Warhammer 40k 9th Edition Top ITC Tournament Lists December & January 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 December 2021 and January 2022 up to LVO.
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.
The last two months brings us to the end of the ITC road with Las Vegas opening ending the grand pandemic season in the omicron breeding grounds of Las Vegas!
