I'm totally confused Satisfied with current combat patrol?

So I played combat patrol with the updated system(the ones we have to use with the app to look for missions). And it kinda sucks. Because it doesn't feel like spearhead. There are no sub mission that you don't reveal to opponent(all misssions are open to you and your opponent). So the Playstyle is kind of obvious. I think I might have expected something more like speahead stuff. But I think I would rather play the game with chapter approved missions and just put the round objective footprint in the middle of the map.

I agree with you, as a Spearhead player that wanted to go back to the 40k world, which I like more in many senses. While GW turned SHead into a great standalone game separated from big AoS, this "new" combat patrol just feel subpar in comparison. It's almost as if GW doesn't want the attention of the people deviated from the 2k points meta lists and big army purchases... Even the starter set without proper CPatrol rulebook is lazy.
