The Horus Heresy: Legiones Astartes: Combat Force
Legiones Astartes: Combat Force captures the core identity of Space Marine armies in The Horus Heresy – disciplined infantry, heavy weapons, armoured support, and a powerful war machine that immediately stands out on the tabletop. If you want to start a new Legion or reinforce an existing force with highly usable units, this box gives you a strong and convincing foundation.
The Horus Heresy: Legiones Astartes: Combat Force
- An excellent starting point for a Legiones Astartes army in Horus Heresy
- A balanced mix of infantry, heavy firepower, and transport support
- An appealing box for gaming, collecting, and painting iconic legionaries
What this box represents
This set is built as a versatile core for a Legiones Astartes army. It combines standard legionaries, heavy support, an armoured transport, and a dreadnought, so it feels like a real expeditionary force rather than a random selection of models. On the table, it looks cohesive, thematic, and unmistakably Horus Heresy.
How it fits into an army
Combat Force works well as a first major purchase for a new army and also as a smart expansion for an existing Legion. The infantry holds ground and handles core battlefield tasks, heavier weapons add ranged threat, the Rhino improves mobility, and the Leviathan Dreadnought brings both presence and pressure.
Why this box makes sense
- It offers a balanced mix of models that works well in different army-building directions
- It includes iconic units that look great both on the tabletop and in a display collection
- It is a highly practical choice for players who want to build a thematic Legion core quickly
The kind of presence it brings to the table
- Against elite armies: The box feels dependable thanks to its mix of versatile infantry and heavier support, so it does not struggle to stay relevant against tougher opponents.
- Against larger forces: With several battlefield roles covered, it gives you more ways to react, hold space, and keep pressure where it matters.
- Overall battlefield character: This Combat Force is not one-dimensional. It suits players who want a stable core, a strong visual identity, and room to expand their Legion in their own preferred direction.
