Read moreRead less
Already set on the Angels of Death? Skip the dabbling and go straight to a proper army. Getting Started with Space Marines hands you a full 13-model Combat Patrol — the ideal first force for Warhammer 40,000 — along with the paints, brush and guidebook to build it, colour it and get it on the table. One box, no guesswork — just add a pair of clippers.
What's in the box
13 push-fit Space Marines miniatures, forming a complete Combat Patrol detachment
11 Warhammer Colour paints, selected just for Space Marines
1 paint brush to get started
1 texture spreader tool for quick, characterful bases
A comprehensive guidebook covering the setting, building and painting
The paints you get
Base (8): Abaddon Black, Corax White, Mephiston Red, Macragge Blue, Mournfang Brown, Leadbelcher, Retributor Armour and Wraithbone
Layer (1): Dawnstone — for picking out edges and highlights
Shade (1): Nuln Oil (17ml) — the classic black wash that makes armour and metal pop
Texture (1): Astrogranite (17ml) — cracked urban basing in a single coat
That selection covers the whole method — base, shade, highlight and basing — so there's nothing missing between you and a finished, battle-ready force. A Combat Patrol is the standard building block of a 40K army, so you're not just collecting — you're ready to play from the off.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Getting Started with Space Marines a good first Warhammer 40,000 army?
It's the safest first army in the game. Space Marines are the iconic faction, the rules are the most straightforward to learn, and thirteen models is a full Combat Patrol — a proper playable force rather than a taster. If you already know you want the Angels of Death, skip the dabbling and start here.
What's in Getting Started with Space Marines?
13 push-fit Space Marines forming a complete Combat Patrol detachment — a Captain with Relic Shield, a Librarian, five Intercessors, five Vanguard Veterans and a Land Speeder. Plus 11 Warhammer Colour paints chosen for Space Marines, a starter brush, a texture spreader for bases, and a full guidebook covering the setting, building and painting.
Do I need glue or clippers for the Space Marines?
No glue — every model is push-fit and clicks together. You'll want a pair of clippers to free the parts from their frames, and they aren't included in this box.
Eleven pots covering the whole method. Eight Base colours — Abaddon Black, Corax White, Mephiston Red, Macragge Blue, Mournfang Brown, Leadbelcher, Retributor Armour and Wraithbone — plus Dawnstone as a Layer for edges and highlights, Nuln Oil to make armour and metal pop, and Astrogranite for cracked urban bases in one coat. Nothing missing between you and a finished force.
Can I play games with this straight away?
Yes. A Combat Patrol is the standard building block of a 40K army, so you're not just collecting — you're ready to play from the off, with room to grow. Bring an opponent, dice and a tape measure.
