Games Workshop

"2 boxes of assault intercessors with jump packs (for death company), astorath or lemartes to lead them."
·
"If not possible, the old one because of the Ghostkeel! This model is so cool!"
·
"Not only is it worth it but get two of them."
·
"Yes, get 2."
·
"Perfect for the start to 2k... get it before they get nerfed"
·
"BT combat patrol is one of the better CP boxes going around I reckon."
·
"It’s a really good box for marines in general."
·
"Yes it's a good deal. Among the different Space Marine combat patrols it's probably the best there is right now."
·
"Very worth it from what I gather."
·
"Yes it's worth it. And it comes with the upgrade kit as well which I didn't know until I bought it."

"The old combat patrol is the best value combat patrol in the game, quite possibly."
·
"I'd say the absolute best one is if you're lucky enough to find the old Blood Angels Combat Patrol."
·
"I bought old DA patrol, with redemptor. That was box worth buying."
·
"Blood angels is really good. I would recommend that one before it gets swapped out eventually."
·
"The old one is better in any other circumstance and will also dumpster the new one."
·
"Blood angels for sure. Or the Dark Angels, if you can find it."
·
"Dark Angels hands down. Then Blood angels."
·
"Dark angels is pretty nasty, redemptor is unkillable in combat patrol."
·
"New one is really fun to play though, so if you are only doing combat patrol I recommend it."
·
"I think the Dark Angel box is very tempting."
·

"Personally go with the first one, you have a lot of good units in it."
·
"But the one with ghost keel, since its your last chance!"
·
"If you can swing it I would get both."
·
"The first one should be stronger out the box and is discontinued."
·
"I'd buy the first one, because it's quite good and OOP."
·
"I have that one and I find it to be a very nice set."
·
"The first one is better when playing the combat patrol rules."

"The simple answer is the new Combat Patrol you mentioned and the box of Crisis suits I already suggested."
·
"Tbh, getting the new combat patrol and a box of Crisis suits to go with it. That would be a pretty good Kauyon or Mont'Ka list to work from and would be a great purchase."
·
"New combat patrol is good and should be high up the list."
·
"The new combat patrol doesn't overlap with the old one at all except for Fire Warriors."
·
"New combat patrol is good, I'd recommend some tanks and crisis suits personally."
·
"New combat patrol is pretty good but it overlaps a lot with the old, might be nice to get some suits like crisis or broadsides."

Dark Angels

"If you can get your hands on the previous combat patrol Dark Angels, you’ll be going in the right direction."
·
"As an Imperial Fists player I started with 2 Dark Angels Combat Patrol boxes. Thst way you get 2 dreads, 10 intercessors, 6 inceptors then sell one of the two Chaplains."

"I still think the CP box is a good buy for you."
·
"I think either option is fine, but the cp is better value overall."
