 The Battle For Macragge is a boxed set that introduces
you to the Warhammer 40,000 game and the grim universe that serves
as the game's backdrop. Players across the globe have been playing
Warhammer 40,000 (often called 40K by its fans) for decades. It
is a game of tabletop battles between armies of futuristic warriors,
fighting machines, and hordes of implacable aliens.
The 40K game is both rich and vast, and it will
provide you with years of challenges and excitement. Battle For
Macragge is an ideal way for you to get into 40K. It gradually teaches
you the rules through a series of missions. Like all games of 40K,
these missions take place as a part of the overall storyline of
the 41st millennium. The Battle For Macragge missions are set during
one particular titanic struggle between Humanity's defenders and
alien attackers who know no mercy.
| Tabletop wargaming involves two or more players
fighting for dominance over a replica battlefield, with
armies of painted miniature soldiers representing troops,
artillery, and powerful machines of war. What makes these
battles even more fun is that they take place in the
context of the distant future that forms the Warhammer
40,000 universe, as told through various hobby books
and novels. |

 However,
the Battle For Macragge boxed set isn't all about rules and missions.
The set contains enough high-quality Citadel miniatures to get you
started, along with scenery models to add detail to your tabletop
battlefields. These miniatures and models are included in the set
so you can begin playing games right away. Once you get the hang
of the game, you can even go back and paint these models for your
first step into the rewarding 40K hobby.
 The
missions in Battle For Macragge show you how to use each of the
miniatures in the boxed set. Each successive battle introduces a
new element to the game, culminating in one large, final battle
that uses all the pieces within the box. These missions are fun
to play and quick to complete, but the enjoyment doesn't end there.
Having played all six of them once, it is not a bad idea to talk
over how they worked and what went right or wrong. Then you can
swap sides and play them all again. The Battle For Macragge lets
you master the rules as you venture into the dark universe of 40K.
Of course, the Battle For Macragge boxed set is
just the tip of the 40K iceberg. An entire galaxy of armies, war
machines, heroes, and villains awaits discovery. What's more, the
tabletop gaming hobby also incorporates model making, collecting,
and painting miniatures all to make your army your own. Most of
all, there is a vast community of enthusiastic 40K hobbyists, clubs,
and gaming stores that are ready to share ideas with you and pass
on their experience. The Battle For Macragge boxed set is a door
into that world.
