All The 10th Edition 40k Combat Patrol Free Rules & Datasheets
The new Combat Patrol 10th Edition Warhammer 40k rules datasheets come from Warhammer Community.
To make sure every squad stands a fighting chance, special datasheets are used for each faction. And hey, you can download them all right here!
Warhammer 40k Combat Patrol Rules
If you do end up playing games of Combat Patrol, just remember that you’ll be using different datasheets than the normal game. So, the units might behave a bit unexpectedly than what you may be used to!
Each Combat Patrol details exactly which units you can take and what equipment to give them, so you can also assemble them from your own existing collection. Each one has a set Warlord and, as in regular games of Warhammer 40,000, they can be given an Enhancement – although this time you have just two to choose from, which can significantly change your strategy.
You can download the rules for each faction separately, but keep in mind, they are different from the standard index card rules.
Example Combat Patrol Rules
First, they show everything that actually comes in the box and what they will be armed with. However, if you’re building up a full force, you can build them as you want and use “counts as” for this.
All of the army and detachment rules are here for Combat Patrol games, but each faction will only get a few scoring options and a couple of stratagems.
Last but not least, the datasheets will have minor differences, hopefully making the game balanced across the different boxes. Before you purchase a Combat Patrol box, though, be sure to check out the values of the boxes here!
Free 10th Edition 40k Combat Patrol Missions & Rules Downloads
So, picture this: a smaller board, intense battles, and a whole lot of strategizing. Intrigued? Well, it’s all here in the new 10th Edition Warhammer 40k Combat Patrol rules and missions downloads.
Keep reading to see what they are all about!
Once you’ve downloaded them, all you need to play is a Combat Patrol for each player, a 44” x 30” battlefield – that’s a pair of gaming boards laid side-by-side – and a little stack of terrain to give your Patrols some cover to fight around.
The Combat Patrol PDF rules are quite similar to larger games of Warhammer 40k, but obviously, you’re playing on a smaller board; however, securing objective markers must be done by Battleline units in Combat Patrol.
Now, let’s check out some of the missions.
This is a pretty classic setup with all the objectives in no man’s land, meaning you have to get into the thick of it to secure the points!
With the smaller battlefield, you won’t have a ton of room to deploy, but this adds a nice wrinkle to the game with objective markers disappearing.
This mission rule is interesting, and if you can deep strike a unit into the backline and get the objective marker, your opponent will not get re-rolls.
This is an alpha strike style game, as you can move forward quickly and start razing objectives for a ton of points, but your opponent cannot capture them.
Gaining Command Points is always a good thing! So be sure to control that home objective for free CP.
Last but not least, for now, this mission is all about getting your characters to objectives and positioning your warlord correctly! If these look like something you want to play, you can download the free Combat Patrol PDF from Games Workshop below.
