Look out for all these boxes in stores from today, and join the Battle for Vedros.
Is it the 2000’s again? The brand new Battle For Vedros starter borrows heavily from the old Battle for Macragge set.
BoLS got tthe new Battle for Vedros Starter recently – checkout the new entry point for new hobbyists the world over.
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.
