Warhammer 40K Introductory Set

Warhammer 40K Introductory Set

In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war.

Across the far-flung worlds of the Imperium of Mankind, in a galaxy riven by warp storms and unceasing conflict, the armies of Humanity battle for survival. With the Imperium already standing upon the brink of annihilation, the Tyranid hive fleets emerge from the cold void between the stars. The Space Marines stand as the last line of defence between this ravenous alien menace and the beleaguered worlds of the Imperium.

The Warhammer 40K Introductory Set offers an exciting entry into the dark, war-torn universe of the 41st Millennium. As chaos and conflict consume the galaxy, the Imperium of Mankind fights for its survival against the relentless Tyranid hive fleets. In this gripping introductory set, you will take control of either the noble Space Marines or the alien Tyranids, battling it out in epic tabletop warfare.

With the Warhammer 40K Introductory Set, you will find everything you need to dive into this immersive hobby. The set includes two sets of push-fit miniatures, allowing you to assemble and paint your own army. You can choose to command the genetically-enhanced Space Marines or take control of the ravenous Tyranids. Each set of miniatures is designed to be easily assembled without the need for glue, making it hassle-free for beginners.

This boxed set also features a 48-page softcover handbook that serves as a comprehensive guide to the game, providing construction guides, rules tutorials, and training missions to help you quickly get up to speed. Furthermore, a double-sided gaming mat provides a battlefield backdrop for your intense battles, while the range ruler and dice are essential tools for movement, shooting, and close combat.

To further enhance your gaming experience, the Warhammer 40K Introductory Set includes a collection of cardboard tokens and terrain markers. These assist in representing walls, objectives, and turn tracking, ensuring smooth gameplay.

Additionally, the set comes with Citadel Starter Clippers and a Citadel Colour Starter Brush, providing you with the necessary tools to remove and prepare your miniatures for painting. Five 12ml Citadel Colour paints in iconic Ultramarines and Hive Fleet Leviathan colors are also included, allowing you to add a personal touch to your models.

Please note that the miniatures included in the set require assembly and painting, and we recommend using Citadel Colour paints for best results.
