No idea why it's printed as that. This post has been hugely accurate. Probably the magazine is treating them as one big squad of 20?

TheVoidDragon Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 (edited) Just received my order of issue 73 with the 10 Cadians. Fortunately it comes with bases after all!

Mallwill Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Morning all! just in case it helps anyone - you can actually subscribe and cancel the Combat Patrol subscription at any time. You can start from as far back as issue 63 at the moment. And postage is free. You can also add / order the special character ones any time whilst you are a subscriber. so my path may be to re subscribe at issue 79 for the Sentinel and all of the World Eaters - nab the Ork character pack as well. Particularly tempting as zero paint issues in 12 issues. you can also ask them to “catch you up” and pay for all issues and get one massive delivery. I have done this and it leads to some kind of frenzied state of new minis!

Frogian Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 oh damn that is tempting - could start from 69 and pick up subscriber bonus thing 4 too? What is the Ork character pack?

Mallwill Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Yeah it’s Snikrot I think Alas the premium kits can’t be added after issue 4 as you have to pay £2 per issue more to get them. But still v tempting. I definitely don’t need them - but I want them. Heck I only paint the things at the moment and already have the first 5 combat patrols.

I've heard your VAT tends to jack up the prices of GW. So this might be a bigger savings for you then the rest of us. Nice.

That $4.50 adds up to $405AU over the 90 issues, and the GW retail value for the extra 8 units is $978AU, so yeah, definitely worth the little extra Focslain 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384128-hachette-partworks-combat-patrol-summary-thread/page/15/#findComment-6156801 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Debonair Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Throwing out a big and hearty Thank You to whichever glorious and wonderful frater added the link to BuyMagsDirect on the first page; after all this time some dirty scalper got up early (before 8;00 am when I get there every week) and swept my local completely clean of the second part of the Imperial Guard Field Ordnance battery (there's normally 5~6 issues when I get there), leaving only American Car magazines in their wake. Luckily, I was able to order one from the aforementioned website - so I am no longer boiling with white-hot rage and have calmed to a mere simmering fury.

lhg033 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Lunch time walk update - Forbidden Planet Shaftbury Avenue has the heavy weapons team issue on the shelves. Reckon they have maybe 30 issues. So the question is,... how many heavy weapaons teams is 'normal' in a guard army?....... They still have quite a few of the field ordenance issues - they were putting more on the shelves as I was there.

I have never seen them on the shelves in any other shop since the days of Conquest magazine. FP is usually an ok bet but they do randomly sometimes put issues out a couple of days early so there have been a few issues that have been harder to get. buymagsdirect and newstand have both been fairly reliable for getting the odd issue I have missed but at a premium for the postage cost.

Lockdown Posted Saturday at 12:24 PM Share Posted Saturday at 12:24 PM I just got back into 40K at christmas and found out about Combat Patrol just in time, I got some Cadians so decided to supplement. Picked up 4x75 and 4x77 from forbidden planet, sadly thought I missed out on the shock troop editions but managed to get 3x 74 from a site called warbay.shop last week. They are out of 74s now but may restock.

grimdarktone Posted Saturday at 01:07 PM Share Posted Saturday at 01:07 PM Hi all, I've been lurking in this thread for a while before finally signing up over the last couple of days. I play both World Eaters and Astra Militarum, so I've been patiently waiting for the current run of issues. I dropped into Forbidden Planet in Cambridge on Wednesday around lunchtime and unfortunately there was no sign of issue 77 anywhere on the shelves. Lots of the "part X of 2" issues knocking about for a few things, along with a fair few Leagues of Votann and Genestealer Cults issues, though I didn't look at those too closely. My son picked me up a couple of Command Squads and Infantry Squads a few weeks back, but the Heavy Weapons Teams have been nowhere to be found in Cambridge.

Might be worth trying the WHSmith TG Jones on Market Street; they used to stock the previous partwork collections although my experience there was you had to be there on the morning they come out to have a chance at getting them (I don't work in the city centre any more, so no idea if they've been stocking Combat Patrol) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/384128-hachette-partworks-combat-patrol-summary-thread/page/15/#findComment-6158005 Share on other sites More sharing options...
