This index covers the modern Warhammer 40,000 range. Horus Heresy forces have their own unit index and a setting hub.
Elites · InfantryIndomitor Kill TeamDeathwatchA kill team of Primaris veterans whose disciplined firepower and heavy armour crush the xenos at close quarters.
Troops · Infantry SquadInfantry SquadAstra MilitarumThe Infantry Squad is the fundamental building block of the Astra Militarum, ten ordinary men and women armed with lasguns and led by a bellowing sergeant. Multiplied across a thousand worlds into an ocean of soldiery, these squads are the ground on which the Imperium's wars are truly won, lost, and paid for in blood.
HQ · Infantry CharacterInfernal MasterThousand SonsAn Infernal Master is a sorcerer-lord of the Thousand Sons versed in the darkest and most malign disciplines of the arcane, a specialist in curses, hexes and the sapping of an enemy's will. Where other sorcerers hurl fire, the Infernal Master works subtler ruin, unravelling minds, weakening resolve and binding daemons to lethal purpose. A figure of cold, calculating menace, he turns the psychic battlefield itself into a weapon, dooming his foes before a single shot is fired.
Troops · InfantryInfractorsEmperor's ChildrenInfractors are aggressive assault troops who breach enemy lines with brutal, headlong ferocity. Chosen from among the Legion's most impatient and violent warriors, they hurl themselves into close quarters where the sensations of the melee run hottest. Where the Tormentors hold and torment, the Infractors shatter and overwhelm, craving the visceral rush of the charge.
HQ · Infantry CharacterInquisitorImperial AgentsAn Inquisitor is the living embodiment of the Emperor's authority, a figure whose word can raise armies or damn worlds. Armed with rare and terrible wargear and accompanied by a hand-picked retinue, they lead from the heart of the fight, hunting the daemon, the heretic, and the alien wherever it hides. Each is unique, shaped by their Ordo, their philosophy, and the countless horrors they have witnessed.
Troops · InfantryIntercessor SquadSpace MarinesBred from the Primaris gene-seed advances, Intercessor Squads form the resilient, adaptable backbone of the modern Adeptus Astartes battle line.
Elites · InfantryIronkinLeagues of VotannThe Ironkin are the mechanical citizens of the Leagues, self-aware machine intelligences forged by the Votann Ancestor Cores rather than born from the cloning-crucibles. Sharing the ancestry and the making of their flesh-and-blood cousins, they are counted full and equal members of Kin society, and on the battlefield they serve as tireless, heavily armoured shock troops.
Heavy Support · WalkerIronstrider BallistariiAdeptus MechanicusThe Ironstrider Ballistarii is a single-rider war-walker of the forge worlds, a striding weapons platform built upon the ubiquitous Ironstrider chassis. Bonded to his mount through cortical implants, the Skitarius rider guides his machine on long, loping legs while its heavy guns hunt for armour and monstrous prey. Fast, stable and deadly at range, the Ballistarii are the mobile gun-line with which the Mechanicus shatters the enemy's strongest engines.
Troops · InfantryJakhalsWorld EatersJakhals are the mortal cultists who march to war alongside the World Eaters, feral gangers and blood-worshippers who venerate the Legion as living gods of slaughter. Armed with crude blades and improvised weapons, they throw themselves at the enemy in howling packs, seeking to prove their devotion to Khorne in a frenzy of self-sacrificial violence.
Lords of War · BattlesuitKV128 StormsurgeT'au EmpireThe KV128 Stormsurge is a towering ballistic suit that anchors itself to the earth and unleashes a deluge of firepower fit to level a fortress.
Troops · InfantryKabalite WarriorsDrukhariKabalite Warriors form the disciplined backbone of every Kabal's raiding force, sweeping onto the battlefield to unleash storms of poisoned splinter fire before descending to seize captives. Clad in sculpted armoured bodygloves and armed with virulent toxin weapons, they combine cold precision with a predator's cruelty. They are the rank and file of Commorragh's armadas, yet even the lowliest among them is a lethal killer and a devout believer in the harvest of suffering.
Heavy Support · InfantryKakophoniEmperor's ChildrenThe Kakophoni are elite sound-warriors who wield the most powerful sonic armaments in the Legion's arsenal, capable of levelling fortifications and shredding entire formations with a single terrible chord. Regarded as master musicians of destruction, they form the thunderous core of many Emperor's Children hosts, unleashing walls of scything noise that herald doom long before the killing begins.
Elites · Storm TroopersKasrkinAstra MilitarumThe Kasrkin are the elite of peerless Cadia, storm troopers drawn from the very best of an already unmatched soldiery. Clad in carapace armour and wielding hot-shot lasguns, they undertake the missions ordinary Guardsmen cannot: infiltration, demolition, and cold-blooded slaughter in the deadliest corners of the war.
Heavy Support · WalkerKastelan RobotsAdeptus MechanicusKastelan Robots are towering automata of ancient design, hulking war-constructs guided not by living pilots but by rudimentary machine intelligences overseen by an attendant Cybernetica Datasmith. Capable of unleashing storms of firepower or wading into melee to tear enemies limb from limb, they shift their behaviour according to the protocols their handler invokes. Relics of a bygone age of artificial minds, they are as revered as they are feared.
Heavy Support · InfantryKataphron BreachersAdeptus MechanicusHeavily armoured cyborg servitors that grind forward as a slow, unstoppable wall of siege firepower.
Heavy Support · InfantryKataphron DestroyersAdeptus MechanicusKataphron Destroyers are heavy battle-servitors, their torsos fused to treaded chassis and their bodies rebuilt into mobile weapons platforms bristling with heavy firepower. Armed with plasma culverins or grav weapons of fearsome potency, they trundle forward as living artillery, mind-wiped and utterly obedient to the imperatives of their Tech-Priest masters. Massively armoured and pitiless, they exist for a single purpose: to obliterate whatever their controllers designate.
Elites · Infantry CharacterKelermorphGenestealer CultsThe Kelermorph is a gunslinging killer of near-legendary status within the brood, a hybrid blessed with preternatural speed and pinpoint aim. Wielding a trio of heavy pistols, this lone assassin stalks the battlefield, gunning down enemy leaders with contemptuous precision. To the cult its exploits are the stuff of whispered myth, and the sight of a Kelermorph at work sends courage draining from the hearts of the foe.
Troops · InfantryKhorne BerzerkersWorld EatersKhorne Berzerkers are the beating, blood-soaked heart of the World Eaters, Chaos Space Marines whose Butcher's Nails have reduced them to living engines of close-quarters murder. Armed with roaring chainaxes and chainswords, they exist to close with the enemy and hack them apart, feeling nothing but the need to kill until nothing living stands before them.
Lord of War · VehicleKhorne Lord of SkullsWorld EatersThe Khorne Lord of Skulls is a super-heavy daemon engine, the upper body of a colossal Khornate warrior mounted upon grinding tracks and powered by the boiling blood of murderers. It grinds infantry to paste, hacks battle tanks apart with a single sweep of its cleaver, and serves the warbands that follow it as a rolling altar to the Blood God.
Fast Attack · BeastKhymeraeDrukhariKhymerae are half-real shadow-beasts hauled from the webway, flickering horrors that fling themselves at the foe on the leashes of their beastmasters.
Heavy Support · VehicleKill RigOrksHalf war-altar and half rolling abattoir, the Kill Rig grinds forward on great iron wheels dragged by a monstrous squig, carrying a Wurrboy who hurls raw Waaagh! energy into the foe.
Elites · Combined Infantry SquadKill TeamDeathwatchThe Kill Team is the signature formation of the Deathwatch, a bespoke assembly of specialists drawn together for a single mission. Blending veterans, terminators, and swift vanguard warriors into one lethal whole, a kill team is tailored to unmake a specific enemy with surgical precision.
Heavy Support · WalkerKilla KansOrksSquat, boxy walkers built around a single armed Grot pilot, waddling into battle with more enthusiasm than coordination.
Lords of War · VehicleKnight AbominantChaos KnightsAn Infernal god-machine wholly given to the warp, its swollen hull fused with daemonic essence and crowned by a Volkite Combustor that reduces flesh and armour to ash.
