'''Kill-Teams''' are the standard organizational unit of the [[Deathwatch]] [[Space Marine]]s.

==Overview==

The basic organizational structure of a Kill-Team consists of one [[Space Marine Sergeant|Sergeant]] 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 chapters, 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|3b}}{{Fn|4a}}
