Competitive Innovations in 9th: Final Quarter pt.1

I will admit that I was a little bit worried the announcement of 10th Edition might mean a slow couple of months, but uh, that does not seem to be happening. Instead, we have a mighty 12 events this...

Competitive Innovations in 9th: Even Angels Fall pt.1

The Balance Dataslate has arrived, about which there is much rejoicing. It wasn't in effect for most of the events this past weekend, about which there is much theatrical booing. Let's see how this seasons villains fared on their final...

Competitive Innovations in 9th: Start Wearing Purple pt.2

Due to ongoing Genestealer Cult activities and the instability unleashed by flagrant misuse of democracy, we've got a few changes of plans today - but from the point of view of our beloved readers they're all good. Life got...

Competitive Innovations in 9th: Peak Warhammer pt.1

How about those Arks of Omen, eh? People sure do seem to love them. This past weekend is, I think, the biggest for tournament play we've ever had other than LGT or LVO weekends, and terrifyingly that's not counting the 300-player...

Competitive Innovations in 9th: Grand Showdown pt.2

Welcome back to part 2 of this week's column, looking at what I think is a Friday record of 6 events (after shuffling to make space for the US Open Showdowns on Wednesday). We're going to be straight into...

Competitive Innovations in 9th: Grand Showdown pt.1

Warhammer - it's the thing that is happening. A lot. Tempting though it is to had the reins to Falcon once more just to see whether he could stretch a Beetleborgs theme out to 10+ events, it's me Wings, I'm...

Erik’s Road to the GW Open Finale, Part 2: Elf Time

Welcome back! Last time I wrote about my abortive attempts at taking space marines to an event in 2022.  This time we see me descend (ascend?) back to Codex Eldar.  At the time that I purchased a ticket I...
