Swarm tactics. Biological horror. Total consumption.
The Tyranid Assault Brood Combat Patrol is a complete starter force for Warhammer 40,000, designed for fast, tactical “Combat Patrol” games right out of the box. It’s built around speed, melee pressure, and disruptive battlefield control—the way Tyranids are meant to play.
