A Daemon Prince prepares to battle an Ordo Malleus Inquisitor and his Grey Knights.

The greatest threat to the Imperium of Man is, and always has been, the followers of Chaos and the foul daemons of the Warp. The Inquisitors of the Ordo Malleus are at war with forces too terrible to comprehend and, together with the holy warriors of the Grey Knights, they must take the light of the Emperor into the darkness. The threat of the daemonic is so great that only these heroic warriors have the necessary skills and knowledge to stand against such diabolical foes.

Collecting, painting, and fielding a brand new army for Warhammer 40,000 may seem a bit daunting at first. Fear not! On the following pages, you'll find a bunch of useful information on how to assemble your models and then give them a basic paint job with a minimal number of colours. There's even a fun scenario you can play using just a few models. This way you can start playing right away as you gradually amass your army.

It's time to get started, so gather your clippers, glue, and paints. Armies don't paint themselves you know!
