Kill Team - Tempestus Aquilons

Kill Team – Tempestus Aquilons – 103-52

The Tempestus Aquilons are elite drop troops of the Astra Militarum, deployed for rapid, hazardous operations deep within enemy territory. With grav-chutes, hot-shot weapons, and strict military discipline, they land precisely where the battle is fiercest, ready to secure objectives and break open enemy positions from close quarters.

Elite drop troops for Kill Team

In Kill Team, Tempestus Aquilons are ideal for players who enjoy aggressive deployment, mobility, and specialized firepower. They feel like a professional airborne strike force: compact, well-equipped, and built to quickly apply pressure at crucial points in the killzone.

Their playstyle revolves around positioning, timing, and the clever use of different operatives. They are not as numerous as regular Guardsmen, but compensate with better equipment, clear specialist roles, and the ability to strike hard where the enemy is vulnerable.

Also deployable in Astra Militarum armies

In addition to Kill Team, the Tempestus Aquilons can also be used in Warhammer 40,000 as part of an Astra Militarum army. They fit perfectly with Scions, Cadian regiments, airborne themes, Valkyrie-style operations, and elite strike forces operating independently of the main line.

The set includes components for various specialists, such as a swift Gunfighter, explosive Grenadier, accurate Marksman, and tactical Precursor. The included servo-sentry can be equipped with a flamer, grenade launcher, or hot-shot volley gun, providing your kill team with additional supporting firepower.

Painting fun with carapace armour and airborne details

For painters, the Aquilons offer many crisp military details. Think carapace armour, grav-chutes, hot-shot lascarbines, cables, visors, ammo pouches, and specialist equipment. They work well in classic Tempestus colours, Cadian green, urban camouflage, black and grey special forces schemes, or a custom regimental theme.

Bases with industrial flooring, landing zones, ruins, dust clouds, craters, or high-altitude drop zone themes perfectly suit their role as rapid air assault troops.
