Warhammer 40,000: Fireteam (2021)

About this game

Responding to an urgent distress call, Squad Gideon has made planetfall in the distant Bakhar Sector. The worst fears of these five Assault Intercessors of the legendary Ultramarines Chapter are rapidly confirmed: the planet, Zanzamon, is an ancient tomb world belonging to Necrons of the infamous Szarkhan Dynasty – and its malevolent denizens are rapidly beginning to stir. Now, behind enemy lines and without backup, Sergeant Gideon and his men must fight their way through the hordes of awakening Necron Warriors who stand in their way, and put a stop to the Szarkhans' nefarious plans. —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 2.2/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
