Two SC boxes are also a good choice if you want to run more than one Onager, otherwise I would skip it.ġ-2) Cult Mech, Skitarii and Imperial Knights are all very small codex (very few models in each) and are intended as a sort of trifecta of codex meant to be played together. For a general build I recommend getting a box or two of Rustalkers/Infiltrators to go along with your SC box. To get an idea of army building you will need to pick up the Codex. I would not be in a rush to hit 1500 points if you are new, and you can always bring in allies to fill your weaknesses. Depends on how you plan on building your Army.

It is this principle by which the Skitarii Rangers hunt the reaches of the galaxy - once the Rangers have been despatched, they will home in on their quarry at a slow but relentless pace.Īt first their victims, ranging from pirate warbands to xenos warhosts, slip the net of Skitarii gunfire easily enough.
In the lean and hungry days of Mankind's hominid ancestry, a hunter would kill far larger prey by tracking it to the point of exhaustion.
