Warhammer 40k 9th Edition Top ITC Tournament Lists September 2021
Blood of Kittens attempts to provide continuous coverage of ITC events, in posts showcasing the Top 3 Warhammer 40k 9th edition army lists from the largest events. This particular post chronicles the largest events of September 2021.
9th edition is a land of changes, so with every new month comes new codexes, FAQs, and rules. Whenever you look at an army list keep in mind how quickly the game can change. In other words, a legal army today may become illegal tomorrow, along with events using special rules and/or restrictions.
September 2021 saw a noticeable drop off from August in number of events and a return to Drukhari domination, along with the return of some Ork Waaagh!
