refer to your copy of theWarhammer 40,00rulebook and the relevant Codices.

USING THIS BOOKThis book is the companions guide to the core rules alterations found in the Special Operations: KillzoneRulebook. This book is intended to be a living document that outlines and adapts the varied Warhammer40,000 codices for play in a Killzone dynamic. This book cannot be used without a copy of the appropriatecodex from which you wish to build your Special Operations Group.

In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war and that war has many faces: epic battalionswage endless conflict throughout entire star systems; mighty Titans stride the continents of virus-

ravaged worlds; grand heroes set themselves on a stage no smaller than the galaxy itself.

But there are times when the Universe turns on a much smaller stage.

The blade in the dark the forlorn last stand of a motivated, desperate few the efficient, brutalbusiness behind the closed doors of a darkened Strategium the hushed footfalls of a stealth team as

stifled, fleeting protests mark the only trace of its presence

To be a man in such times is to be one amongst uncounted billions, but there are moments when thequiet actions of just one man can recalibrate the entire merciless Universe.

This is the story of those deeds.

Building a ListBoth players build a Special Operations Groupusing this book in conjunction with the Codex forhis/her army of choice. A Special Operation Groupgenerally contains one or two Teams. Again, we

leave the decision regarding the number of Teamsup the players on the day.

Team Structure: Each Team has a 175-250points limit and can contain anywhere between 5to 20 models in total. Teams purchase individualmodels from the Elite, Troops, Fast Attack, andHeavy Support unit selections in their codex. Alittle basic mathematical skill will be required tofigure out some individual points costs

For example, the cost of a tactical marinesergeant can be determined by subtracting thecost of the 4 standard marines (16 points each x 4

= 64) from the squads base cost (90). So the costfor the Marine Sergeant is 26 points (90 64 =26).

You may only take one squad leader upgrade foreach unit choice taken and only after you takeone member from the squad entry. You may nottake a second squad leader choice for a unit typemore than once.

So, for example, if you take one tactical and oneassault marine, you could then take an assaultsergeant and a tactical sergeant. Once these arechosen, you may take no further tactical or

assault sergeants in your Team.

A team may contain no more than two modelswith:

-2+ armor saves.-3 wounds.-3+ invulnerable saves.-Jump Infantry designation.-Bike, Jetbike, or Cavalry

designation.

Team Leader: Pick one model from your team tobe the Team Leader, preferably the model withthe highest Ld value. The Team Leader may not

be equipped with a heavy weapon. All modelswithin 6 inches may test on his Ld. This modelgains +1 Wound if he only has one in his basestatistic; if the model has more than one Woundalready, he gains +1 Attack instead.

Unique Models: Models listed as Unique in theirunit composition may not be used.

Special Weapons: A Team may contain no morethan 5 special ranged weapons upgrades; only 2may be a Heavy type weapons upgrade. Specialranged weapons upgrades are those that canonly be taken in a limited number. Rangedweapons upgrades that all models in a squadmay take do not count toward this limit.

For example, marine scouts can upgrade everymodel to carry a sniper rifle or shotgun; theseupgrades are not limited by this rule. Pistolupgrades do not fall under these restrictions.

3 Wound Models: No model may have morethan 3 wounds in Killzone.

Toughness Cap: No model may have a baseToughness statistic greater than 5.

Vehicles: No vehicles are allowed with theexception of a single Walker per Team, and only ifit has an armor rating of 33 or less. Armor rating isdetermined by adding the 3 armor values (FA/SA/RA) for your vehicle together.

ThemesA few of the preceding restrictions can be lifted bypurchasing the appropriate theme upgrade listedbelow. A team may only select one theme.

Armored Might: This theme allows you to takeas many models with 2+ Armor saves in your

team as you desire. You may select this theme for10 points, and are required to spend at least 75%of your points on themed models.

Death From Above: This theme allows you totake as many Jump Infantry models in your teamas you desire. You may select this theme for 10points, and are required to spend at least 75% ofyour points on themed models.

Swift As The Wind: This theme allows you totake as many models that are Bikes, Jetbikes, orCavalry/Beasts in your team as you desire. Youmay select this theme for 10 points, and are

required to spend at least 75% of your points onthemed models.

Behemoths: This theme allows you to take asmany models that have 3 wounds in your team asyou desire. You may select this theme for 15points, and are required to spend at least 50% ofyour points on themed models.
