Combat Patrol is set on small, localized battlefields measuring exactly 44" x 30" with evenly distributed terrain features. For the broader Warhammer 40,000 universe, the setting is the "grimdark" far future, where various sci-fi factions fight for survival in a galaxy consumed by war.The Combat Patrol format functions as a fast, introductory mode of play with a streamlined rule-set. Models from Combat Patrol can be used in a regular Warhammer 40,000 game as well.
