Next week, a host of new ways to get started with Warhammer 40K, including two new starter sets, and some get started painting kits.

The new edition of Warhammer 40K thunders in like a lion, and if you’ve been wanting to get started with 40K, now’s the perfect chance. Because as part of next week’s pre-orders, there are four different kits you can pick up if you want to get started. There’s a Starter Set, an Introductory Set, and two different “Getting Started” sets. What’s the difference? Let’s check ’em out.

40K Starter Sets, Next Week

The Warhammer 40K Starter Set, not to be confused with the Introductory Set, comes with the Core Rulebook, two different Combat Patrol armies, in this case Orks and Space Marines, as well as some terrain, battlefield boards, dice, rulers, and a starter set handbook to get you and your friend started down a road that ends with a garage full of unpainted, unassembled plastic you’ll get to one day. But first, you have to build the shiniest newest thing.

The Warhammer 40K Introductory Set, on the other hand, comes with just a taste of everything. You still get Orks vs. Marines, but on a much smaller scale, and with some card terrain and a paint set and dice and a ruler. Just enough to get you playing.

If what you’re into is more on the painting side of things, there’s the Getting Starter Sets, not to be confused with the Starter Set or Introductory Set. In the Warhammer 40K Getting Started set, you’ll find a full Combat Patrol with eleven paints, a brush, and a handy booklet to tell you about the plastic guys you just got. It comes in Space Marines.

Or you can pick up an Ork Getting Starter Set if you’ve got good taste.

And if that doesn’t whet your whistle enough, there’s new paints, and more coming. Just check your FLGS.

All this, next week!
