Kill Team: The App

yet

It's a small company, they can't be bothered to reformat PDFs for mobile use...

Its updated regularly, easy to read and find what I need before or during a game regarding a faction or referencing rules. It does lack a war journal like the 40k app so it would be cool if there was a game scoring or management system to increase the interactivity with an opponent. Maybe that will come in the future. Otherwise there's no issues with the KT app.

so nice to have something from Games workshop that they don't monetize esp considering how fun killteam is

An option to download and/or update all the files would be fantastic.

where balance slate GW where is it

where's the data slate!!. you had one job and you managed to screw that up. Useless Devs, dead game!

why does this not contain the core rules?? I bought the starter set and I cant even get the core rules in digital? unacceptable!!

Could use a better search function but otherwise great.

Easy way to read the rules and to get them in a format that is easy to print on your own. There are a few rules that cause the app to backout when you open them (Killzone tombworld rules) and it is a shame that you cannot view Operatives Datacards in landscape mode. It would also be nice if there was a quick reference to weapon rules in the app as it can get tedious to have to keep backing out of the operatives Datacards to read the weapon rules in the "Lite Rules" section.

needs to improve with better than management and integration of cards for Kill team building. does give you very simple basic core rules and eaxh kill team rules.

Ok as long as both players have the app. Useless faff swapping between data sheets and teams otherwise. it needs a side-by-side or quick swap option

Glorified pdf reader, do better, GW!

very useful

Lacks many obvious quality of life features but it serviceable for what it is.

glorified pdf reader, but splits the info onto different pages making it inconvenient to use. utterly pointless.

Classic case of a major company making the absolute cheapest, most bare-minimum app possible.

could be a bit more user friendly, but its functional, and surprisingly for GW, actually free

After last update unable to download new documents (on tablet and phone)

GW, this is how you should do your rules, not paid nonsense

Compared to the absolutely brilliant and community-driven Albecortes BattleKit, which genuinely supported players before Games Workshop decided to shut it down by force, this Kill Team app feels like nothing more than a pile of PDFs stuffed into a terrible interface.

data card formatting is awful. equipment list formatting is awful. lite rules are so close to complete that it's very frustrating that they aren't just complete. a nice app, but perpetually incomplete

Shame on GW for forcing the dev of Battle Kit to take down their app. It was vastly superior to this and made me want to play more Kill Team.

I've been using it for a few years and tbh, I will 100% support

GW killed BattleKit. An app that has all of the rules and KEYWORD rules... ignorant and foolish killing off fan made resources to make your game more accessible.

GW killed Battlekit, best community made companion for killteam to force users into this glorified pdf viewer that sucks so hard in comparison

please consider firing your layers and hiring the guy who made kt3 to help make the app actually usable

Abussive company, not only they enter in legal fights just to strangle a fan app but their app is a front por pdfs and screenshots with 0 optimization

Easy to use, good overview of teams and so on. best on the market 😉

Went after a small community member instead of improving this terrible glorified PDF viewer.

Battle kit was better, this is just a bad pdf reader. It offers nothing that a bunch of pdfs in the same folder wouldn't

worse than any other options out there. the app is clunky has no keyword look up and is hard to use during a game. do not recommend to new players or anyone who wants to play this game with friends or at a tournament.

battlekit was better, learn from it instead

Just a bunch of PDFs. Zero functionality. There WAS an app that actually made the game accessible, battlekit, but GW copyright striked it and left us with this garbage. Just don't even bother.

literally a worse battlekit. GW has invented... PDF viewers, yay

Very lazy design, it is a PDF reader. The community far preferred using Alber Cortés' Battlekit app that had actual good UX/UI but GW decided to bring it down. Until they create a real alternative to the Battlekit app, I'll rate this 1/5.

This is not an app for Kill Team. It is a pdf viewer with a theme and color scheme. This "app" and the physical core rule book I purchased do not effectively or concisely explain the game rules and set up. I used a third party resource to help teach the steps for game set ups and sequencing to my sons and friends who were interested in the game, but that is no longer available due to threat of litigation by Games Workshop.

cant even compare with battlekit

Really, just..awful to use. Bring back battlekit!

This app is not good enough. It is mostly a reskinned pdf viewer, and jumping to different sheets during the game is annoying. There was really no need for me to review because, luckily, we had alternatives. Now I'm stuck to use this to play? Not sure I'd bother. Physical cards are different, and often obsolete by the time you get your hands on them. You can't trust what's written there anymore.

battlekit was better

killed battlekit

if you're going to shut down kt3 at least make a competent app

Why take down Battlekit? GW is an evil corp. I feel sorry to like the game so much.

the old kill team app was better, this is just a pdf reader

battlekit is better, but you guys are getting rid of that. but maybe learn from them and put all the rules from the core book in a format like theirs .. actually just copy what they did of you could please with searchability and the rest.

Okay, so I only recently got into kill team. I have bought the hivestorm box. The reason I'm putting this app at 3 stars is because you need to download for EVERYTHING. You get a new kill team.Well done now, download the rules on the app. And even the game rules.Guess what? DOWNLOAD IT!!

Works

Horrible UI. You open a "pdf" in the app that you have to scroll through, but scrolling left has a 50% chance to instead close the pdf. Just put these pdfs online.... you don't need an app for this. just let people download the pdfs and be done.

It's not great, and is basically just a glorified pdf downloader, but it is organized helpfully, so its's not useless.

its pretty good but it leaves out some important rules like how to use equipment and firefight/strategy ploys

So far this is 100% free to utilize until GW figure out someway to lock content behind another paywall. It's stupid how they deal with Data cards/warscrolls in a .pdf like view, but like I said, it's all free (including Core Lite Rules, data cards and strategic ploys, etc) for all various Kill Teams to use. if you don't have a printer handy, this is your next bet.

super messy and poorly planned app. the UGI is clunky, ugly, and is not intuitive

A front end for PDF downloads. This app literally just downloads PDF datacards, so on a small device you'll be zooming a scrolling and flipping through pages of data every time you need to reference the profile of your miniatures. No added value, you're better off just bringing along the rulebook and some print outs as needed.

Could use a list building feature as well as an option to track all the tokens in app instead of on the table but it's still neat.

It's kinda just a pdf viewer... we'll see if they update it. but it is nice to have everything free and in one place

this app really need some quick help for the keywords, going from file to file is really tiresome.

it's awesome all the rules for free plus mission seasons highly recommended

It's completely free with no subscription. I'm very happy with this app. It is such a welcome addition to the game, especially since 2nd edition. You can check the rules and stats of all existing teams. This is very useful compared to the days of constantly flipping through the dossiers. And the app updates extremely quickly with the balance updates.

great stuff

I wish there was a way to view cards in full screen mode. With the top and bottom tool bars always visible....the operative data cards fill only half your screen area forcing you to constantly be zooming in and out. Great resource overall but wish more attention to user experience of people actually trying to play the game was given.

This app is identical to the regular 40k app without any of the pay walls (so far). It would be a 5-star app if there was a way to actually run games or at least keep up with points, but at least you have all the information needed to play the game.

Great for reference. harder to use during games. would be good to add a in game tracker. also, some way to favorite your teams you use most. don't have to scroll all the way down for plague marines lol.

free information about the armies and how to play. just needs a list builder

Wish it had features for playing the game. It's just a pdf reader. It could at least have linking between rules.

the app is okay, the game is mind numbingly boring. conceal is a BS thing and the angels of death are way too over powered. not worth your time to learn, let alone your money.

Has everything EXCEPT the core rules for some god(emperor) forsaken reason

A PDF viewer with no list building and a useless search function. Truly we have been blessed by GW.

A little bit clunky at times, it's basically a glorified pdf reader, but that's all that's needed, and it works well. The stats are updated as the game evolves, which the paper books can't do. All in all a must have to play killteams. If you play killteams and don't use this, you're doing it wrong.

A great way to access data cards without having to pay gws exorbitant prices. Have been using this app to ensure everyone in my kill team league has equal knowledge. App is somewhat finicky and does have some quality of life issues but I would still recommend highly to anyone who plays kill team or is interested in playing kill team.

App is super helpful keeping rules in order. Only have 2 wishes 1. I want to favorite my teams 2. I want all of the weapon ability descriptions in the rules listed. It's missing a bunch of them.

It's good that all the basic rules are here and free and, but the app needs some features to make it easier to use. Like tapping on weapon rules to bring up the rule, or hiding/favoriting teams to clear out the ones you don't need.

Overall a good app but lacks the approved ops and you can't play a full game without them. Only options seem to be a $60 book or $35 set of cards.

Login is bugged. Does not open default browser and gives an Error Unauthorized Client in Chrome, Firefox and Brave.

The content (data cards, etc) needs a full screen landscape view. Significant portion of the view area is take up by dead space that is the action bar and tab bar so even on a phone such as a Samsung S24 the content is scaled down unnecessarily.

Devs a UI suggestion that could make the viewing experience better. Data sheets of units that have a front and back. Put them both on a single page to view (front page on top and back page below) that way when scrolling right and left between units it's less pages and a person does not need to scroll more to view the back page of said unit. 👍😁

Completely and utterly useless. In this new rule set "they give for free" all the core factions of the game are gone. All the compendium original faction have been removed from the game in a bid to sell plastic. Completely and utterly unacceptable.

Great App but PLEASE have a section for downloaded and not kill teams data. I don't want to try to quickly try to scroll through to find Kommandos and accidentally start downloading Kasrkin each time

Good to have a database ready to download for the community directly from the warhammer team. 100% cool. Keep it up, pdf formats set a good standard so every one can enjoy them.

Finally game workshop are taking care of their customers

Absolutely terrible. Can't even log into your Warhammer account, as when you try, it gives an error. Tried reaching out to tech help and they said "cool, we're sending it to the web team, good luck." 0/10, 0/7 with rice.

Because GW need to sort their work out and properly balance the game. Also the app is a glorified, muddled PDF reader. Sure it is better than no app but the third parties have done this a lot better!

Great app, amazing to get started with playing warhammer. However, im completely unable to sign in on the app. This isnt a massive issue, as you can skip the sign in, but is still an inconvinience

Seems quite functional, though seems to be missing Universal Equipment and the Hive storm launch event mission. Could do with keywords linking to the glossary.

FREE GAMES WORKSHOP RULES!!! THIS IS A MOMENT IN HISTORY!!!

Solid app for learning the game, poor replacement for the book however. Searching core rule interactions brings up every possible faction rule that mentions it before the relevant core rule (in some cases the core rule isn't shown at all). If I had to improve this app in anyway it would be having downloaded factions sorted/prioritized over undownloaded ones

It's okay but how about you add a kill team maker

Cannot sign in: unauthorized client...

Works great has all the info in one place exactly what you want in a rules app

Can't log with my account and can't contact Warhammer support.

EVERY FREAKING TIME! Games workshop is the worst app maker ever. Everytime they put out an app it will always let you down. They were so close. It has all the rules in one spot but everything is an image. The data cards are a freaking joke and of course the big thing ya want is to make a roster... Nope. As always use a 3rd party app.

Been using this app since it came out it's pretty good I will say I think the lite rules are no help besides as a quick reference but that means backing out of whatever team you are playing just might as well have the actual core rule book

Why was this even created? Its a web page. You have to download each individual teams rules. Its no different than going to GWs website.

The app is good but needs some more features added, currently its just a free directory for datasheets and core rules. For this to be the "Go to" for killteam players, especially for me, a new player. If it had a battle forge section, very similar to the one on the 40k app, where you could construct your killteam, with added keywords indicators for ease of use. If something like this was added it would be a brilliant app.

No army builder. Is basically a pdf viewer.

It's great all the rules are in one place, but trying to actually access them while playing is a pain. Can't favorite a team or have any personalization so you're constantly having to hunt the list for your team if you're switching between core rules and team rules alot. As well as data cards being disappointing in their current format as they make it hard to find the right character quickly. Tl;Dr Having all info is nice but having to jump around menus constantly makes it a chore to use.

Great app, does what it's supposed to. Would be great to have a few ux improvements but it serves it's purpose.

Def more convenient then the old alternatives. Would be nice to be able to click on special rules and see them instead of going to rules lite reference. You don't need to build lists. Any one saying that is a missing feature hasn't played much killteam.

Okay for reference but needs additional features, not limited to these below. - I should be able to favorite teams so they appear at the top of the list. - Add hot links for rules... If my weapon attribute is "Brutal", I should be able to click that word and a pop-up with its definition should appear, or the rule page should come up.

Soild enough. Pup rules in the datasheet world be excellent, but generally happy I can play with my toys and have the rules on hand for free 👍

I saw hate comments saying "It's just a PDF reader", but these comments are wrong. You see, PDF reader can actually be used to read PDFs, this thing doesn't even have the full rules in it. Just install KTdash, it's way better than this garbage...

Generally a good app for viewing lite rules and team rules. A bit clunky. E.g.,When rotating phone it skips back to the first page of that section. Can be tricky to zoom in. Great resource though!

As others have said, it's a pdf reader, but it is somewhat handy to have everything in one place. However, there is no list creating for teams, so you either gotta remember your equipment and loadout selection or note it down somewhere. Even after downloading the app, you still have to download each teams' rules. It works, but I wish it was a better app.

It's free and makes it easy to have your rules and abilities while playing if you don't have money for data cards and kill team codex

Would love to see not just the lite rules but also the full version. Also hoping for future updates to be able to track my own team etc.

It's a PDF reader. It works and has all the rules but it definitely didn't reach it's full potential.

Its a PDF reader. Its a minimum effort app that is worse than almost all other alternatives

It's nice to have the rules available for free, but this app is just a glorified pdf reader. It's totally unusable for actually playing the game - you can't even build a Kill Team roster on the app! Very half-hearted effort.

Free rules in one place is great! But the app itself is mid at best, just a pdf reader with no organisation and useful functionality. I've expected at least similar app to 40k, but unfortunately this app is much worse.

Bare minimum functionality and a bit annoying to use. The only positive compared to warhammer-community rules is that all the cards are actually same size as the physical one.

You could have used the 40k and AoS as templates for the interface and instead decided to ignore them and make a glorified pdf reader. At least split the datacards section into single operatives and make them vertical to better fit the smartphone

Fantastic app, though no list builder - mostly just a PDF viewer but it is far ahead of the other GW apps as it doesn't have any mandatory purchases (Yet, GW always manages to ruin everything and scream 'more money' at you)

I'm very happy that GW decided to make this app, it's useful, so far works like a charm and easy to navigate.

Smooth and sleek, works well, presents the information cleanly, very good

Does all that I need it to do. Easy to navigate and reference the rules of both player's teams. I'd rate it 5 if we could pin our teams to the top of the list. It would also be nice if we could have multiple tabs open.

Multiple apps with list building capabilities and instead of working off of a functional platform you simply didnt put the list builder on there. Now the edition is released and we have a pdf reader instead of setting up the models in the same way the other apps are organized. Yall should have known better. Get this thing fixed before other developers make something better because cease and desist only make us want to buy less from you. Ill alter my comment and rating when you alter the app

Ok for first version. Data cards need to be more mobile phone friendly. Feels clunky having to trunk phone landscape and zoom in. Please make a better mobile update.

Good app, I hope that it became more dinamic and interactive so you could use it more easily.

well it is an app. but it's really just a PDF viewer with extra steps. this is a terrible excuse for an app and games workshop should be ashamed of this. at the minimum I expected a level of effort equal to the aos or current Warhammer40k app but this is egregious. do better.

I hope this stays free makes me want to play kill team now. App works well and does what it needs to.

Th 40k & AoS app are significantly superior to this. What happened? Why is this a garbage PDF downloader & why does it want my personal information. Being a WH+ gives you nothing too unlike the other apps, literally everything it "provideds" can jusy be googled & screenshot. Avoid this app at all costs.

Initial release is a glorified PDF reader for what you can download off the website, and doesn't come with any team rules downloaded (remember to download them before you need them). Hoping subsequent updates make it more like the GW 40k app with proper searchable rules.

Basically just a glorified PDF reader. Extremely limited functionality but an absolutely *massive* size - if you download all the teams it'll run you about a gigabyte, which is far bigger than the 40K app. Got some weird display bugs like an odd shifting around of the display when you open a reference page, doesn't seem like much QA took place.

All this app does is make it easier to download and view all the PDFs of the data sheets, there is no battle forge/army builder

If only the quality was same as the 40k app i would rate it higher. Feels low quality because of webview + pdf.

I appreciate that this exists, but can we format the data cards to fit on a mobile device nicely in landscape mode.

Gives you pdfs, no team building, just the rules. Idk kinda the worst killteam app atm. There are better apps that let you actually make teams and use pictures.

Free rules with a easy to use app to download and always have the updated rules for each faction is great. Being able to download the PDFs to print is also great so one can still play without using the phone if one wants to. Thanks GW for the app.

It seems the team behind this app learned none of the lessons learnt from the main Warhammer 40000 app. Why are all the rules in pdfs? Why didn't you just have it as text? You had a search function in the main 40k app, and didn't think it'd be a handy feature here too? No list builder as well?

I will change this if as and when the app gets better, but right now, this is just a bare bones half finished mess. This has nothing on battle scribe and compared to the app for fullscale 40k. this is honestly shameful missing factions, screen shots from codexes (bad ones at that). This is a poor effort at an app that is supposed to make our lives easier and more simplified. Honestly, either stick with battle scribe or the hard copies of the codexes we all already have as this is shockingly bad

The app is horrible. It has no interaction or list building abilities. It is just a catalog of screenshots from the new rules manual. The 40k app works so well I don't know why they would change things up now. List building is a must or the app is pointless. I hope they figure this out soon.

Has potential, but currently is just a pdf reader for rules cards. It does make it easy and quick to reference stuff, but I hope they add the ability to track your kill team's progress with anything.

It's a glorified PDF viewer. Most of the core rules and all the team rules for free, which is nice, but i figured there'd be a list builder/roster builder or something to that extent. It's ok at best.

It's decent. Super easy and clean to use and see. However I wish it had a Squad Create list so I know what I can equip on my units. Either what is allowed or not. So i can have a more easier time to play.

Why bother? This app just downloads the PDFs then let's you view them. There are many better PDF readers out there, the same PDFs are free on the website, and this does nothing that the 40k and Sigmar apps do so well. It doesn't even come with the PDFs. You still have download them in the app. They couldn't even be bothered to format the documents for easier reading on a phone display. Gave two stars because I guess at least it doesn't crash constantly...

Made me laugh how it is just pngs of the printed rules. Nothing is made to fit phone screens. Has no army management or any features other than reading rules from pictures. Not interactive. It should be much more like the 40k and sigmar apps. At least it seems all rules are available which is why I gave 2 stars instead of 1.
