3 New 40k 10th Edition Starter Sets, & More FIRST LOOK

Just like with Indomitus, they are breaking down the contents of Leviathan into a few different starter sets. You can either go with some with paints and miniatures or focus more on models and the rules.

Either way, these should be a decent value and a way to get into the game (or expand your army).

9th warhammer 40k bannerA variety of new 10th Edition Warhammer 40k Starter set boxes and bundles make up this week’s pre-orders; here are all the details straight from Warhammer Community.

Warhammer 40,000 The Rules: 

Warhammer 40,000 The Rules

The Warhammer 40,000 core rules have been revitalised with the new edition, changing the way that the game plays in numerous key ways. They are available to download for free, but this small hardback book is the ideal gaming companion. Just a touch smaller than A5 format, with a black ribbon page marker, it contains all 64 pages of the core rules… and nothing else. This product is only available from the Games Workshop webstore while stocks last.

If you want a physical book that is smaller than the Leviathan one, pick up just the core rules themselves! This will be roughly 148.5 x 210 mm or 5.8 x 8.3 inches in size.

Warhammer 40,000 Introductory Set

Warhammer 40,000 Introductory Set

The Warhammer 40,000 Introductory Set is the complete beginner product for Warhammer 40,000. It includes five Infernus Marines, 10 Termagants, and a Ripper Swarm – all push-fit miniatures – plus clippers, a brush, and five paints to start your journey into building and painting. A 48-page introductory set handbook contains tutorials and basic missions to play using the game mat, dice, ruler, and tokens included. It’s the perfect gift for those just starting on their Warhammer 40,000 journey.

If you’re looking to dip your toes into 10th Edition Warhammer 40k or convince a friend, this intro kit is a great option! This gets you the bare minimum to start building and painting, and you have two squads to see how combat goes!

Warhammer 40k 10th Edition Starter Sets Pre-Orders

Warhammer 40,000 Starter Set

The Warhammer 40,000 Starter Set is great for getting into the game – it includes all the miniatures from the Introductory Set, and adds a Captain in Terminator Armour and five Terminators on the Space Marine side, facing off against a Winged Tyranid Prime, Psychophage, three Von Ryan’s Leapers, and 10 more Termagants and a Ripper Swarm. 

The box contains simplified datasheets and a 64-page Warhammer 40,000 Starter Set Handbook, which features rules tutorials and training missions to get you started. You’ll also get a Space Marine transfer sheet with 849 decals, a playing mat, plus dice and a range ruler. 

Plus, the miniatures inside this box almost add up to two full Combat Patrols. All you need is to pick up a Librarian in Terminator Armour for Space Marines or a unit of Barbgaunts for Tyranids, and you’re ready to play out a Combat Patrol game!

If you already know how to hobby on minis and have your own paints, or want more models, this 10th Edition Warhammer 40k starter set is a great option.

10th Edition Warhammer 40k Ultimate Starter Set

Warhammer 40,000 Ultimate Starter Set

For the ultimate beginning to the new edition of the game, the aptly named Warhammer 40,000 Ultimate Starter Set is a comprehensive introduction to Warhammer 40,000. This box contains everything that the Starter Set does, plus those six extra miniatures you need to make two full Combat Patrols of Space Marine and Tyranids. Then there’s terrain, consisting of an STC Hab Bunker and eight stockades, which can be set up on the two double-sided gaming boards included. 

Much like the smaller sets, this box also contains a handbook, as well as a full Core Rules Booklet. This has all the core rules for the new edition and the rules for the fast and fun Combat Patrol mode, including six missions. You’ll also get dice, tokens, a range ruler, and a Space Marine transfer sheet.

Finally, this box adds terrain on top of a ton of models, making it perfect for an at-home gaming experience. It comes with the small a5-sized rulebook and a Hab-Bunker and Stockades. 

Librarian in Terminator Armour

Librarian in Terminator Armour details

If you’re buying the Starter Set and want to increase your collection to full Combat Patrol size, or if you just want to snag this puissant and well-protected psyker, you’ll be able to pre-order him separately from next week. He can lead your units of Terminators to give them resistance to incoming psychic attacks, while manipulating reality to ensure they put out even more firepower in return.

The new Terminator Librarian is releasing as its own separate release, which is sure to be a popular option for Space Marine players.

Barbgaunts

barbgaunts

Load up on five Barbgaunts to expand your Starter Set into a Tyranids Combat Patrol. The largest of the Gaunt genus to be identified by Imperial observers, these hunched creatures are slaves to their wriggling ganglio-parasites, unleashing volleys of explosive barbs from their bio-cannons.

Tyranids get access to the living artillery Barbagaunts as a separate kit for a new unique model with sweet weapons.

Infernus Marines + Paints

Infernus Marines + Paints

Get started with the painting aspect of the Warhammer hobby with this Infernus Marines + Paints set, which includes three push-fit Infernus Marines with embossed Ultramarines shoulder markings, and five paints – Corax White, Macragge Blue, Balthasar Gold, Abaddon Black, Agrax Earthshade, and Armageddon Dust – plus a Citadel starter brush. 

If you are interested in marines and want to test paint just a few miniatures, this kit is made for you.

Termagants & Ripper Swarm + Paints

Termagants and Ripper Swarm + Paints

Cultivate your own collection of horrors from beyond the galaxy with this Termagants and Ripper Swarm + Paints set. It contains three push-fit Termagants and a Ripper Swarm, a Citadel starter brush, and five paints – Corax White, Wraithbone, Naggaroth Night, Thunderhawk Blue, Magos Purple, and Armageddon Dust.

If you are interested in Tyranids and want to test out just painting a few miniatures then this kit is the perfect starting point.

Warhammer 40k Paints + Tools Set

Warhammer 40,000 Paints + Tools Set

This set contains everything you need to get started with your new push-fit miniatures. There are Citadel starter clippers, a mould line remover, a Citadel starter brush, and 13 paints – Abaddon Black, Corax White, Wraithbone, Naggaroth Night, Macragge Blue, Leadbelcher, Balthasar Gold, Bugman’s Glow, Mephiston Red, Thunderhawk Blue, Magos Purple, Agrax Earthshade, and Armageddon Dust. 

If you are going to get any of the starter boxes that don’t come with paint, this is a great option to get you started on being able to paint everything in the boxes!
