Winning a Super-major is something that ultimately, the vast majority of players will not achieve, so those that do have already set themselves ahead of the group. To win multiple is a reserved to an even smaller handful of players, and to do it back to back to back is something even more special. This weekend Innes Wilson took down his 3rd UKTC super-major in as many runs. A phenomenal achievement in itself, and made even more impressive by the fact that each title has been

With pairings now live for the first round of the Sheffield Super-Major 2026 we really start to feel the anticipation build. The meta is still settling after a recent slate but there are some continuing trends and some new factions seeing spikes in popularity. This article is going to look at a few players that I have picked to keep an eye on and expect to be seeing at the top tables this weekend. First lets take a quick reminder of the overall faction spread: At a Glance Spa

The Windsor Super-Major saw nearly 250 players start, but only 2 players remained undefeated across all 7 rounds that they played. Both piloting the Ultramarines with some very similar choices, this article is going to take some time to break down the undefeated lists from the weekend and what makes them such a threat when played to this level. Our undefeated players were Nassim Fouchane and David Gaylard, their lists are: Nassim's List Lieutenant with Combi-weapon Marneus Ca

The Windsor Super-Major was epic! A fantastic debut for our all new UKTC tournament, the event saw nearly 300 Warhammer 40,000, Kill Team, and Old World players convene to battle it out over 2 days of amazing tabletop action. This was a great example of the best parts of the UKTC: meeting old friends, making new ones, and having a great time overall. Whilst everyone played, only two players went undefeated in the 40k main event. Battling it out through 5 rounds of regular pla

With pairings now live for the first round of the Windsor Super-Major 2026 the hype is real, only a few days to go until nearly 250 competitors descend and start competing for the first victory in the UKTCs latest new event! This article is going to look at a few players that I have picked to keep an eye on and expect to be seeing at the top tables this weekend. First lets take a quick reminder of the overall faction spread: At a Glance Space marines and Necrons are the most

Part of what makes UKTC events run smoothly at scale is the work of our judge team. Supported by the judge programme, we aim to raise the bar. Our judges work hard to deliver consistent, clear, and impartial rulings and game management across every round. The result is a better experience for everyone: clearer resolutions to rules questions, reduced friction at the table, and a fair competitive environment where the focus stays on the game and the fun. If you are newer to com

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

If you’ve been keeping even half an eye on the UKTC 2025/2026 season , you might already know this, the top positions are tight, and the mid-table is crowded. One big weekend can rewrite both. And that’s why The Manchester GT: Winter  is shaping up to be one of those “you’ll wish you’d been there” moments. UKTC seasons run from the day after the LGT to the following LGT , and your season score is built from the points you earn at UKTC-registered events. All registered events

With list submission locked for the Manchester 40K Winter GT, we can take a first look at the roster and the story about what players expect to be good. Currently there are 306 Players with only a small handful not having submitted a list - means we can get a pretty good look at how the meta is shaping up. The big picture First up, let's take a look at the whole field. Here’s the split by the macro factions buckets: Faction Players Share % Imperium 122 40.4 Xenos 97 32.1 Cha

Winter ITT is the kind of event that exposes everything. With 150+ teams  in the room and 1,885 individual games  played over the weekend, you don’t “ride” a good matchup or sneak through on reputation, you have to keep producing results round after round. And at the very top of that pressure cooker, Veizla  didn’t just win - they dominated . They finished as the only 6–0 team  at the entire event, beating Team Sigil  in the final. The Veizla headline numbers Veizla’s weekend

Winter ITT didn’t just hand out a trophy. It rewrote the UKTC National Team Rankings . When an event is this big, the rankings don’t move politely. They surge . Teams that showed up and scored points didn’t just climb, they flew up the ladder. And the teams that didn’t attend didn’t “stand still”… they got overtaken in bulk. Here’s what the numbers say. The headline stats: Teams now ranked:   203 Teams with an Autumn ITT result:   115 Teams with a Winter ITT result:   152 Tea

The WINTER INTERNATIONAL TEAM TOURNAMENT has concluded, and what an event it was!

A truly iconic necron scheme, incredib

The WINTER INTERNATIONAL TEAM TOURNAMENT has concluded, with the visiting Swedes claiming the trophy at the BIGGEST team event in the world. A weekend full of memories, fun, and friendship.

Lists for The UKTC Winter International Teams Tournament (ITT) are now live, with list checking underway.

With 158 registered teams, this event boasts a 790 total player sign up, making it the biggest teams event in the world. The first look for this gives us a clear and interesting read of what is popular. At a glance, the faction distribution across

If you’ve only played singles events, a teams round at a UKTC ITT can feel like a magic trick. You arrive at your table thinking, “Cool , I’m playing Warhammer.” Then the captains step away, shuffle some paper, pull out their phones, and start whispering like it’s a poker final… suddenly you realise you’re also playing a second game. One that happens before dice hit the table and often decides what “good” looks like for your whole round. That’s the pairings process. At UKTC

In singles 40k, list building is mostly about your consistency : can you play into the field, across missions, without falling over? In teams, list building is about your intent : what matchups do you want  to create, what matchups do you refuse , and what score do you need  each table to deliver when the draft doesn’t go your way. That’s why teams players don’t talk about “bringing a strong list.” They talk about bringing a roster . And with the UKTC Winter ITT  almost here,
