Puppies Lead a Slow Weekend : Warhammer 40k Tournament Results

by | Sep 27, 2024

Over the past weekend, 7 large Warhammer 40K events took place, with a minimum of 26 players participating in each event. The process of determining the top three players is based on their win records and total battle points, rather than the strength of their schedule. Throughout the weekend, a total of 21 Warhammer 40K 10th edition lists were featured, representing 14 distinct factions. With summer over, we had a week with the fewest qualifying events in months, and leading the way were the Space Wolves, securing four top-three spots.

While parity has been great for Warhammer 40k, we are not seeing the latest codex make a significant impact on the meta, as Chaos Space Marines and Blood Angels don’t seem to be moving the needle.
