[Kill Team] Question About Numbers of Minis Needed

[MrBlipvert]

Hi folks,

This is hopefully not too off topic but ... I bought a box of the Adeptus Arbites: Exaction Squad from GW (for a jokey Oldhammer project, FWIW), after waiting far too long/ too impatiently for my FLGS to deliver. I'm going with the new version, because I do not [EDIT: and will likely never[ have the funds in my bank account to [EDIT: track down classic Adeptus Arbites minis]. Of course, my order at the FLGS has now arrived, several months later. My question for people who have Kill Team is ...

... is it actually possible to play a "tournament" game of Kill Team with the minis from one box--and, hence, return / release the Exaction Squad box that I am sure will get snapped up? Or should I pull the trigger and buy the second box too?

I have no clue what a 'kill team' is... a form of Necromunder gang? (I only have one experience playing that game, when it was fairly new and ..... it wasn't a happy experience, so kinda soured me). Normally the sold units either single or as a complete unit.. so.. I would say if you brought a unit, it's a complete unit if unopenned..

Thanks. It's the current GW "skirmish-level" minis game. This is the box in question: https://www.warhammer.com/en-US/shop/kill-team-exaction-squad-2023

Looks like a complete unit to me. I can just imagine the outroar back in the day if they released the space marine Heavy Weapon squads with only 4 with the rules saying you have a mini of 5... there would be an riot back in the day.. not sure these days.. I've seen some of the prices for a single mini which looks a bit sub-par to me.. yikes..

Thanks, gang. I've decided to go ahead and get the second box, anyway. (I mean, one wonders how long before they release Arbites again, soooooo ...)
