Getting into Warhammer 40,000 just got a whole lot easier for U.S. players with the arrival of Combat Patrol, the new subscription magazine in partnership with Hachette!
This magazine series has been a hit in the UK and Europe, and now it’s crossing the pond to introduce U.S. players to the grimdark universe of Warhammer 40k. If you’ve been looking for a smooth entry point into the game, this is it. The magazine comes with miniatures, rules, and background lore, all designed to gradually get you into the game and expand your collection over time.
What’s in Store?
The Combat Patrol subscription will bring you nine full Combat Patrols, each representing a different faction from the Warhammer 40,000 universe. Each issue includes a collection of miniatures, a set of rules, and rich lore to dive into. The first issue is coming soon, so be sure to jump on board early! Throughout the series, you’ll not only get to collect miniatures but also get introduced to the core rules of the game and learn how to play using the Combat Patrol game mode, a smaller, quicker way to get into the action without needing a full army.
The Factions
As for the miniatures, you’ll get a full range of Warhammer 40k factions, including Space Marines, Tyranids, Aeldari, Chaos Space Marines, Orks, Leagues of Votann, Genestealer Cults, Astra Militarum, and World Eaters. Each faction comes with some awesome additional units not usually seen in their standard Combat Patrol boxes, giving you an exclusive new datasheet to use in your games. It’s a great way to add a unique twist to your army right from the get-go.
Premium Subscription Perks
If you’re looking to take your collection to the next level, you can opt for the premium subscription. This gives you access to larger miniatures like the Brutalis Dreadnought or the Rogal Dorn Battle Tank—perfect for when you want to go beyond the basic Combat Patrol and start building larger, more powerful forces. These models also provide fantastic opportunities for painting projects if you’re a hobbyist who loves adding personal flair to your armies.
The Pre-order Offer
Fans in the United States can now subscribe through Hachette Partworks—and the best part? You can pre-order now to get a special gift, available while stocks last. So not only will you be building up your Warhammer 40,000 army, but you’ll also get a bonus to sweeten the deal.
For newcomers and seasoned veterans alike, Combat Patrol is a fantastic way to get into Warhammer 40,000, build your collection gradually, and experience the rich lore of the 41st Millennium. Whether you’re diving into the universe for the first time or just looking to expand your army, this subscription has something for everyone.
