Codex: Genestealer Cults - 10th Edition - English

Warhammer 40,000, a captivating sci-fi tabletop game by Games Workshop, immerses players in a sprawling universe of eternal war.

Set in the 41st millennium, this epic saga transports you to a future where the galaxy is a grim and brutal battlefield. Across the vast expanse of the cosmos, ancient races clash, and sinister forces vie for supremacy.

Will you align with the mighty Space Marines, the stalwart Astra Militarum, or the insidious forces of Chaos? From Xenos races like the Eldar and Orks to the inscrutable Necrons and Tyranids, the choices are as diverse as they are deadly.

Prepare for epic clashes, tactical warfare, and a narrative-driven experience that will push your strategic acumen to its limits. Enter the darkness, and decide the fate of the 41st millennium.

A Genestealer Cult is a community of Genestealers, hybrids and human convert-hosts. Cults form when a Genestealer infects members of another species with its genotype. The resultant changes in the genome of the host cause a fanatical loyalty to the Genestealers along with a drastic change to their reproductive systems. Their firstborn children will be Hybrids, a grotesque mixture of the host's race and the Genestealers. These hybirds infect further victims, and the infection spreads exponentially. Fourth generation hybrids produce Purestrain Genestealers, and the cycle starts once again.

The resulting brood of Purestrains, hybrids and humans convert-hosts is held together by strong psychic and genetic bonds and assembles around the original Genestealer which becomes the Patriarch. Because the cult is often hidden behind the facade of a religion or political movement, it is branded a Genestealer Cult by the Imperium.

The hour is nigh. Genestealer Cults rise from the shadows, armed with fresh Detachments and cunning tactics for their twisted hybrids. This tome unveils five Detachments, like the Brood Brother Auxilia, for integrating heretical Astra Militarum into your ranks. It overflows with lore and brutal art, all in praise of the Four-Armed Emperor.
