40k - Space Marines - Ultramarines - Combat Patrol

The Ultramarines are, in many ways, the exemplars of the many Chapters of the Space Marines. Their mighty Primarch, Roboute Guilliman, wrote the Codex Astartes, a tome which lays the foundation of tactics, heraldry, and combat doctrine by which most Adeptus Astartes operate. In battle, they use every resource available to them, deploying specialised units to execute their missions with discipline and efficiency.

If your wish is to protect the Imperium and do it by the book, this box is the perfect way to start a new Ultramarines collection – or expand an existing army – and save money compared to buying the kits individually. The army is led by Chief Librarian Tigurius, the most powerful psyker in the Chapter, and a versatile warrior who excels in any situation. A unit of Bladeguard Veterans acts as his bodyguard. Aggressors offer fire support and aren't afraid to get up close and personal with the foe. A squad of highly mobile Reivers are adept at taking vulnerable objectives and harassing enemy units. The Intercessor Squad are your line troops, ready to fill any gaps and add their firepower to the fight while holding key objectives. These 17 plastic miniatures represent a complete Ultramarines force for use in tight, tactical Combat Patrol games of Warhammer 40,000. The rules for this Combat Patrol are available as a free download on the Warhammer Community website.
