Warhammer 40K: Introductory Set Review

boardgamequest.com:

Warhammer 40K: Introductory Set is an excellent gateway game for new players to follow detailed easy to follow instructions to build, paint, and play to learn basic rules of the Leviathan 10th Edition rule set.

You might recall that I highlighted in my Combat Arena: Clash of Champions review that there are serious gamers who spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars to collect, build, paint, and play their Warhammer armies and this has become a life-style for them. This can be intimidating for new gamers who have not been exposed to this level of involvement in the Warhammer universes.

However lately, Games Workshop has been releasing new gateway games to attract new gamers and pique their interest. The release of the Warhammer 40K Leviathan set (10th Edition) this year is a large box set with a parallel price tag. If you’re looking to see if 40K is for you but don’t want to shell out 200 bucks then you’re in luck. Read on!

Today we are taking a look at that Warhammer 40K: Introductory Set from Games Workshop. This tactical 10th Edition game start-up set that pits two squads (Space Marine & Tyranids) against each other and is designed for 2 players and playtime is 30-60 minutes.

The Warhammer 40K: Introductory Set rule book outlines what and how to use the contents included within this set in the following steps.

Introduction: A short overview of the 40K universe and Warhammer hobby.

Build: This Introductory Set comes with 5 Space Marines and 11 Tyranid miniatures and includes rules for how to remove these from sprues & build each individual one included.
