Product detailed description
| Battlefield Role | Unique Features | Difficulty | Player Tip |
|---|---|---|---|
| A flexible army element for applying pressure on objectives and supporting your main strategy. | A good balance of mobility/durability/firepower or melee (depending on build) and strong faction synergy potential. | Medium – you gain the most from proper positioning and timing. | Plan the first two turns ahead: where you will score and how you prepare safe positions. |
Sydonian Skatros
Sydonian Skatros is a set that expands your army with a strong gameplay element. In practice, it adds pressure on your opponent, helps with objective control, and gives you new tactical options.

Positioning and role on the table
Stay in cover, play objectives, and plan your movement to maintain pressure without unnecessary losses.
Why you want it in your army
- Instantly strengthens your army in-game
- Great expansion after a Starter/Combat Patrol

How it performs in match-ups
- Adeptus Mechanicus: Fits well into most builds and supports both objective play and pressure.
- Add-ons: We recommend adding units that cover weaknesses (anti-tank, screening, speed).
- Match-up summary: Works best when playing objectives and trading efficiently. Against hordes, keep distance and clear units gradually; against elites, focus fire/attacks on key threats; against vehicles, ensure anti-tank and focus one target at a time.
