Bring the Uprising to the Table
Somewhere beneath the surface, the cult grows. Hidden in plain sight among miners, labourers, and underhive workers, the Genestealer Cults build toward one sacred moment — the day they rise and tear the Imperium apart from within. This Combat Patrol box puts that uprising in your hands: a compact, ready-to-build force of fanatics and hybrids that hits hard, moves fast, and rewards aggressive, close-range play. Whether you're planting your first flag in the 40K hobby or expanding an existing brood, this is a strong place to start.
What's in the Box
This Combat Patrol contains 17 multipart plastic miniatures representing the Genestealer Cults faction for Warhammer 40,000. The force is built around the cult's signature mix of fanatical human hybrids and their alien overlords — a blend of ranged ambush units and terrifying close-combat threats. As a Combat Patrol box, this set is designed for the smaller-format Combat Patrol game mode, giving you a legal, balanced force right out of the box. Models are multipart plastic, requiring assembly with plastic glue, and are supplied unpainted. Base sizes are included. All 17 miniatures offer the hobbyist genuine variety in both unit type and painting opportunity — from grimy industrial cultists to chitinous, alien-touched monstrosities.
Who Should Pick This Up
The Genestealer Cults are one of the most visually distinctive factions in all of Warhammer 40,000 — a painter's dream for anyone drawn to corrupted human aesthetics, industrial grime, and unsettling alien biology. New hobbyists ready to commit to a full faction will find this Combat Patrol a cost-effective entry into the Cults. Experienced players can use it to build out a legal Combat Patrol force or add unit variety to a growing brood. Assembly requires plastic glue and clippers — tools not included — so first-time hobbyists will want to pair this with a basic hobby toolkit. Paints and brushes are sold separately. For gift buyers: this is a strong choice for the 40K player who has chosen their allegiance and is ready to grow their army.
