So over the last weekend, Kendal (UK) played host to latest in the series of A Gathering of Might (AGOM) Warhammer events.   Adam Turner (@WORGORE) always puts on a great event and it looked like another success this year based on the Twitter coverage.  In this post, I’ll cover the pack, results and the top Age of Sigmar lists.

Adam would also like to thank:

• Alex for his amazing raffle army;
• Edward for being our van driver/muscle; and
• Garry, Tom , and Rebecca for their hard work on the bar all weekend.

Check out the AGOM website and events Facebook page for all the details of future events if you are keen to attend.

AGOM XXI: Age of Sigmar pack

AGOM XXI was played over 5 games using the General’s Handbook 2017 scenarios (rolled before each round).  There are a few house rules of interest, including the use of some specialist terrain warscrolls, setting the timing for when mysterious terrain needs to be rolled for in the hero phase,  and magic automatically failing to cast on a natural double 1 (regardless of modifiers).  The scoring system was a straight 2 points for a win, 1 point for a draw and 0 for a loss, with no distinction between major and minor results.  You can check out the full pack.

AGOM XXI: Age of Sigmar results

• Lord of AGOM and Best Order: Darryl Jones (Daughters of Khaine)
• Second and Best Chaos: Steve Sanderson (Maggotkin)
• Third: Liam Watt
• Best Death: Nathan Watson (8th Overall)
• Best Destruction: Lyndon Sinclair (13th Overall)

• The Brotherhood Award (Best Team): Black Knights
• Warrior of Honour (Best Sports): Richard Elsdon (with a Dwarf gunline!!!!)
• Best Painted: Graham Shirlie

For more coverage of Graham’s beautiful army, check out his showcase on the Warhammer Community site!

Here are pictures of the other nominated armies for Best Painted.

AGOM XXI: top Age of Sigmar lists

As always, people are interested in the top Age of SIgmar lists.  Now this is probably one of the last significant two day events before Age of Sigmar Second Edition (with the exceptions of Nashcon, Bugeater and Badgacon) so we can expect things to shake up soon.

Steve Sanderson – Tzeentch Changehost

Liam Watt – Mixed Chaos

Tony Moore – Idoneth Deepkin (Ionrach)

Nigel Chorlton – Archaon Tzeentch

Richard Hudspith – Seraphon

The South Coast GT has long been the premier Warhammer Fantasy event in the UK.  Hosted by Dan, Wayne and Russ of the Heelanhammer and Facehammer podcasts, this year was the South Coast GT’s 10th running and 100 players turned up for some matched play Age of Sigmar.  This attendance was actually down on previous years due to an unfortunate change of date, resulting in clashes with Warhammer Fest 2018 on the same weekend and the London Grand Tournament (another 100 player event) the week after.

However, the event still looked like an absolute blast and the event is still growing from strength to strength with the expanded painting competition and more live coverage this year.  Check out the videos over on the Heelanhammer YouTube channel.  You can also find more coverage and pictures over on Warhammer Community.

South Coast GT 2018 Pack

The South Coast GT was 6 games of 2,000 point Age of Sigmar matched play featuring both General’s Handbook and Malign Portents scenarios (Dark Omen and Heralds of Woe).  The full pack can be found here.

The guys also run a narrative event that sits as a layer over the top of the matched play gaming – their narrative bingo.  The aim being to cross off as many of the challenges on the bingo card during your games.  No points for doing so, just the satisfaction of a job well done and the laughs from the events on the tabletop.

South Coast GT 2018 – Results

I’ve taken the overall results from Warscore and added them into a Google Sheet so you can sort away to your heart’s content, but the top awards were:

• Winner: Jack Armstrong (Vanguard Wing)
• Second: Chris Myhill (Mixed Order)
• Third: Darren Watson (Plaguetouched with Archaon)
• Order: Jack Armstrong
• Death: Pete Scholey
• Chaos: Darren Watson
• Destruction: Ian Spink

Jack’s list was Castellant (Lantern), General Venator, Heraldor, Spellweaver, Frost Phoenix, Vanguard Wing, 5 Liberators, and 10 Skinks.

I don’t have the details of Chris’ list but I understand it was a real mix of Order units – Dragonlord, Eidolon, an Akhelian King, Skinks, Bolt Throwers, and some Dwarf Warriors.

Darren’s list was:

I’ll have a list tech interview with Darren Watson coming soon.

South Coast GT 2018 – Painting

The South Coast GT is also usually where all the best painted armies and display boards come out.  The tournament has seen great armies from around the UK (and abroad), most notably Steve Foote’s repeated entries which have taken out the “Coolest Army” awards in successive years.  Steve’s entries are usually complete with not only an epic display board but also a full table of terrain, a themed costume, narrative, a full-scale advertising campaign in the lead up to the event, videos, magazines and sound effects.

Now, for all the best painting coverage this year, check out the Pro Painted Podcast, a great Age of Sigmar podcast dedicated to painting – it really is worth a listen.  Plus Matt and the guys are hosting pictures of the best painted armies from the event over on their site.  While you are over there, check out the From Ember to Inferno campaign armies.  There are also a tonne of pictures on Twitter, just search for the hastag #SGCT2018.

The painting awards were:

• Coolest: Mike Burgess
• First: Matt Lyons
• Second: Ian Hannam
• Third: Terry Pike
• Hero: Les Martin
• Unbound: Mat Rogers
• Chosen: Ian Hannam
• Godbeast: Matt Lyons
• Best in show: Terry Pike

Hey there everyone, the Brew City Brawl was run over the weekend of April 28/29 2018 in Milwaukee.  Not only was it a great Age of Sigmar tournament, but the gamers also raised over $2,000 for Prevent Suicide Greater Milwaukee – an excellent cause and what a great effort.  Congrats to Brendan Melnick and the Guys from Milwaukee.

The event was a five game, 2,000 point tournament with missions taken from the 2016 and 2017 General’s Handbooks, as well as secondary objectives.  Check out the pack.

This last weekend, the first Blood Tithe was held – an international Age of Sigmar team tournament held in London, United Kingdom involving twenty teams of four people playing five games, 2000pts, General’s Handbook 2017 matched play.  The event was run by Marc Wilson in a great debut event, in association with the South London Legion, Gamemat.eu, Dark Satanic Mills (terrain) and the London Grand Tournament.

In this post, you’ll find the Age of Sigmar team tournament pack, entrants, the Age of Sigmar lists from each team and the overall results.  Check out Marc’s Twitter feed and #bloodtithe for great photos and coverage of the weekend.

Finally, I’ve been compiling an international Age of Sigmar tournament pack and list archive to be a resource for Age of Sigmar players and tournament organisers.  If you are running an event, I’d love for you to get in touch, either through this site or Twitter, so I can share your event, pack and lists.

Blood Tithe, Age of Sigmar team tournament pack

Blood Tithe was a 5 game , 4-man team tournament, using a “Swiss Pairings” method for determining opponents from Round 2 onwards.

Age of Sigmar team pairings system

Like all team tournaments, a pairings system was used for the teams to determine individual match-ups within each round.   The aim for each team is to engineer the most favourable match-ups for their team on average (which can often mean some poor team member has to take one for the team in a very hard game).  This is how the pairings system worked at Blood Tithe:

• Each team was given four cards marked on the reverse with one of with their four armies.
• Team A – Chaos, Blades of Khorne, Stormcast, Destruction
• Team B – Death, Order, Fyreslayers, Sylvaneth
• Team A chooses to put forward Chaos (presented face down)
• Team B chooses to put forward Order (presented face down)
• Selections are revealed
• Team A chooses to put down Blades of Khorne and Stormcast as options to play against  the Order (presented face down)
• Team B chooses to put down Death and Sylvaneth as options to play against Chaos (presented face down)
• Choices revealed 
• Team A chooses between Death and Sylvaneth as to who Chaos will face, let͛’s say Death.
• Team B chooses between Blades of Khorne and Stormcast as to who Order will face; let͛’s say Blades of Khorne.
• Choices are revealed
• The choice Team A refused faces the remaining card in Team B͛’s hand – Destruction
• The choice Team B refused faces the remaining army in Team A͛’s hand – Fyreslayers
• Resulting in:
  • Chaos v Death
  • Order v Blades of Khorne
  • Sylvaneth v Destruction
  • Fyreslayers v Stormcast

Age of Sigmar team list restrictions

There were also a couple of rules regarding list selection to encourage inventive team list design.  The fun of team tournaments is crafting a balanced set of lists across the team which can be paired into favourable match-ups.

• No two armies on the same team may have a duplicate warscroll, nor a duplicate allegiance.

• Units added via reserve points are not subject to these restrictions.

Secret Missions

As well as the five General’s Handbook 2017 scenarios, the event also had secret missions in play.   Each team was presented with a deck of four custom Secret Mission cards (identical for each team).  Before each game, but after individual pairings, these cards had to be divided up within the team before each game with each player receiving a maximum of two and minimum of zero cards.  As is clear from the name, players would keep these missions secret until they were achieved, at which point, they were revealed to their opponents.

• Secret Mission 1: Incalculable numbers – Destroy any three enemy Battleline units.
• Secret Mission 2: Precision Strike – Destroy the enemy General and / or two enemy Leader warscrolls by the end of battleround two.
• Secret Mission 3: Bring down the beast – Destroy an enemy Behemoth with a Battleline unit in the Combat Phase.
• Secret Mission 4: Sustained Attack – Destroy any two enemy units during your own turn – either by killing them or causing them to flee to battleshock. You must reveal this card in the turn in which yo u attempt it, at the beginning of the hero phase, before any other actions are taken.

Team scoring system

The following scoring system was in play.

• Major Win: 30
• Minor Win: 20
• Draw: 15
• Minor Loss: 10
• Major Loss: 5
• Secret Mission 5 (per mission)

Individual player points were capped at 30 points per round.  Total team points per round were capped at 100/50.

• Tie Breaker 1 – Uncapped TP total.
• Tie Breaker 2 – Most Secret Missions TPs.
• Tie Breaker 3 – Most Major Victories.

For more information, you can find a full copy of the pack here (Blood Tithe Pack) and full details and discussion over at TGA.

Hey there everyone!  The Mile High Massacre was run and won over the weekend of 3/4 March 2018 in Castle Rock, Colorado, USA.  In this post, you’ll find the tournament lists, results and all the details of the tournament pack.

Congratulations to Chad Graham for hosting a great event, Andrew Standiferd for taking out Best Overall and Elric Edge for taking out Best Tactician.   Check out their Twitter feeds for great photos and coverage of the event.

Finally, I’ve been compiling an international Age of Sigmar tournament pack and list archive to be a resource for Age of Sigmar players and tournament organisers.  If you are running an event, I’d love for you to get in touch, either through this site or Twitter, so I can share your event, pack and lists.

Mile High Massacre: Age of Sigmar tournament pack

Mile High Massacre was a 2000 points, five round tournament using the following scenarios:

• Three Places of Power – Original GHB
• Battle for the Pass – GHB 2017
• Starstrike – GHB 2017
• Dark Omens – Malign Portents
• Heralds of Woe – Malign Portents

As well as the great mix of scenarios, it had a really interesting pack.  You could earn a maximum of 200 battlepoints over the five games (100 scenario points, 50 kill points, and 50 mission points).

• Scenario points were awarded on a 20/0 (Major Victory), 14/6 (Minor Victory) and 10/10 (Draw) basis;
• Kill points were awarded on a bracket system depending on the difference in points killed; and
• Mission points were awarded for completing a mission which you would randomly select from either the easy, moderate or difficult objective piles.

The pack also contained a great painting checklist if you are looking for inspiration for a tournament you wish to run.

So the Las Vegas Open Age of Sigmar Championships was held over the weekend in, you guessed it, Las Vegas.  Warhammer Live and the Warhammer Community team were there in attendance and you can check out all the coverage over on the Warhammer Live Twitch channel.

Las Vegas Open Age of Sigmar Championships

Before we get into the army lists, a big congratulations to Scott Reed (the tournament organiser), Elric Edge (of the Rolling Bad podcast) and everyone else who worked so hard to put on an excellent event.  90+ gamers, including some travelling Brits, having a great weekend of Age of Sigmar.

Now the Las Vegas Open Age of Sigmar Championships were held over 7 rounds, using 2,000 point armies in General’s Handbook 2017 scenarios.  The pack can be found here and here.

Las Vegas Open – the results

I don’t have the full results, or all the award placings, but Samuel Valdez (who attended the event) kindly sent me through the top 10 and the lists.  Once I get a chance, I will try to add all the remaining lists into the list archive, and provide some commentary on the top 10.

Drumroll please….

So the final standings were:

• Andrew Standiferd – Vanguard Wing
• James Thomas – Changehost
• Tony Moore – Changehost
• Oliver Gandouet – Mixed Order
• Michael Burch – Skyfires
• Joe Krier – Changehost
• Bill Souza – Nurgle
• Jarrett Zazuetta – “Kroak-nado”
• Jeff Paynter – Skyfires
• Mike Scaletti – Gore Pilgrims

*get in touch and let me know the Twitter handles of the people I’ve missed.

Perhaps unsurprising, Disciples of Tzeentch were the power to be reckoned with.  No change there….

The top army lists at LVO 2018
