The greatest narrative Warhammer event of the year is only three short weeks away, and there are just 10 tickets left at the time of writing.
Starting on the 16th of November, the Grand Narrative is an immersive Warhammer campaign experience, stretching across three days* of narrative games set in war rooms that look, feel, and even smell like their canonical setting. This year’s event takes players to the mysterious world of Occultaris – a planet at the edge of a system being devoured by the Tyranids – where myriad forces fleeing Hive Fleet Leviathan find themselves inexplicably lured by arcane forces, overwhelming intuition, or the whispered pleas for help from a presence known only as the Command Entity.
As well as a whole weekend of exciting campaign action with like-minded Crusade fans, you’ll help to forge the ongoing narrative of Warhammer 40,000 as the outcome of the Grand Narrative will help shape future stories. If you’ve ever wanted to make your own mark on the 41st Millennium, this is the event for you.
Your ticket isn’t just an access pass to the event, either – you’ll also get a handy tote bag full of great Warhammer swag, from Warhammer Open objective tokens and mission cards to a mystery pin badge and a quality water bottle. To pick up your own tickets, and access briefings filled with background information on Occultaris and the dramatis personae you’ll encounter, head to the event page below.
Alongside the Grand Narrative, the World Championships of Warhammer promise an amazing weekend of competitive gameplay across a whole weekend of Warhammer 40,000, Warhammer Age of Sigmar, Kill Team, and Warhammer: Underworlds. Participants have earned their place in over 300 qualifying events worldwide, representing 37 countries, and here at Warhammer Community we’ll have some of the spiciest moments right from the tournament floor. You can follow along at home with a unique event format that tracks individual and country performances across all four game systems.
Warhammer World Events
Assemble a 1,500 point Crusade force for some weekday action at Warhammer World, over three friendly games of Warhammer: The Horus Heresy. Clash of Arms is a casual-competitive event for players of all skill levels, so spend the day with like-minded hobbyists and see how your Legion fare against their Loyalist and Traitor brothers.
February 2024 kicks off with a clash between vicious Warcry warbands in The Ferocious Gnarlwood – a five-match rumble of fast-paced action for fame and glory. Just bring a 1,000 point warband of your finest fighters, and you could be in with a chance of winning the coveted Favourite Warband award.
Pair the bone-crunching gridiron action of Blood Bowl with the real-life sport that was clearly inspired by Nuffle’s teachings in the Bugman’s Belter, which dovetails a series of Blood Bowl games with a night of merriment watching Super Bowl LVIII. Just draft a team worth 1,200,000 gold pieces and push for the cup in three action-packed games.
Bring your best 2,000 point army out for a gripping two-day tournament event as the Warhammer 40,000 Grand Tournament returns to Warhammer World. You’ll play in five battles over the weekend with categories for Best Painted Army, Favourite Opponent, and Favourite Army awards. Did we mention lunch is included?
Prefer your Middle-earth Strategy Battle Games smaller and fast-paced? Come down to Warhammer World for three friendly weekday games as any one of your 500-point armies locks shields with your rivals. Looking to try out a new force before the Grand Tournament or get to grips with a brand new faction? This is the place.
Muster your forces of Good and Evil for a massive weekend of competitive Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game action. You’ll need a force of 700 points for both sides, battling across three games each until the ultimate victor is crowned – both on the field of battle and in the gruelling crucible of the Best Painted Army.
* Games will take place on the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, with an optional registration and briefing on Thursday.
