Description

With whispered prayers to the Star Gods, the oppressed masses of a thousand worlds rise in coordinated revolt. This codex marks the first full standalone release for the Genestealer Cults in Warhammer 40,000, bringing a long-lurking xenos threat into the light with terrifying clarity.

Inside this 7th Edition codex you’ll find:

• Full background lore on the Cults' spread, rituals, and Tyranid connection

• Army list entries and datasheets for classic and unique units like Patriarchs, Neophytes, Acolyte Hybrids, Sentinels, and Aberrants

• Special rules for Cult Ambush, Unquestioning Loyalty, and insurgency-based gameplay

• Warlord Traits, Relics of the Cult, tactical objectives, and psychic powers

• Artwork and photography showcasing the grim, insidious beauty of hybrid revolution

This book allowed Genestealer Cults to function as a standalone army for the first time since Rogue Trader, bringing them into modern 40K with a revolutionary blend of Astra Militarum vehicles and Tyranid genespawn.

Collectible Value

As the first modern-era Genestealer Cults codex, this 7th Edition rulebook is highly collectible. It marks a major moment in the narrative evolution of Warhammer 40,000, breathing new life into a faction previously bound to White Dwarf articles and ancient lore.

With its rules long out-of-print and never reprinted in this form, this softcover codex is ideal for:

• Edition-pure 7th Edition players

• Faction historians and Tyranid collectors

• Archivists of Warhammer's xenos legacy
