Buying advice for second-hand collectors

Combat Patrol, starter-box halves and bulk troop lots are the best per-point Tomb Kings value.

Collecting & army-building advice

Tomb Kings armies reward picking a colour identity early and committing to it across the force. Most Tomb Kings collectors build around a Combat Patrol or starter-box half, then expand with second-hand troop blocks and a centrepiece character or monster. Batch-painting troops with contrast paints over zenithal grey is the fastest route from grey plastic to tabletop-ready.
