This index covers the modern Warhammer 40,000 range. Horus Heresy forces have their own unit index and a setting hub.
Heavy Support · VehicleSkorpius DisintegratorAdeptus MechanicusThe Skorpius Disintegrator is a heavy grav-tank of the Adeptus Mechanicus, a hovering gun-platform that glides above the battlefield on repulsor fields to deliver punishing long-range fire. Its crowning weapon is the belleros energy cannon, a plasma-derived gun capable of scouring away armour and infantry alike, supported by disruptor missiles and a screen of cognis stubbers. Swift and heavily armed, it is the mailed fist of the forge world's mobile war.
Dedicated Transport · VehicleSkorpius DuneriderAdeptus MechanicusA fast repulsor transport that carries Skitarii across broken ground at reckless speed.
Heavy Support · Daemon EngineSkull Cannon of KhorneChaos DaemonsA shrieking daemon engine that grinds the slain to bone and hurls their flaming skulls across the battlefield.
Fast Attack · VehicleSkyweaversHarlequinsThe jetbike cavalry of the masques, pairs of Players upon graceful grav-machines who race across the battlefield loosing star bolas, zephyrglaives and haywire cannons.
Elites · InfantrySolitaireHarlequinsThe most singular and terrifying of the Harlequins, a Player who dances the role of the Great Enemy and moves faster than sight, a whirlwind of the caress and the kiss.
Elites · VehicleSonic DreadnoughtEmperor's ChildrenThe Sonic Dreadnought is a Chaos Dreadnought remade in the image of Slaanesh, used almost exclusively by the Emperor's Children. Its guns replaced with shrieking sonic weaponry, it advances amid a torrent of discordant howling that warps reality and flays the sanity from all who hear it, long before its chainfist ever falls.
HQ · Psyker CharacterSorcererChaos Space MarinesWielders of forbidden warpcraft, Chaos Sorcerers bend the raw power of the Immaterium into ruinous spells, trading their souls for knowledge no mortal was meant to hold.
Heavy Support · Vehicle-DaemonSoul GrinderChaos DaemonsA towering daemon engine forged in the Warp, its daemon soul bound to a body of iron and adamantium.
Troops · InfantrySpectrus Kill TeamDeathwatchPhobos-armoured Primaris kill-teams who specialise in stealth, sabotage, and destabilising the xenos from near and far.
HQ · InfantrySpiritseerAeldariSpiritseers are the shepherds of the dead, seers who walk a Path that lets them commune with the souls bound within a craftworld's infinity circuit. In war they guide the wraith constructs, the ghost warriors animated by the spirits of fallen heroes, steadying their unquiet minds and directing their strength against the living. They are the bridge between the Aeldari who were and the Aeldari who remain.
Fast Attack · CavalrySquighog BoyzOrksMounted on snorting, razor-toothed squigs, the Squighog Boyz smash into the enemy line at a gallop, lances lowered and beasts biting, a stampede of muscle and malice few battle-lines can absorb.
Elites · InfantrySslythDrukhariThe Sslyth are serpentine, four-armed mercenaries whose bought loyalty and love of slaughter make them the most trusted bodyguards a Drukhari lord can keep.
Dedicated Transport · VehicleStarweaverHarlequinsA swift and elegant anti-grav transport that carries a Troupe to the perfect moment of attack, protected by flickering holo-fields and sheer, uncatchable speed.
Elites · InfantryStealth BattlesuitsT'au EmpireCompact, sensor-baffling battlesuits used to infiltrate enemy lines and strike vulnerable targets before vanishing.

Flyer · AircraftStormraven GunshipGrey KnightsA versatile gunship and dropship that carries the knights of Titan into battle behind warded armour and mindstrike missiles.
Elites · InfantryStriking ScorpionsAeldariThe Striking Scorpions are the deadliest close-quarters killers of the Aspect Warriors, embodying the patient, venomous predator whose name they bear. Clad in the heaviest armour of any Aspect, they steal upon their prey through shadow and cover, then erupt into a whirl of chainswords and mandiblaster stings. They are hunters first and warriors second, and few enemies survive the moment they are found.
HQ · InfantrySuccubusDrukhariThe peerless gladiator-queen of a Wych Cult, an icon of the killing arenas whose lethal grace makes every duel a work of art and every raid a stage for slaughter.
Flyer · FlyerSun Shark BomberT'au EmpireThe Sun Shark Bomber sails over the enemy to release its pulse bombs, then looses a pair of interceptor drones to guard the skies it has just scarred.
Fast Attack · InfantrySwooping HawksAeldariThe Swooping Hawks are the winged skirmishers of the Aspect Warriors, soaring above the battlefield on shimmering anti-gravity wings. They dart and wheel through the air, raining lasfire and grenades upon the enemy before climbing beyond reach, embodying the vengeful hunting birds of Aeldari myth. Swift and elusive, they harry the foe and seize the moment for the killing blow.
Elites · InfantrySword BrethrenSpace MarinesThe finest warriors of a Black Templars fighting company, the Sword Brethren form the Marshal's Household and stand as the Chapter's answer to a Codex-compliant First Company.
Fast Attack · WalkerSydonian DragoonsAdeptus MechanicusSydonian Dragoons are the towering cavalry of the Adeptus Mechanicus, lone Skitarii riders perched high atop striding tripod walkers that carry them swiftly across the battlefield. Armed with the taser lance, a weapon that unleashes crackling energy on impact, they charge headlong into the enemy to skewer and electrocute their prey. Fast, mobile, and startling in appearance, they harry the foe's flanks and run down fleeing survivors with elegant, mechanical savagery.
Elites · WalkerSydonian SkatrosAdeptus MechanicusA lone striding marksman perched atop a tall walker, picking off targets from a commanding height.
