About this deal

The Broodlord and Genestealers are a solid core to build around, and helpful whether you’re building a full Tyranids army or just adding a Kraken Detachment of Genestealers to your Forces of the Hive Mind army.

Not only are they absolutely AMAZING on the battlefield (seriously, check out our article on the subject), but they’re commonly used to provide Vanguard strike forces with heavy fire support and spearhead assaults, so they’ll fit the Detachment’s theme perfectly! The Start Collecting box that gets our vote for “the next one to be discontinued,” there’s not a ton this particular box has to offer. Where you should start will depend on what legion you want to play and how competitive you want to go. Aggressors are a surprisingly good pick for Space Wolves, who really like using the Lone Wolf Stratagem on them when opponents can only wipe out 2/3 of the squad with their new profiles. The value of the individual boxes varies pretty wildly – both in terms of the savings on offer and in terms of the in-game points they represent.

But the upside is that you have some extremely rad models, some cool powers, and look – as the saying goes: “Evil will always win because good is lame. The combined abilities of their marksman bolt carbines and Siege Masters Warlord Trait will mean that for each hit roll of a 6, your Imperial Fists Infiltrators will score one automatic wound and an extra hit! To paint, use water-soluble acrylic paints like Vallejo Acrylics, The Army Painter Warpaints, AK Interactive 3rd Generation Acrylics, or Citadel Colour!

The Ethereal on Hover Drone, Fire Warriors, and Drones all see tons of competitive use at high levels, and you can never have enough drones as T’au in the current rules. Note that the Chaos Possessed aren’t out yet at the time of this writing, but when they are they’ll be worth picking up. Some say that it is a wonderful set to start their Warhammer journey and is well worth it to start building your Chaos army. A box stuffed full of good stuff, with the second-highest cash savings (coming in just behind Craftworlds).THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY, THE HOBBIT: THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG, THE HOBBIT: THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES and the names of the characters, items, events and places therein are trademarks of The Saul Zaentz Company d/b/a Middle-earth Enterprises under license to New Line Productions, Inc. Let’s jump into some particular goals you might have, and how I’d recommend building in the next section. While legion will normally have a bit of an impact on what you take, I’ve left this particular list legion-agnostic for the moment; it’ll work well in most if not all of the legions (and just play differently).

That said, everything in this box except the Lieutenant is a solid addition to a competitive Space Marines army, and even the Lieutenant is serviceable in a pinch. For most players, the Start Collecting box (with the Shadowspear models) is a pretty good deal, and a great starting point regardless of which legion you’re playing.They mention that the models are great, the quality of the molds is superb, and the kits are exclusive to this box. The book has rules for 8 Chaos Legions – Alpha Legion, Black Legion, Creations of Bile, Emperor’s Children, Iron Warriors, Night Lords, and Word Bearers. You’re going to need at least one Lord Discordant, a Master of Possession, 1-3 units of Cultists, several boxes of Chosen and Possessed, and likely 10 Terminators. likewise, the World Eaters are in transition to getting their own army at some point in the next year, and currently rules for the faction’s unique units can be found in White Dwarf 477. Word Bearers are known for cavorting with Daemons, and are great fits for running lots of Possessed.
