Manchester’s 40k Super-Major is stacked top-to-bottom (306 players across 29 factions), but a few names carry extra  gravity this weekend. Whether it’s a top-of-the-table title chase, a breakout into the elite ranks, or a faction pivot that could either look genius or brutal by round three. Before we zoom in, here’s the shape of the battlefield: Necrons  are the biggest chunk of the room ( 25 players | 8.2% ) Space Marines (Astartes)  are close behind ( 21 | 6.9% ) Death Guar
