Hi all,
Hoping my fellow warhammer players could help me out! My bf keeps saying he needs Custodes Warriors for his list, but he can't afford them. I was going to buy some for an xmas present, so he would be able to field them properly, but I don't play marines so I honestly have no idea what he means by 'warriors.' I've trolled through the GW website and can't find any units that are 'warriors'. I'm guessing my bf is using some wargaming lingo that isn't actually reflected in the online store.
If anyone could let me know what unit he might be talking about, that'd be amazing!
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Thanks for everyone's suggestions/decoding! I might play it safe a grab one box for each (wardens and guard).

Presumably what he means is custodes GUARD which is the core unit for custodes.
https://www.games-workshop.com/en-AU/Adeptus-Custodes-Custodian-Guard-2018 - thats the basic custodes guard there. and is proably your safest bet (for the record no one uses the term "custodes warriors" so your boyfriend is just mangling the lingo)
in addition to those you have custodes WARDENS (could be you where mishearing him?) https://www.games-workshop.com/en-AU/Adeptus-Custodes-Custodian-Wardens-2018 which are there.
the wardens might be your best buy as even if he just wanted guards he could use them as custodes guards easily eneugh

Wardens are an elite choice. Custodian guard are basic troop choice as is Sagitarium guard but those are Forgeworld. Sounds like he e means the custodian guard since troop choices are the building blocks of a batallion.

Tell your BF that if he wants to put toy soldiers on a Christmas/birthday list he needs to copy a link to the exact item on GW's store (or on Amazon or whatever) because nobody who isn't into this hobby themselves is ever going to get it right otherwise.

I would agree, but I like to surprise him when it comes to Christmas and birthdays. It spoils it a little when I ask for links! (also I do play, just not marines).

I mean the SAFEST option would be to buy him a box of both. but to be honest, no matter what you get him I'm sure will be handy, custodes players can build HQs and "banner carriers" from the guard and warden boxes both so they're pretty useful over all. each box is basicly a mini start collecting box.
