WD 284 UK 40K in 40 min 11/5/03 12:44 PM Page 28

Ever since the publication of White

Dwarf 274 containing Tim Eagling’s

‘40K in 40 Minutes’ article, players

from across the UK have been enjoying

this revolutionary approach to games

for Warhammer 40,000. Now that we

are ready to embark upon The Eye of

Terror campaign we felt it was time to

update those rules.

REVISITED

Eye of Terror Edition

WHAT’S IT

ALL ABOUT?

Patrol Clash

is short-form

Warhammer

40,000. The

games are

designed to take

around forty

minutes to play

(or less) and are

meant to be fast

and fun. This is a set of rules to help

players get a regular game when time

is the most limiting factor. This is

not a light set of rules but rather a

fresh way to use the armies you

already have.

RULES OF ENGAGEMENT: ARMY LIMITATIONS

Each player will need an army that

conforms to the rules below:

• Armies are no more than 400 points.

• You must have one Troop choice.

• You may have one HQ choice, but no

more than one.

• You may spend remaining points from

anywhere in the Codex.

• No model can have more than 2 Wounds.

• No Special Characters.

• No 2+ saves.

• No vehicles with a total Armour value

greater than 33. This is calculated by

adding the Front, Side and Rear armour

numbers. (Only count the Side once).

• All models must be WYSIWYG -

‘What you see is what you get’.

• All models must be painted

Citadel miniatures.

COMMANDERS

As you might not pick an HQ choice, the

patrol should still have a commander

who gives the orders and against which

Leadership tests are made. This, of

course, would be the most senior

ranking figure. In the case of two figures

being of an equal rank then the player

may choose which is the patrol’s leader,

and only that figure may confer its

Leadership bonus to friendly squads.

SCENARIOS

There are a number of scenarios in this

pack which you can use. See the scenario

sheets enclosed for more details.

TEAM PLAY

There is another way to use these rules

if you have around an hour to play a

larger game. Players can team up with

two armies allied together for the battle

and play against two other opponents.

TEAM ALLIANCES

Players will fight a battle with two armies

allied together. Each army may ally only

with the armies shown on the Alliances

chart shown opposite:

Simply cross-reference the races with

whom you wish to ally. The following

notations represent:

B = Battle Brothers — same army, so no

problems.

X = Disallowed — cannot ally under any

circumstances.

T = Trusted allies — no special rules,

alliance is permitted.

D = Distrustful allies — permitted, but

allied units and characters within 6''

of each other suffer a -1 Leadership

penalty (after other modifiers).

You may only select to play with a

team-mate who has an army you are

permitted to ally with. Each player selects

an army using the above Patrol Clash

limitations. Taken together, the two armies

should total no more than 800 points.

Before each battle the Command HQ

must be decided using the following rule:

• Each player on the team rolls a D6,

with the opponents witnessing the roll

– re-roll any ties.

• The highest rolling player will lead the

army in this battle. They are the

Command HQ player.

• The Command HQ player will

determine the sequence in which the

combined armies’ units move and fight.

SCENARIO 1: RECON

• Use the scenario on Warhammer

40,000 rulebook page 142.

especially in Team Play battles, which

you need to sort out ‘on the fly’. The best

way to resolve these issues is to ask

yourself the following:

1. Is there any existing Warhammer

40,000 rule you can use as

a precedent?

2. What is the most reasonable thing

that would happen in this situation?

3. What are the two most likely outcomes

and then roll a D6: 1-3 = Go with

solution 1; 4-6 = Go with solution 2.

SCENARIO 2: CLEANSE

• Use the scenario on Warhammer

40,000 rulebook page 139.

SCENARIO 3: PATROL

• Use the scenario on Warhammer

40,000 rulebook page 141.

Models will be deployed in an order

decided by the respective Command HQ

player in each team.

PARTING WORDS

All that remains to be said is that we

hope you enjoy the Patrol Clash stuff

and we challenge you to try it out. Even

if you are a hard-bitten veteran player

we think there is something for you to

experience that will stretch your mind

more than you might expect. Enjoy!

BEWARE ODDITIES

When you play Patrol Clash it’s important

to remember that these games approach

Warhammer 40,000 in a way that was

not originally conceived by the designers.

This means odd stuff will crop up,

TEAM SCENARIOS

Each game can use one of the following

scenarios. To determine the scenario

played, roll a D6 and consult the

following table:

FORWARD PATROL

by Tim Eagling

OVERVIEW

Both sides have unexpectedly collided with an enemy force whilst patrolling a disputed area.

SCENARIO SPECIAL RULES

Patrol missions use the Random Game Length and Infiltrators scenario special rules.

Both players roll a D6; the winner gets to

choose his deployment zone. Units must be

deployed within 12" of the table edge. The player

that scored the lower result now deploys one unit in

his deployment zone. The players take it in turns

deploying a unit at a time until both their entire

forces are on the table.

Deployment zone

12"

No unit can be deployed within 24" of the

enemy at the start of the game (unless the

board is less then 4' deep, then no unit may deploy

within 18").

12"

Deployment zone

If either side has any infiltrators, they may

make one move after deployment but before

the game starts.

Table size for this mission is usually between 4'x4'

and 4'x3'. If using a rectangular table then deploy

along the long edges of the table.

Roll for who gets the first turn. Highest score

may choose whether to go first or second.

MISSION OBJECTIVE

Both players must attempt to eliminate the enemy

without losing too much of their own strength.

RESERVES

None.

When a patrol takes 50% casualties (based on

numerical strength) it must start to take Leadership

tests based on the commander’s ability at the start

of its turn, or break and lose the battle. If neither

force breaks at the end of the game then the patrol

inflicting the most damage in points wins.

GAME LENGTH

The game lasts for a variable number of turns or until

one side is broken.

LINE OF RETREAT

Troops which are forced to fall back will do so

towards the nearest board edge of their deployment

zone, using the normal fall back rules.

SET-UP

WD 284 UK 40K in 40 min 11/5/03 12:44 PM Page 31

THE CAMP

by Paul Bridges, Warren Crowhurst and Simon Odd

OVERVIEW

One force has bunked down for the night in no man’s land, little realising that their foes have their position and are

lying in wait for their opportunity to spring an attack.

SCENARIO SPECIAL RULES

The Camp uses the Strongpoint Attack scenario, with these modifications: The Camp uses the Night Fighting rules, and does

not use the Deep Strike rules. Instead of only the Defender’s Troops, HQ and Heavy Support deploying in the Camp, all his

army is deployed in the Camp. No side uses more than 6 sentries. Every sentry has the stats of an Imperial Guardsman; just

assume the ‘sentries’ are Guardsmen, slaves, servitors, drones, psychic projections of the army’s psyker, etc.

SET-UP

Attackers Deployment Zone

The Camp is a 15" zone in the centre of the

table. The defender sets up his camp as a

15" square zone in the middle of the table. Any

amount of scenery can be placed to represent the

camp.

15"

The Defender positions his sentries. These

are placed within 15" of the outside of the

camp.

15"

The Camp

15"

The Camp itself is a collection of loose

fortifications and picket lines, coupled with a

central billet building in the centre of the camp

itself. The Defender can place as many obstacles

and defendable obstacles in that 15'' zone as he

likes. This building counts as a bunker, but has an

Armour value of 9, and no parapet or firing holes.

15"

Attackers Deployment Zone

MISSION OBJECTIVE

There are no Victory points for destroying/keeping the

Camp; instead, victory conditions are amended as

follows: The Attacker has one aim, and that is to

eliminate or drive off all enemy forces on the table.

The Defender has to hold out fighting until the Attacker

takes 50% casualties and is driven off. To aid him, the

Defender does not have to roll Leadership tests if his

army is reduced to 50% casualties.

RESERVES

None.

GAME LENGTH

The game lasts for five turns once the alarm is raised;

if neither side has been driven off or wiped out in five

turns, the scenario is decided by Victory points.

LINE OF RETREAT

Troops which are forced to fall back will do so towards

the nearest board edge of their deployment zone, using

the normal fall back rules.

SEARCH AND RETRIEVE

by Paul Bridges, Warren Crowhurst and Simon Odd

OVERVIEW

A lost item – an artefact, a holy relic, a high-ranking official – has been lost in no man’s land, and both sides are here

to find it/him and retrieve it/him at all costs!

SCENARIO SPECIAL RULES

Search and Retrieve is a version of Rescue, but has the following two modifications: There are only three objective

markers on the table, and each one is exactly 15" from the other, as close to the centre of the table as possible.

SET-UP

Deployment zone

Before choosing table edges or deploying

any forces the players place 3 counters,

numbered 1 to 3, face down anywhere on the

table, (without looking at the numbers on the

counters!).

Determine which one of these counters is the

objective by rolling a D6. The counter with

that number on it is the real objective and must be

discovered by the armies during the battle.

Both players roll a D6, the player that rolls

highest chooses where he will deploy. He

can choose to either deploy from a corner or a

long board edge; he may not choose a short

board edge. He may deploy up to 12" onto the

board. His opponent gets the opposite deployment zone,

so either both forces start in the corners or along either long board edge.

Deployment zone

Half the table

RESERVES

None.

Both players roll a D6, the lowest roll deploys first. He may set up

any or all of the units from his Troops allowance in his deployment

zone. He does not have to deploy all his Troops, but he must deploy at

least one unit. Any Troops not deployed are in reserve, as is the rest of

his force. The winner then deploys his force.

GAME LENGTH

The game lasts for five turns once

the alarm is raised; if neither side

has been driven off or wiped out

in five turns, the scenario is

decided by Victory points.

Both players roll a D6; the highest score may choose whether to

take the first or second turn.

MISSION

OBJECTIVE

Exit the nearest board edge of your deployment zone with the item.

If one side pulls out due to a failed Leadership test for having less than

50% of his army left, then that side does not win; it abandons the item

on the field, believing it will slow their retreat.

LINE OF

RETREAT

Troops which are forced to fall

back will do so towards the

nearest board edge of their

deployment zone, using the

normal fall back rules.
