With the addition of a new exclusive Primaris Bladeguard Lieutenant, you’ll never guess the number of LT 40k models there are now!
Let’s be honest with ourselves, we all love to meme on Lieutenants, but they have feelings too! So next time you make fun of them, just remember they might cry themselves to sleep that night.
You’ll Never Guess The Number of Primaris Lieutenant Models Now
Anyway, here is a look at all the current Priamris Lieutenant models so we can see how many there actually are and you can pick your favorite champion.
Heck, maybe GW can make a fighter video game with just them as the characters, that would be fun!
#1 Custodes Get Their Own (?)
Let’s start with the new codex rumor, that the Blade Champion is actually a new Lieutenant level character as well for the Adeptus Custodes! They were sitting sadly in the corner without enough of the pivotal modes, so thank the big guy on the throne for answering their prayers!
#2 Primaris Lieutenant With Storm Shield
Next up, this Lieutenant is getting a ton of limelight as he’s taking an exclusive spot. It’s really not fair to his fellow Lieutenants because he isn’t anything special, just the most recent. Still, the new guys get all the love. At least he has a shield? Maybe that’s something…
#3 Amulius
We’re not sure what the fascination is with releasing Lieutenants as exclusives, but hey, who didn’t need another guy holding a helmet.
#4 Reiver Armor Version
This is honestly a really cool mini, and again, you need a lieutenant on every part of the battlefield, so why wouldn’t you have this one?
#5 The Power Sword One
He may not look like much, but trust us, he would beat at least two Guardsmen at once, maybe even with one hand tied behind his back.
#6 Tolmeron
Even the mighty Blood Angels need their own Lieutenant! Plus, you know this guy has seen some battle, just look at that badass scar.
#7 Zakariah
Is he loyal? Is he not? Who really cares, he’s still a proud lieutenant! Just don’t get on his bad side because you know he has good torture methods.

#8 5ooth Store Dude
Are you noticing a pattern yet? GW must have a backlog of lieutenant designs, and anytime something important happens, bam, just break a new one out!
#9 Calsius
This guy was hard to get as he was only from the collectible magazine, but his amazing haircut (better than a rat tail, maybe…) makes up for any issues.
#10 Space Wolves Battle Leader
While he’s not technically called a lieutenant, we all know it’s the same thing, you aren’t fooling anyone Space Wolves!
#11 Phobos Armor
When you don’t want to be seen, this lieutenant is just the mini you need. Plus, at this point, why not just make a full army of lieutenants.
#12 Dark Imperium
This probably has the most firepower of any lieutenant, so you know he’s the man.
#13 Dark Imperium Needs More
Ah, one of the first lieutenants out there, just a true beauty, and the Dark Imperium is a big place, so obviously, they needed two lieutenants!
#14 The Most Important One
Let’s all be honest here, this is our favorite lieutenant out of all of them! The poor guy is getting ground into the dirt under the might of Abaddon!
#15 The Sneakiest of Lieutenants
The reason this one is sneaky, it was originally more of a captain, but GW just hated that idea. So what did they do? They made him a full-fledged lieutenant! Because what would a Space Marine release be without a trusty lieutenant?
If you don’t believe us, just look at the rules in the new supplement. So while this may be a little undercover, he’s still a true lieutenant and had to be included in this list!
#16 The One From Indomitus
When you need a shield and a Plasma Pistol, this is the guy for you! Considering Indomitus had so many minis, this guy ran a little under the radar, but he’s still a strong lieutenant!
A New Battle Box
This amazing box graphic comes from Reddit. If it was real, it would be the perfect way to get your full lieutenant force in one easy buy. Let’s just hope the value is there so people will jump on it- lol.
So currently there are around 16 Primaris Lieutenant models in Warhammer 40k, but Games Workshop is probably just warming up.
