INTRODUCTION
Prepare yourself, for you are about to learn the secrets of a vile alien creed. The Genestealer Curse is a parasitic infection of
mind, body and soul that eats away at the heart of the Imperium – and this book helps you represent it on the battlefield,
gathering your collection of Genestealer Cults Citadel Miniatures into an all-conquering force of insurrectionists.
On the darkly glorious day of a Genestealer Cult’s uprising, its
warriors are already ten steps ahead of the enemy. Fast-moving
saboteurs have shattered the supply lines of those who would
oppose them, hidden agents have assassinated key commanders,
and routes of escape have been cut off by demolition crews and
industrial mining teams. The foe finds their ammunition crates
empty, their fuel reserves dry, their transportation craft hijacked
and their supporting fleet holed and listing in orbit. When the cult
unleashes the abhorrent alien monstrosities that act as its shock
troops, the enemy is already surrounded, stranded and ripe for a
slaughter long planned.
Using a Genestealer Cults army in battle is a wargaming experience
like no other, and presents an exciting challenge for veterans
and newcomers alike. Their ability to ambush the enemy means
they can appear from nowhere to wreak havoc, whether through
firepower or swift assault. With a mix of fervent worshippers,
industrial machinery repurposed for war, heavy-hitting xenos
hybrids and cunning leaders with specialist abilities – all guided by
a monstrous Patriarch – there are a hundred ways to secure victory.
When it comes to building and painting, Genestealer Cults Citadel
Miniatures make for a varied and enjoyable challenge. Every
model has a sinister style to it, replete with characterful features
and detail. From indentured human thrall to chitin-covered
alien horror, the distinct generations of hybrid ensure a range of
interesting colour schemes can be employed in your army.
Within this book you will find all the information you need to
collect a Genestealer Cults army and field it upon the tabletop.
WORSHIPPERS OF THE XENOS: This section provides a detailed
account of how a Genestealer Cult spreads its insidious cycles of
corruption, from the first alien to make planetfall to the uprising
that sees an entire world consumed – sometimes literally!
THE FAITHFUL THRONG: Here you will find a showcase of
exceptionally well-painted miniatures displaying the colours
and iconography of the cults, and example forces to inspire your
own collection.
THE CREEDS BENEATH: This section includes datasheets,
wargear lists and weapon rules for every Genestealer Cults unit,
allowing you to field them in your games of Warhammer 40,000.
INSURRECTION: Finally, this section contains additional rules
– including Warlord Traits, Relics, Stratagems and matched play
points – that will transform your collection of Citadel Miniatures
into a Battle-forged gaming army.

The triumph of the xenoform over the works of man is inevitable. The galaxy cannot contain both indefinitely, for one feeds upon
the other and cannot be sated. Only by joining with the alien lords – by
becoming
them – can Mankind survive. Succumb, yield,
admit your weakness and accept the Genestealer’s Kiss. Only then will you be strong, and take your true place amongst the stars.
