Key Features:

  • A mobile hunting force of Genestealer Cult miniatures, ideal for starting or expanding an army.
  • A complete Combat Patrol force of 17 multipart plastic miniatures.
  • Save money compared to buying the contents individually.

Genestealer Cults armies outmanoeuvre their foes with infiltration, clawed horrors and grimy militia alike, squirming through sewers and pipe networks to reach their prey. They prepare ambush sites and kill zones, flotillas of repurposed vehicles and dirtcycles roaring from obscured flanks to crush their reeling enemies.

Praise the Four-armed Emperor with Combat Patrol: Genestealer Cults. This loaded box includes a blisteringly fast force, led by a swift and deadly Jackal Alphus, riding at the head of a group of Atalan Jackals. The armour and firepower of an Achilles Ridgerunner drives up in support, whilst a unit of thrashing Hybrid Metamorphs scuttles forward with preternatural speed.

This box also allows you to save money compared to buying each kit individually, making it an excellent way to start your army or expand an existing collection. These miniatures can also be used as a complete Genestealer Cult army for use in Combat Patrol games of Warhammer 40,000 – the rules for this Combat Patrol are available as a free download on the Warhammer Community website.

This set includes the following 17 multipart plastic models:

– 1x Jackal Alphus
– 1x Achilles Ridgerunner
– 5x Atalan Jackals
– 10x Hybrid Metamorphs (which can alternatively be built as Acolyte Hybrids)

All models come with their appropriate bases. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.

Games Workshop have two broad methods for painting their models. Both are entirely viable options, though have significant differences in the paints required (detailed below). You can find all of the required paints in the 'recommended paint' section below, whether you simply want to get it out onto the tabletop ASAP (i.e. 'Battle Ready'), or want to take your time and make it a masterpiece (i.e. 'Parade Ready'):

1. Classic Method - uses acrylic paints to build layers of colour and depth. Usually topped off with a shade paint to really make the shadows pop. Probably the most beginner friendly method as mistakes are often easy to fix.

2. Contast Method - uses ink-like contrast painsts which sink into recesses, providing depth in highlights and shadows with a single layer of paint. It can take some practise to get this method to look great, but it's highly satisfying when it does work. Less forgiving when mistakes happen, though arguably the quicker method of the two options.
