Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000 - BOARDING PATROL: Orks

Product Information

This Boarding Patrol takes advantage of the new Cadian range – using a Command Squad, Shock Troops, and Kasrkin units to pack a serious ranged punch into a tight package, backed up by two squads of hulking abhumans. And in the Mortal Realms a preening popinjay and a cut-throat cleric prepare to do battle to prove that their god is better. Boarding Patrol: Necrons is a dispassionate force of mechanised warriors featuring 10 Necron Warriors, three Canoptek Scarab Swarms, 10 Lychguard – who can be built as Triarch Praetorians outside of Boarding Actions – and three Ophydian Destroyers with a Canoptek Plasmactyte.

These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.

The Adeptus Mechanicus bring a flexible force of 10 Skitarii, who can be built as Rangers or Vanguard, backed up by three hulking Kataphrons, which can be built as Destroyers or the appropriately-named Breachers. He’s joined by a bodyguard of three Deathshroud Terminators, as well as 10 versatile Plague Marines – three of which are taken from the much-sought-after Plague Marine Reinforcements set.There’s more to come from the Arks of Omen yet, as the machinations of Vashtorr and Abaddon come to a brutal head in the forthcoming fifth book in the series – The Lion . You’ll get enough bits to arm them with a selection of shootas, sluggas, and choppas, plus of course guns with extra dakka, and even killier weapons for each nob. The Corsair Voidscarred bring all the toys from their Kill Team set, taking up the lion’s share of the points but punching far above their weight with psychic powers, blasters, fusion pistols, and a shuriken cannon. The Flash Gitz have been in a few boxes now, but as Freebootaz they fit into the Space Hulk setting.

As always, keep your astropathic choir trained on the searing light of the Astronomican – or just sign up for the Warhammer Community newsletter for more up-to-the-millennium communiqués as they’re revealed. The three heads are a nice addition, but I would have preferred an alternative left arm to mimic the iconic “shhh” pose of the old model. Deffkoptas are instantly recognisable, but they’ve been brought up to date with fantastic new sculpts. Such power does take up a sizeable chunk of your 500 points, so you can bulk out your Boarding Patrol with a squad of Imperial Navy Breachers. In case you were wondering yes, Snikrot does have three different head options: mask off, mask up, or mask down.The idea of Flesh Hounds rampaging down a corridor alongside Karanak is awesome, so we allow Chaos Daemons to take a Flesh Hounds unit despite them being Fast Attack. The Warhammer Paint team are on hand to help you get Commander Farsight’s brand-new Supernova Battlesuit looking the best it can with just 10 pots of paint.
