Here are all the Combat Patrol 10th Edition Warhammer 40k rules PDF datasheet downloads from Games Workshop made just for those box sets!
This is a totally new game mode for 10th Edition Warhammer 40k, where hobbyists can just pick up a single Combat Patrol and play against other people with just the box. This should hopefully help newer players get into the game easier or just let you try out a new faction without spending a ton of cash.
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 that every box has a fighting chance against every other Combat Patrol – such as when the plucky Astra Militarum have to stare down the ferocious Adeptus Custodes – special datasheets are used for each faction, and wouldn’t you know it, they are all available here to download.
Just keep in mind that if you play the Combat Patrol style, you will use datasheets different from those in the normal game. Meaning the units will perform slightly differently from what you might expect.
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 each differently, but as they say, they are different from the standard index card rules.
First up, 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 just 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, there will be some minor differences on the datasheets, which should hopefully make the game balanced across the different boxes. Before you 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
The new 10th Edition Warhammer 40k Combat Patrol rules and missions downloads come from Warhammer Community.
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 rules are quite similar, 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, then 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 is all about getting your characters to objectives and positioning your warlord correctly!
