Slow Start to the New Season: Warhammer 40k Tournament Results

by | Feb 5, 2023

Last weekend, four large Warhammer 40K events took place with at least 26 players competing in 5 rounds. A total of 12 lists were used, with 11 different factions represented. It is hard to draw any conclusions from the week, as everyone was still in a Las Vegas Open 2023 hangover. However, if you look closely, the Space Marines had a good weekend.

Besides Space Marines, nothing really stands out. What was missing were any Custodes and Squats, which were doing well in the early Arks of Omens events. We can also expect Imperial Guard to show up, as well as a boom of World Eaters in a few weeks. However, don’t expect that to last long.
