Warhammer 40,000 Introductory Set

Warhammer 40,000 – Introductory Set – 40-04

The Warhammer 40,000 Introductory Set is an accessible first step into the 41st millennium. In this compact starter box, genetically enhanced Space Marines take on brutal Orks, with push-fit miniatures, paints, gaming accessories, and clear guides to start building, painting, and playing right away.

Everything to discover the hobby

This set is designed for new players who want to try Warhammer 40,000 without having to immediately collect separate rules, paints, or accessories. The box includes a handy 48-page softcover handbook explaining the setting, the Space Marines, the Orks, how to build and paint your models, and simple introductory rules to play your first battles.

The scale is deliberately manageable: a small group of Space Marines against a compact Ork force. This allows you to quickly build, paint, and field your first models.

Space Marines against Orks

The Space Marines in this set are led by a Lieutenant and supported by 5 Intercessors. They represent the elite of the Imperium: well-armored, disciplined, and equipped with reliable weapons.

On the other side are an Ork Nob and 5 Ork Boyz, perfectly showcasing the raw power and chaotic energy of the Orks. This matchup is ideal for clearly learning the basics of movement, shooting, fighting, and positioning.

Build, paint, and play

The miniatures are push-fit and can be assembled without plastic glue. The Space Marines are molded in blue plastic and the Orks in green plastic, making both sides easily recognizable from the start. Each miniature comes with a sculpted base, so your models immediately have a nice foundation.

With the included Warhammer Colour Starter Brush and six 12ml paint pots, you can start painting right away. The double-sided playing mat, punch-out card terrain, range ruler, and dice give you everything you need to play the first introductory battles.

Painting fun for beginners

The Space Marines are ideal for practicing power armor, metal weapons, gold details, and simple highlights. The Orks, on the other hand, offer room for green skin, brown clothing, teeth, weapons, and rough details. The paint selection is practically chosen for both factions, with colors for armor, skin, leather, metal, and accents.

For aspiring hobbyists, this is a great way to discover different painting techniques without immediately needing a large paint collection.
