This year's 40K Battleforce lineup spans seven factions, from the Imperium's finest to the forces of Chaos and the xenos menace. Each box is themed around a specific playstyle — close-quarters melee, mechanized assault, psychic horrors, or rapid vehicle rushes — and includes enough units to field a solid core army or reinforce an existing collection.
Indomitus Task Force
A well-rounded Space Marines Battleforce built for flexibility. You can engage at range with Intercessors or push forward with Assault Intercessors and Terminators, all backed by a Redemptor Dreadnought and led by a Captain in Terminator Armour and Chaplain.
Contents: Captain in Terminator Armour, Chaplain, Redemptor Dreadnought, 5 Terminators, 5 Assault Intercessors, 10 Intercessors.
Champions of Fenris
Logan Grimnar himself leads this warband, joined by his personal champion Arjac Rockfist and a full retinue of Wolf Guard Terminators. This is a box for players who want their sagas written in close combat.
Contents: Logan Grimnar, Arjac Rockfist, 15 Wolf Guard Terminators.
Angelus Assault Force
Commander Dante leads an assault force built around descending into the heart of enemy lines and wreaking havoc. A Death Company Brutalis Dreadnought, Sanguinary Guard, and Death Company Marines with Jump Packs make this a devastating melee-focused force.
Contents: Commander Dante, Blood Angels Chaplain with Jump Pack, Death Company Brutalis Dreadnought, 3 Sanguinary Guard, 5 Death Company Marines with Jump Packs, Blood Angels Upgrade Frame.
Helhunt Lance
A towering Knight Ruinator (which can alternatively be built as a Knight Abominant, Knight Rampager, or Knight Desecrator) leads a retinue of four War Dog Stalkers. Destruction, desecration, and total devastation — in a box.
Contents: Knight Ruinator (build options: Knight Abominant, Knight Rampager, Knight Desecrator), 4 War Dog Stalkers (build options: War Dog Brigands, War Dog Karnivores).
Cult of Destruction
Iron Warriors and Daemon Engine enthusiasts, this one's for you. A hulking Defiler backed by Obliterators, Havocs, and a Warpsmith brings the kind of firepower that scours battlefields clean.
Contents: Warpsmith, Defiler, Venomcrawler, 2 Obliterators, 5 Havocs, 3 Mutilators.
Armoured Blitzmob
Vehicular mayhem. A Warboss in Mega Armour and three Meganobz loaded into a Gunwagon, backed by a Deff Dread and a mob of Ork Boyz. This is a battering ram in a box.
Contents: Warboss in Mega Armour, Battlewagon (build option: Gunwagon), Deff Dread, 3 Meganobz, 10 Ork Boyz.
Disciples of the Nekrosor
Nekrosor Ammentar and a looming C'tan Shard of the Nightbringer lead a force focused on spreading madness and death. Ophydian Destroyers, a Canoptek Doomstalker, Necron Warriors, and Canoptek Scarab Swarms round out the box.
Contents: C'tan Shard of the Nightbringer, Nekrosor Ammentar, 3 Ophydian Destroyers, Canoptek Doomstalker, 10 Necron Warriors, 3 Canoptek Scarab Swarms.
