This boxed game contains a 112-page Rulebook, a 33-page Getting Started booklet, Dice, Templates, Range Rulers and almost 50 Citadel miniatures, including: a Space Marine Captain, 10 Tactical Space Marines, Five Space Marine Terminators, a Space Marine Dreadnought, an Ork Warboss, 20 Ork Boyz, five Ork Nobz and three Ork Deffkoptas. For existing Warhammer 40,000 players, this set provides a handy, pocket-sized rule book, great for taking along to tournaments and events. The story of this first Great War against Chaos is described in detail elsewhere, so suffice to say that the High Elves were only victorious at the cost of Aenarion's own life. Aenarion was the first of the great Phoenix Kings, and it was he that led the fledgeling High Elf race to arguably their greatest victory, by defeating the first great invasion made by the Chaos Gods. The two armies provided will allow you and a friend to begin playing right away – these finely detailed, plastic, citadel miniatures have been specially designed to allow you to quickly assemble an army ready for your first battle. The roots of the Battle for the Island of Blood stretch back thousands of years, to the time of Aenarion the Defender. An ideal first purchase for anyone new to wargaming or existing gamers who want to begin playing Warhammer 40,000, the enclosed starter booklet has easy-to-follow examples and a step-by-step introduction to the game, while the rulebook contains all of the information you’ll need to play the game proper.
