Warhammer 40,000 fans everywhere are preparing for a new edition that will evolve and expand the lore, miniatures and gaming experience.  As our most popular setting and gaming system, a Warhammer 40,000 edition launch provides a community with one of the most exciting and memorable product releases.

The 23 brand new push-fit Space Marines in the box are usable by any Space Marines collector and include updates to some classic kits featuring some new weapon options and armour styles, alongside a long awaited update to the classic Land Speeder.

The 38 brand new push-fit Orks represent a great range refresh for the Orks, updating some already existing units and some brand new unit types never before seen, such as the Bigboss and the Dakkarig.

The Operation Imperator lore book is exclusive to the Armageddon box set, this book focuses on all of the latest lore developments, the 114-page guide sets up the ongoing conflict across Armageddon, including new lore, art, maps and more.

The new edition Core Rules Booklet is in the A5 softcover format – making it a firm favourite for those travelling to play, as well as being a standalone book, making it more easily referenced during play.

The brand new Dominatus Campaign Deck allows players to link their games of Warhammer 40,000 together into a grand campaign, making this the easiest way ever to set up a Warhammer 40,000 campaign.
