Warhammer 40K: Starter Set

In the bleak darkness of the distant future, there is nothing but endless war.

Across the scattered worlds of the Imperium of Mankind, amid a galaxy torn apart by warp storms and constant battle, humanity’s armies fight desperately to survive. With the Imperium teetering on the edge of destruction, the Tyranid hive fleets emerge from the cold void between stars. The Space Marines stand as the final barrier between this ravenous alien threat and the fragile worlds of the Imperium.

Dive into the 41st Millennium with this Warhammer 40,000 Starter Set. This box offers an engaging introduction, featuring stunning miniatures, a game mat for battles, helpful guides, and all the dice and tools you need to play your first matches. Choose to command the heroic Space Marines or the overwhelming Tyranids, hand control of the opposing army to a friend or family member, and enjoy hours of thrilling gameplay. This set is perfect for newcomers to Warhammer 40,000 as well as for players looking to expand their existing collections.
