About This Edition:
The fourth book in the Arks of Omen series matches the aesthetics of the rest of the series, ensuring your collection will look incredible on the shelves – including a prominent “IV” mark on the spine. It’s appointed with the same style of exclusive art on a soft-touch cover, with silver foil detailing, printed page edges, and a black ribbon bookmark.
Boarding Patrol: Aeldari $130
The Aeldari were once the rulers of the galaxy, and now wander the galaxy aboard nomadic craftworlds and Corsair fleets. The warriors of this ancient species fight with superlative skill, boarding intruding craft and ill-omened space hulks to protect what remains of their fallen empire.
Boarding Patrol: Aeldari provides a skilled force of elite warriors, perfectly suited to slicing enemies apart in games of Warhammer 40,000 – especially in the dense and deadly Boarding Action missions detailed in the Arks of Omen series – and will save you money compared to buying the kits individually.
The legendary Phoenix Lord Jain Zar leads the raiding party, commanding a squad of her Howling Banshees. Armed with elegant power blades and a paralysing scream, these superlative melee fighters are backed up by deadly Corsairs – piratical Aeldari well accustomed to fighting in the close confines of a starship, armed with a versatile array of exotic weaponry.
This set includes the following:
– 1x Jain Zar
– 5x Howling Banshees, with 1x Banshee shrine icon marker
– 20x Corsair Voidscarred, which can alternatively be built as Corsair Voidreavers
This box can be used to assemble a variety of units – the recommended build for Boarding Action games is Jain Zar, five Howling Banshees, 10 Corsair Voidreavers, and 10 Corsair Voidscarred, each split into five-model squads.
All models are supplied with their appropriate bases. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
Rules for playing Boarding Action games of Warhammer 40,000 can be found in the Arks of Omen: Abaddon supplement. Additional rules for Aeldari Boarding Patrols can be found in Arks of Omen: Farsight.
Boarding Patrol: Orks $140
Orks love a good krumpin’, and romp across the stars in hurtling roks to find a proper fight. Given the quality of Ork navigation and engineering, it’s not uncommon for these belligerent greenskins to wind up stranded on a space hulk – or crash straight into an enemy ship, where they promptly flood the gangways and cargo bays in search of fresh opponents to smash and potential loot to claim.
Boarding Patrol: Orks provides a brutal and kunnin’ force, perfectly suited to crushing ‘oomies and aliens alike in games of Warhammer 40,000 – especially in the dense and deadly Boarding Action missions detailed in the Arks of Omen series – and will save you money compared to buying the kits individually.
Boss Snikrot leads this krew – a murderous ghost obsessed with Kommando warfare – by the time his terrified foes realise he is upon them, the Boss and his band of Kommandos are already opening their throats. Backing these speshul forces up are a mob of Beast Snagga Boyz who smash through corridors in search of a good hunt, and a band of Flash Gitz – mercenaries who travel the galaxy flaunting their flashy kit.
This set includes the following:
– 1x Boss Snikrot
– 10x Kommandos, plus 1x Bomb Squig and 1x Distraction Grot
– 10x Beast Snagga Boyz
– 5x Flash Gitz
– 2x Ork Clans Transfer Sheets, containing a total of 876 decals

Boarding Patrol: Drukhari $115
The depraved Drukhari are masterful marauders, despatching raiding parties to hunt down prisoners for the fighting pits, slaves to serve in their Dark City, or simply victims whose pain will satisfy their terrible soul-hunger. The Wych Cults of Commorragh often board hapless vessels and drifting space hulks in search of mortal plunder, turning claustrophic corridors into blood-slick arenas of death.
Boarding Patrol: Drukhari provides a melee-focused force of agile gladiators, perfectly suited to tearing enemies asunder in games of Warhammer 40,000 – especially in the dense and deadly Boarding Action missions detailed in the Arks of Omen series – and will save you money compared to buying the kits individually.
The raiding party is led by a Succubus, a supremely skilled duellist and cruel champion of the Wych Cults. The many Wyches they lead are skilled murderers in their own right, combining athleticism and martial skills with an assortment of toxic weapons. A squad of Incubi lends a heavier hand, sweeping through corridors using massive blades wielded with a dedication to the killing arts.
This set includes the following:
– 1x Succubus
– 5x Incubi, with 1x Incubus shrine icon marker
– 20x Wyches
This box can be used to assemble a variety of units – the recommended build for Boarding Action games is a Succubus, five Incubi, and two 10-model units of Wyches, each split into a further two squads.

Boarding Patrol: Grey Knights $115
The Grey Knights are perhaps the most elite and secretive Chapter of the Adeptus Astartes, forged as the Imperium’s greatest weapon against the dangers of the warp. In the Grey Knights’ sequestered fortress on the moon of Titan, psykers and sages sift through omens of coming daemonic incursions – and despatch strike forces of daemon-hunting Space Marines, each gifted with well-honed psychic abilities. Aboard space hulks infested with unnatural entities, or voidcraft corrupted by their passage through the warp, the Grey Knights are an unstoppable force.
Boarding Patrol: Grey Knights provides a balanced force of Space Marines infantry, perfectly suited to gunning and cutting down foes in games of Warhammer 40,000 – especially in the dense and deadly Boarding Action missions detailed in the Arks of Omen series – and will save you money compared to buying the kits individually.
Lead from the front with the legendary Castellan Crowe, armed with the infamous Black Blade of Antwyr – ideal for taking out foes in the confines of an enemy vessel. He’s joined at close quarters by 10 Grey Knights clad in power armour, armed with storm bolters, force weapons, and a variety of special weapons, who split into squads of five for navigating tight passageways. A squad of five Grey Knights Terminators ward off breachers with their armoured bulk and heavy firepower, bringing death to the close-quarters of a spaceship’s corridors.

Boarding Patrol: T’au Empire $130
The T’au are a dynamic species of technologically advanced aliens whose empire is spreading rapidly across the stars. Aboard sleek ships piloted by their void-dwelling Air Caste, the T’au explore the galaxy and seek to unite every sentient being for the Greater Good. In the breakaway colonies of the Farsight Enclaves, the legendary Commander Farsight himself ventures aboard drifting space hulks, cleansing them of threats to his people.
Boarding Patrol: T’au Empire provides mobile and heavily armoured infantry, perfectly suited to overwhelming foes in games of Warhammer 40,000 – especially in the dense and deadly Boarding Action missions detailed in the Arks of Omen series – and will save you money compared to buying the kits individually.
The divisive and enigmatic Commander Farsight stands at the head of this assault, blasting through opponents in a blur of blade strikes and blazing fire in search of his prize. Behind him stomp three sleek XV8 Crisis Battlesuits – the ultimate balance of firepower, speed and resilience – and ten Breachers, Fire Warriors who use close-range, high-powered pulse blasters to clear the confined corridors of a space hulk.
This set includes the following:
– 1x Commander Farsight
– 3x XV8 Crisis Battlesuits, which can alternatively be built as Crisis Bodyguards

Boarding Patrol: Necrons $130
The Necrons are amongst the most ancient and powerful races in the galaxy. Armoured bodies of living metal, they advance in inexorable lockstep upon their terrified foes, armed with weapons that unleash the fundamental energies of the cosmos. Flickering portals beam Necrons aboard enemy vessels from across impossible interstellar gulfs, allowing these deathly legions to cleanse and conquer the primitive craft of lesser civilisations.
Boarding Patrol: Necrons provides a balanced force of Necron infantry, perfectly suited to blasting and slicing foes apart in games of Warhammer 40,000 – especially in the dense and deadly Boarding Action missions detailed in the Arks of Omen series – and will save you money compared to buying the kits individually.
Whip through tangled corridors with three Ophydian Destroyers – frightening close combat fighters, supported by a Canoptek Plasmacyte. In their wake follow 10 Necron Warriors, armed with a selection of deadly gauss weaponry to flay the skin from living targets or blast apart enemy machinery, while 10 Lychguard provide even more melee ability, armed with either a hyperphase sword or warscythe – both units splitting neatly into squads of five for navigating tight passageways.

Arks of Omen: Farsight $60
At the end of a long and bloody road, the armies of the Farsight Enclaves stand poised to secure final victory over the Ork hordes. As Commander Farsight’s audacious attack reaches a critical stage, an Ark of Omen and its attendant Balefleet erupt from the warp to shatter the balance of the conflict.
Thrown into a desperate fight for survival amidst a furious three-way war, the T’au are driven to take desperate measures. Their fighting retreat sees them forced to make planetfall on a world that O’Shovah vowed never to set foot upon again. With all other options exhausted, and foes closing in on all sides, the T’au begin a hit-and-run battle amongst the lifeless wastes and eerie ruins of Arthas Moloch itself.
Entangled by the galactic machinations of Vashtorr the Arkifane and his unholy servants, overrun by bellowing greenskin hordes and threatened by dark and insidious powers from beyond the veil, O’Shovah may face his final doom. Will aid reach him in time? Will the servants of the Dark Gods secure their diabolical prize? Or will this conflict reach an altogether darker and stranger end?
