If you want to boost your combat spirit, try the Combat Patrol Necrons set – it’s got all that terrifying living-metal goodness. Have you seen it? It looks so cool. Necrons are like the galaxy’s oldest robots – ancient beings awoken from stasis to take over again.

They used to be flesh-and-blood Necrontyr, but they made a terrible bargain with star-gods called C’tan and turned into metal warriors. Now they sleep in Tomb Worlds, only to rise unbelievably powerful and nearly immortal.

It’s so lovely, the whole “undying machine legion” vibe. And that new set of five Skorpekh Destroyers? – Those things are brutal on the tabletop. Plus, the Overlord with that tachyon arrow looks so psychotic. The Combat Patrol box is ideal if you want a solid starter force that still looks epic. You get Necron Warriors, Scarab Swarms, the whole spooky vibe. It’s compact but packs a punch out of the box.

Sounds like the perfect way to dive into a faction known for reanimation protocols and phase-out tricks, right? Going for that eerie green glow, ghostly silver bones. Trying to make them look like they’re stepping out of tombs. Honestly, the lore helps with the vibe, millennia-old dynasties waking to reclaim the galaxy.

It’s such a cool backstory. Necrons have tech so advanced, they can self-repair and teleport wounded troops back to their tombs. It makes them super hard to kill. And that’s the most exciting part: every time you take one out, there’s a chance he just pops back up next turn. It’s like playing whack-a-mole with relentless metal skeletons.

And these necrons give you a mini-army to start those epic redeploys. Plus, painting the C’tan Shard-esque weaponry is so satisfying. kinda god-like. You can also start thinking about painting the Canoptek Doomstalker to look ominous, then maybe picking up Lord units. 

Hobby Tools and Accessories to Maintain the Spirit

Do you know how much you will enjoy the hobby side of Warhammer until you start building and painting your army? Once you get the proper tools like those tiny clippers, a good hobby knife, and a brush that doesn’t shed, it makes such a difference. You stop fighting the process and actually start enjoying it, and it’s weirdly relaxing. You can get a whole setup with a cutting mat, file set, and paints all sorted. It’s like therapy with miniatures.

And when you add cool accessories like a painting handle or a wet palette, it levels everything up. You start taking more pride in your models and feel way more connected to them.

If you love the models and lore, you’ll find the real magic in the games themselves. Setting up the battlefield, rolling the dice, pulling off a crazy comeback, nothing beats that rush. And playing against real people? Way better than just reading rules alone. Plus, meeting others who love the same factions, lore, or strategies makes it even better. You can even join a local group, and it will be awesome seeing everyone’s armies and play styles. The community makes a huge difference. People are so passionate but also helpful. 

And it doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or a veteran, there’s always room for you at the table. It’s not just a game; it’s a shared world.

Build Your Ultimate Command Kit

Okay, real talk, what’s in your go-to kit when you’re heading out to play? Never leave without your tape measure, dice, and datacards. That’s the holy trinity right there. You can also start bringing colored markers for tracking wounds and buffs, and a little tray to keep everything organised. Also, don’t forget snacks. You always need snacks.  And don’t forget your rulebooks or at least a printout of your army list. Saves so much time during setup.

Also, you can buy a small case just for your command stuff. It keeps everything in one place, and you will never feel like you’re scrambling mid-game. That’s the key, being ready. When your kit’s tight, you can focus on the battle and enjoy it.

Whether you’re playing at a shop, a mate’s house, or a tournament, having your ultimate command kit makes you feel in control before the first dice even hits the table.
