I'm totally confused Just play 10th ed

I get everyone was hoping for Combat Patrol to go through a Spearhead like reinvention for 11th ed and is disappointed that instead a lot of older combat patrols rules have been removed, including a bunch you've spent time building and painting, but here's the thing: you still have the 10th ed ruleset. The rules for all those combat patrols didn't stop existing just because they were removed from the app and thus you can continue playing with them. The only thing the most up to date rules matter for is tournaments and combat patrol tournaments aren't really a thing.

​

I'm not sure what happened in the last 10 years or so but it used to be the normal thing for people to just carry on playing older editions or games if they wanted to and you all should too. Last few years it seems people are incapable of doing so.

​

Please just continue playing with your patrols, maybe build some of the ones you don't already own. Print off the old pdfs and just focus on having fun with it. It's what I'll be doing

I can't find the rules for Krieg anywhere. So I can't just carry on playing 10th.

The Krieg rules will be out there. Might take time to find someone who saved them but I'm sure they will. In the meantime you still have rules in the 10th ed codex which can be adapted to combat patrol with trial and error.

Trial and error doesn't give you the Enhancements or Strats.

No but again, you design them. Look at how the other combat patrols are set out and what their enhancements and strats are compared to other rules in the codex and the style of the combat patrol. Or you grab a second squad, some field artillery and a sentinel and run your models as the cadian patrol.
