3rd Place: Ben Jones – Genestealer Cults
2nd Place: Stephen Box – Sisters of Battle
1st Place: Nassim Fouchane – Imperial Guard
Nassim’s winning Guard list was led by Leontus for his great stats and abilities, while a Tempestus and Platoon Command squad both bring in surprisingly good bodies and can dish out Orders. The final leader is a Tank Commander, which again brings orders output, but this time, it is also a tank with its durability and ranged firepower.
Three units of Jungle Fighters act as the basic bodies in the list to help push up and soak wounds or capture objectives.
Two units of Bullgryn act as slightly beefier infantry options to push up with the front lines. A Hellhound is the first piece of armor, which can help target units behind cover, while two Leman Russ bring in more standard battle tank chassis for some ranged firepower.
A single Exterminator adds another tank chassis with different weapon options. Two Ogryn units brought two more front-line Infantry, while two units of Aquilons and a single unit of Scions act as a more elite version of guard bodies with decent ranged firepower.
In conclusion, The Coventry 3-Day showcased some impressive Warhammer 40k army lists, with a focus on Imperial Guard, Sisters of Battle, and Genestealer Cults. The top three players demonstrated strategic diversity and skillful use of their chosen factions, emphasizing the importance of mobility, melee prowess, and durable monstrous units.
Whether you’re a veteran player or just getting started playing Warhammer 40k, there’s a lot to learn from these top-tier tactics and compositions.
