Magic: The Gathering Warhammer 40,000 Commander Decks, all four decks

All four Warhammer 40,000 Commander decks: Necron Dynasties, Forces of the Imperium, Tyranid Swarm and The Ruinous Powers.

When Magic: The Gathering first crossed over with Warhammer 40,000 back in October 2022, these four Commander decks became instant fan favorites. Then they got hard to find. Fast.

Good news: on October 8, 2026, Wizards of the Coast confirmed a reprint of the Warhammer 40,000 Commander decks, headed to stores soon. Wizards has called it a small reprint, and it hasn't announced a release date yet.

We're getting decks in. We don't know the exact quantity yet, so the product pages below are up and ready, and we'll open them for sale the moment stock lands. Saga Heralds members get first shot at a special member price.

Meet the Four Decks

Four armies, four commanders, one table. Every card features Warhammer 40,000 art.

Mono-Black

Necron Dynasties

Commander: Szarekh, the Silent King

The ancient Necron dynasties rise from their tomb worlds. If you love a single-color deck with a clear identity, this is the one to grab.

White-Blue-Black

Forces of the Imperium

Commander: Inquisitor Greyfax

Space Marines and the might of the Imperium of Man. A three-color army for players who want to defend humanity's crumbling empire.

Green-Blue-Red

Tyranid Swarm

Commander: The Swarmlord

The Great Devourer is hungry. A creature-heavy deck that grows and grows until it overruns the table.

View Tyranid Swarm →

Blue-Black-Red

The Ruinous Powers

Commander: Abaddon the Despoiler

Chaos, chaos, chaos. Abaddon gives cascade to spells based on how much life your opponents lost this turn, so you never quite know what free spell is coming next.
