White Dwarf Magazine White Dwarf 508 - New Combat Patrols and KT24 PvE Missions

[Indy Techwisp]

So from today's Sunday preview:

 

I thought they'd stopped doing White Dwarf Killteams, but it'd be nice if they are coming back.

Also, more stuff for the PvE mode is good.

 

Edit: As stated by other users here and Games Workshop via a comment section, it is 2 new Combat Patrols, not Kill Teams.

The new PvE stuff is most likely still Kill Team however, as afaik there's no PvE Combat Patrol rules.

Corrected title and body due to new information.

The cover said two combat patrols. There's an error somewhere.

[Nephaston]

Oh hey, they remembered the main benefit of the combat patrol system; the ability to just make new patrols to feed the ravenous player base.

[TheMawr]

Its probably the combat patrols. I think the WD cover is least likely to be in the wrong ;)

 

btw im wondering if the lack of any hint of it means just like the rumor engines there won't be a newyears teaser this time, surely the article would have mentioned it.

I hope they do the silhouettes.

There's apparently a lot of new stuff upcoming so going in totally blind doesn't feel right.

Mindflenser's murder court sounds neat. I'm guessing a psychomancer and flayed ones. 

[irlLordy]

The fact that it's a Court makes me think there might be a Skorpekh Lord leading it. Psychomancer would also make a lot of sense too though. 

[LSM]

The names "Strike Platoon Gorgonne VI" and "the Mindflenser’s Murder Court" do sound more like Combat Patrols to me than Kill Teams, so I'll assume that the image is correct and not the text.

It'd be odd for no new years teasers but maybe they're just trying to keep it a surprise...or they're still making it!

[Lord Marshal]

Seen this doing the rounds, confirmed to be Combat Patrols.
