Enter the grim darkness of the far future with the Warhammer 40,000 Starter Set, the perfect gateway into Games Workshop's legendary tabletop wargaming universe. This comprehensive starter collection pits the genetically-enhanced Space Marines against the ravenous alien Tyranids in an epic battle for survival that will captivate both newcomers and experienced hobbyists alike.
What's Included:
This feature-packed starter set contains everything needed to begin your Warhammer 40,000 journey. At its heart are 38 high-quality push-fit plastic miniatures that require no glue for assembly, making them perfect for immediate play. The Space Marine force includes a veteran Captain in Terminator Armour, five heavily-armored Terminators equipped with devastating heavy weapons, and five Infernus Marines wielding powerful flame weapons designed to incinerate swarming enemies.
The opposing Tyranid swarm features an impressive variety of alien horrors: a Winged Tyranid Prime that serves as a conduit for the Hive Mind's will, a massive Psychophage monstrosity with a horrific maw, three mantis-like Von Ryan's Leapers that strike from the shadows, twenty scuttling Termagants armed with living ammunition, and two Ripper Swarms that devour the fallen.
Complete Gaming Experience:
Beyond the miniatures, this set provides a complete gaming foundation with a 64-page softcover Starter Set Handbook featuring construction guides, rules tutorials, and training missions designed to eliminate confusion and accelerate learning. Two army reference sheets offer simplified datasheets for smooth gameplay, while the included 30" x 22.4" double-sided gaming mat provides two different battlefield environments for your conflicts.
Essential gaming accessories include 10 six-sided dice and 2 range rulers for measuring movement, shooting ranges, and combat distances. These tools are fundamental to Warhammer 40,000 gameplay and ensure accurate, fair battles between opposing forces.
Perfect for Beginners and Veterans:
The push-fit design eliminates the need for plastic cement, allowing immediate assembly and gameplay. However, advanced hobbyists can still use traditional modeling techniques for customization. The simplified rules system introduces core concepts gradually, while the included armies are perfectly balanced for engaging matches regardless of experience level.
Expandable Foundation:
This starter set serves as an excellent foundation for larger collections. Both armies can be expanded with additional units, vehicles, and characters from Games Workshop's extensive Warhammer 40,000 range. The Space Marines and Tyranids represent two of the game's most popular factions, ensuring long-term collecting and gaming potential.

Skill Level: Beginner to intermediate
Playing Time: 30-90 minutes per game
