How it performs in match-ups
- Genestealer Cults: Fits well into most lists and supports objective play and pressure.
- Add-ons: We recommend adding units that cover weaknesses (anti-tank, screening, speed).
- Match-up summary: Performs best when playing objectives and choosing trades wisely. Against hordes, keep distance and clear units gradually. Against elites, focus fire/attacks on key threats. Against vehicles, manage anti-tank and focus targets one by one.

| Synergy | Combine with buffs/auras from leaders – even small bonuses matter. |
