FAQs

What game system is this product for?

This product is designed for the Games Workshop Kill Team tabletop miniature wargame.

Do the Raveners need to be assembled?

Yes, this is a plastic model kit that requires assembly and painting.

What customization options are available?

The kit includes multiple options for special adaptations and equipment, allowing you to customize your Raveners.

What are the key strengths of the Ravener kill team?

Their key strengths lie in their elite melee capabilities and their ability to perform ambushes using their burrowing feature.

Are there any specific gameplay strategies recommended for Raveners?

Raveners excel in aggressive assaults and ambushes. They are best used to close the distance quickly and overwhelm opponents in melee combat. Their burrowing ability is crucial for surprise attacks.

What do the included tokens represent?

The tokens are for use in games of Kill Team to track various game effects, unit statuses, or special abilities.

Can these models be used in Warhammer 40,000?

While primarily designed for Kill Team, Tyranid models can often be incorporated into Warhammer 40,000 armies as Tyranid Warriors or similar units, subject to their specific rules in that game system.

Troubleshooting

Model parts do not fit together correctly.

Ensure you are using the correct parts as indicated in the assembly instructions. Small plastic excess (flash) may need to be carefully trimmed with a hobby knife. Applying gentle pressure or warm water (briefly) can sometimes help with minor adjustments.

Difficulty assembling delicate parts.

Use appropriate hobby tools such as plastic clippers and a hobby knife. A plastic cement or super glue suitable for plastic models is recommended. Allow glue to dry fully before handling.

Paint not adhering properly.

Ensure the model is clean and free of mold release agents. Wash the model with soapy water and a soft brush before priming. Use a quality primer specifically designed for miniatures.

Token sheets are difficult to punch out.

Carefully use a hobby knife or a dedicated token-cutting tool to separate tokens. If using fingers, try to press from the sides of the perforated lines.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This product is a plastic model kit that requires assembly and painting. It is designed for use within the Games Workshop Kill Team game system. Follow the included assembly instructions carefully to ensure all parts are attached correctly. Painting is recommended to protect the plastic and enhance the model's appearance. Compatibility is limited to the Kill Team game system and potentially other Games Workshop games where Tyranids are supported. For care, keep the models clean and free from dust. Avoid exposing them to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight for prolonged periods, which can damage the plastic and paint.
