scottshoemaker Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 I'd like to run a 40k event Friday night. It will be a low points value, 3 round fun event. Here are my two thoughts: Combat patrol: 400 pts, with restrictions on vehicles, multi wound models and using a special CAD. Advantages would be that it's basic 40k and any special rules would be in the packet or Kill Team: 200 pts Using straight up Kill Team rules. This means anyone participating would need those rules. Either way this will be a narrative light event, with Trophies for goofy things and a Peoples Choice award for army appearance. Expect wacky crap to happen during the games like Meteor Strike! and Earthquake! So I need community feedback to decide what the event is, so I can write up a proposal to the Tsars and Senate for it's inclusion.

DisruptiveConduct Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Love the ideas, Scott! I picked Kill Team only so it might allow for 4 rounds/quick games and more time for shenanigans. I see the advantage of the simplified special rules with Combat Patrol. I might come back and change my mind. Voting for KT for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm similarly on the fence about it, but was leaning slightly more toward the simplified special rules. Might also go back and change later.

scottshoemaker Posted October 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 I should state in the event of a tie my vote for Combat Patrol will be the tiebreaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PumpkinHead Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 I prefer KT as I haven't played combat patrol. But either should be fine. Would this be in addition to what ever "tournament" is set up for Friday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottshoemaker Posted October 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 In the past there has been an ITC tourney. This would be in addition to for those who want smaller games with a lighter atmosphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgosaurusrex Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 I would prefer Combat Patrol. Kill team is fun but Combat Patrol feels more like 40k! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torg Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 where are the rules (official?) for Combat Patrol? Kill team - has a book so that was easy. But all I can find is a game day sheet for combat patrol - and I am not sure this is exactly what your aiming for. -d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottshoemaker Posted October 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 No official rules. Adepticon has some great examples. Think 400pts standard 40k with unit and vehicle restrictions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torg Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 OK - I have those printed - along with the one from warhammer world last year... seems straight forward. Ok... cool. My vote is still for Combat Patrol. -d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
