Whenever the Great Gun of Volkus fires, its shockwaves rock the foundation of the Hive City Fissilicus. In the wake of its latest great report, alien growths are unearthed and in response Tech-Priests are sent to investigate with Battleclades of cyborg servants as protection. Doing so wakes up broods of vicious Raveners, and battle ensues in an environment warped by Tyranid growths.
Kill Team: Typhon contains two new kill teams. The Battleclades are a group of eight Servitors outfitted for combat and exploration, led by a Servitor Underseer who relays messages to the rest of the crew, as directed by the more learned Technoarcheologist. Raveners are a brood of aggressive bioforms that can tunnel through terrain to ambush their foes, and their kill team comprises four specialised Raveners led by a Prime.
