Come see the brand new way for folks to get into the hobby! The “easy to build” Vedros starter for Warhammer 40k is here, come see!
BoLS got their hands on the new Battle for Vedros Starter set, and today we have a look at that may be the entry point for new hobbyists the world over.
Courtesy of BoLS:
The Battle For Vedros is going to be a really nice intro into the universe of Warhammer 40,000. For new players this is a perfect way to get started really quickly. It’s got quick assembly Space Marines and Orks – and if you’ve been playing 40k for awhile you probably recognize those sprues from Assault on Black Reach. While those miniatures aren’t the most articulate or unique in the pose department, they are a really good value.
