The Genestealer Cults have a brand new Battleforce nonetheless up for Pre-order together with their Fight Patrol. What kind of a deal are they?
In the event you’re trying to begin a brand new Genestealer Cult military then now’s a extremely good time to do this. The Battleforce remains to be at present obtainable for pre-order and the Fight Patrol is just too. Now, finally the Battleforce goes away however the Fight Patrol is sticking round. However that received us questioning with the brand new worth hikes what kind of offers would every of those work out to. So, let’s do some math and discover out.
Battleforce: Genestealer Cults – Biosanctic Broodsurge $215
1x Benefictus $35*
10x Purestrain Genestealers $58
Whole Particular person MSRP: $361*
Whole Financial savings: $146
There’s one small caveat right here in that the Benefictus isn’t technically out but. I’m estimating the value based mostly off the various different Genestealer Cults characters which might be out for the military. All-in it seems to be like whole lot of financial savings as properly. As a Battleforce this field has a diverse and numerous set of items inside. Not solely do you get the Benefictus within the field (which, once more, not out but) however you additionally get two Goliath Vans/Rockgrinders. With the Genestealers and Aberants you’ve received exhausting hitting shut fight choices as properly. Rounded out with the Neophyte Hybrids and it’s a fantastic core for a brand new military or assortment.
Simply to reiterate, this one is a restricted product. It’s solely obtainable whereas shares final so if you wish to get one you undoubtedly need to get on that sooner somewhat than later.
Now, let’s speak concerning the Fight Patrol as a result of that’s sticking round for lots longer.

Whole Particular person MSRP: $212.50
Whole Financial savings: $44.50
This Fight Patrol’s financial savings isn’t as drastic because the Battleforce nevertheless it’s nonetheless basically “purchase all items and get the Character (near) free.” This field additionally has a pair issues going for it. First up, it’s received a little bit of a spotlight for while you’re simply utilizing these choices in Fight Patrol video games: pace. This appears like a really fast-paced set of choices within the field. The one exception is the Hybrid Metamorphs however they will maintain their very own.
The second factor this field has going for it’s that none of those items are the identical ones within the Battleforce. You possibly can fairly actually purchase each and have an enormous bounce begin on a Genestealer Cult assortment — and a really respectable core of items to truly construct a military out of. The one concern I can see is that a military of *simply* the Battleforce and Fight Patrol will lack any actual focus. It’s lots of totally different items however you may want to determine your individual play model and begin to lean into that for increasing.
Nevertheless you need to slice it each the Battleforce and the Fight Patrols are cheaper than shopping for the items individually. If you wish to get in whereas it’s low-cost(er) and simple snag these bins whilst you can.
Additionally don’t neglect that Genestealer Cults can be utilized in Necromunda. Simply tossing that on the market.
