Starter Products

Products for new beginners

 

There are now many great ways for new customers to get started in the hobby. If fact there
are so many it can be confusing for staff to know which to recommend, so here’s a quick
rundown on what’s available.

We have some great game sets that are easily accessible for new customers, including:

Warhammer Underworlds
Blood Bowl
Warhammer Quest Blackstone Fortress
Age of Sigmar: Warcry
Warhgammer 40,000: Kill Team

Our main Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar offer includes a great range of gaming entry products at multiple price points, including:

Warhammer 40,000: Command, Elite and Recruit sets
Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Soul Wars, Tempest of Souls and Soul Strike
Each of these offers an increasing level of value between the price points

In addition there is a range of painting entry products including:

Stormcast Eternals / Nighthaunts + Paint Sets plus the Assault Intercessors / Necrons + Paint Sets: which include miniatures and paints for anyone to have their first go at painting.
40K Paint and Tools plus the Warhammer Age of Sigmar Paints and Tools: which are the ideal purchase to go with gaming products.
Low price point places to start:

The booklets:

Getting Started with Warhammer 40,000 and Getting Started with Age of
Sigmar, which  show the hobby and backgrounds of Warhammer, and have a miniature on the front!
Not forgetting the miniature game; Middle Earth’s The Lord of the Rings Battle of Pelennor
Fields, a great starting box for those The Lords of the Rings enthusiasts.

When recommending new products for new customers, the complexity of the craft
(modelling/painting) aspect and the game (rules/mechanics) aspects is an important
consideration. The diagram in the Starter Product Guide helps you to pick the product you feel most appropriate to your
individual customer’s needs.
