GW Tournaments Continue Into Next Year

Now let’s dive into the details and go through them in order. We’ll be passing over some of the smaller games but they do have stuff for a lot of the boxed games. 

GW tournamentsPut your armies through the ultimate test of camaraderie in an exciting two-on-two matched play tournament for Warhammer Age of Sigmar.

Unfortunately, it looks as of right now, there will only be a doubles tournament. However, if you’ve never played a doubles tournament, they are super fun and totally make for a fun day with a friend. It’s also a good way to work out some quirks in the new edition before you venture into it on your own!

You can get your tickets here for £90.

GW tournaments 2Team up with your closest ally and dominate the competition across five rounds of intense Warhammer 40,000 matched play action.

With five rounds of action, you are in for a pretty long day. If you don’t feel like playing with a friend, they will also be running a singles tournament as well. Hopefully, by then a few more armies have their books and it will have some good variety.

You can get your tickets here for £90.

GW tournaments 4Like Blood Bowl? Love Bugman’s? Combine the two for an evening of bone-crunching fantasy football, plus watch Super Bowl LVI live!

If you’re in the UK and want to watch the Super Bowl at the same time, this is going to be the perfect event! You can crush your enemies on the pitch then watch probably not your favorite team win the Super Bowl. Because let’s be honest, when does your favorite team actually win? (Don’t tell us about Tom Brady, we get it)

You can get your tickets here for £40.

GW tournaments 3Knuckle down and claim a place among champions in the next matched play tournament for Warhammer 40,000. Can you best the Grand Tournament Mission Pack and emerge victorious?

If you’ve been itching for a big event to break out your army and whoop up on some people, then this is perfect! Even if you don’t think you’re going to kick butt, tournaments are still fun.

You can get your tickets here for £65.
