If you're going to start, start big. This is the largest boxed entry into Warhammer 40,000 — a proper introduction with miniatures for two forces, full rules and everything two players need to square off from day one. It's recently been renamed from Ultimate to Combat Patrol, so you may receive either boxing; the contents are what matter, and there's a lot of them.
At a glance
- The largest Warhammer 40,000 starter set
- Miniatures for two opposing forces
- Full rules to learn and keep playing
- Dice, range rulers and gaming accessories
- Supplied as either the 'Ultimate' or 'Combat Patrol' boxing
Best for
- Two players starting the hobby together
- Anyone wanting the most models per pound to begin with
- A flying start with armies for both sides of the table
Split it with a mate and you've both got the makings of an army — or keep the lot and you're two forces up before buying a single extra box.
The most models per pound to launch two armies at once. Grab a set of paints and you can have both forces painted before your first game.
