Take a look at the units stats for the upcoming 9th ed 40k box set, courtesy of the Warhammer-community team!
Witness five rounds of new-edition combat with the units from Indomitus. This is how it’s going to work: we’ll take a look at the stats, size them up, and you’ll get a chance to pick your favourites before the dice start rolling.
Round 1
First up is a squad fight – a match-up between the Infantry on both sides of the Indomitus boxed set. Both units are made up of formidable killers, with very different skill sets. Let’s see what happens when the brutal close-range hitting power of the Assault Intercessors crashes against the deadly weaponry of a large unit of implacable Necron Warriors.
It’s chainswords versus gauss flayers – find out who emerges victorious over on Twitch.
Round 2
Our next bout is a classic mismatch of size versus numbers. Outriders combine the formidable skill and resilience of Primaris Space Marines with the speed and versatility of combat bikes, offering a massive threat range and the ability to hit their foe where they’re weakest.
Against the roaring bikes of the Outriders, a lone Scarab isn’t much of a threat. In numbers though, the peril magnifies. As a swarm of living metal and sharp edges, they flood the battlefield with chittering legs and eerie green flashes of energy, dismantling all who stand in their way.
This bout is all beetles and bikes – who will take home the glory? Find out on Twitch!
Round 3
The Ancients versus really, really, really ancients are squaring up for our third bout. For the Space Marines, we have fighters from the First Company, armed with the finest weapons and armour a Chapter can provide! The Bladeguard Veterans are warriors with few peers anywhere in the galaxy.
Skorpekh Destroyers, like their towering lords, are metal horrors driven by a maniacal hatred of the living. Surging forward on their powerfully limbed bodies and equipped with heavy bladed weapons, they ‘live’ only to rend and dismember their foes.
With the Plasmacyte and Bladeguard Ancient in their respective corners, both units are ready to fight even harder!

Round 4
The fights are heating up! In our penultimate bout, we have the new Captain in the blue corner. The commander of the Space Marines in the Indomitus boxed set, this close combat heavyweight boasts premium abilities in both offence and defence. He’s also got the stats to back the kit he carries.
In the glowing green corner is the reaper of souls, the undying sovereign of slaughter: the Necron Overlord. With a hyperphase glaive that cuts through armour like… errr.. a hyperphase sword only glaive-ier, and wrapped a Living Metal body that can take a licking and keep on ticking, he’s eight hundred pounds* of immortal fury!
Will the venerated hero of the Space Marines prevail, or be laid low by the logic and precision of an infernal murder machine?
And now it’s time for the main event of the afternoon…
Round 5
In this round, the Space Marines put forward the all-new bringer of vengeance, the Judiciar. Despite adhering to a vow of silence, a Judiciar’s stats and wargear send a loud and clear message: you’re not immortal any more tin-boy!
In a rare turn of events, the Space Marine is the underdog in this fight – behold the multilimbed behemoth that is the Skorpekh Lord! This towering new Necron is a nightmare given form, with skittering legs, whirling blades, and a massive gun to boot.
Both of these Characters are able to dish out tremendous amounts of pain up close. Will the Skorpekh Lord’s enmitic annihilator make the difference? Ring the bell!
Now that you know the lineup, watch the show on Twitch to see if you picked the winners for each round!
