Do we need another game system in AOS?

I'm very sure we'll see GW either flesh out skirmish or make AoS Killteam in the future. It's just not the right time to really push it.

Killteam at its core is a gateway product designed to provide a really cheap and simple purchase to get people into the hobby by giving them a game centred around the use of very few models, but without the added layers of complexity and detail that you get with something like Necromunda, Inquisitor or Mordheim. Furthermore its not focused on cards like Shadspire. 

Thing is it is a gateway product, the idea is a fast easy to get into game that gets people buying and playing GW games without that "OMG it costs so much". Then once they are in they play commander mode, then get a few other troops - now they've got the very starting of a 500 point army to play with and now they are hooked and moving on and up to larger armies and more models and some of those really BIG impressive models and such. 

 

AoS needs this too, but right now SO many factions are either unplayable (on their own) and/or have no Battletome. So AoS needs a solid year like 40K, to get its Battletomes and armies sorted out. Once they are sorted out GW can easily bring out a Killteam style game with the same focus of being the gateway product to get people enticed into the game.
