These Teams are organized to hunt down and kill [[Xenos]] and consist of [[Battle-Brother]]s from many different [[Chapter]]s.{{Fn|1}} The basic organizational structure of a Kill-Team consists of one [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] and between four and nine Deathwatch Marines. Deathwatch officers invariably choose their members of their Kill Team in order to draw on as much relevant experience as possible. With different [[Chapter]]s having long-standing specializations, it is easy to identify those who will have the most relevant insights in a given circumstance. Long-standing rivalries between certain chapter,s such as the [[Dark Angels]] and [[Space Wolves]], can effect the capabilities of Kill-Teams but more often than not members of these squads will eventually establish bonds of firm friendship.{{Fn|3}}
