Boarding Patrols Inbound for Genestealer Cults, Death Guard

The Deathwatch Veterans have been my favorite source of Astartes special weapons and gimmicks for years. But you should always be looking at a kit as a collection of pieces and potential, rather than something to build one squad, or one vehicle. And, according to GW’s own tips, you’re probably going to want some more bodies on the field or some other way to do consistent damage via mortal wounds. With the way line of sight works and close distances, I think the flamer options could be super effective in Boarding Actions.I also felt that in a whole force of high-speed operator-ass types, a sprinkle of classic Astarte style is still warranted. Rules for playing Boarding Action games of Warhammer 40,000 can be found in the Arks of Omen: Abaddonsupplement. Unfortunately, I am confined by petty constructs like money and capacity to deal with shit, so I always start with list-building to tighten my horizons. CHAOS: RHINO 43-11 Chaos Rhinos are invaluable transport vehicles that allow you to deliver your units to the heart of battle. If you’ve been living away from the bullhorn, Boarding Actions are the small-format 40K ruleset from Arks of Omen focusing on infantry and close-quarters combat.

While the small scale of Boarding Actions restricts many factions to a handful of models, the Astra Militarum have no trouble flooding the board with bodies. I’ve never built a kit entirely in line with the instructions, and my head is always swimming with ideas and lore that start brilliantly and end in my unpainted pile. Based on the few tips we know about Boarding Actions so far, I would say that the Marine Box is poised to be a surprisingly effective force — with the right back-up. It’s a shame that these boxes are limited run, but that’s all the more reason to jump on them quickly.

This Balefleet Battleforce has 10 Possessed, 5 Chaos Space Marine Terminators, a Heldrake, and a new Daemon Prince to lead them all. Making every model special to me is important, because they spend the majority of their time on my display shelf. Genestealers famously love to hitch rides on space hulks – perennial enemies of the Space Marine Terminators who have to go to the trouble of clearing them out. The Warmaster himself leads a squad of 10 Legionaries – complete with a Kill Team upgrade sprue that adds numerous options for Boarding Actions mayhem, like the sorcerous balefire tome and butchering heavy chainaxe – with 20 fanatical Chaos Cultists tagging along to flood the corridors as meatshields.
