The Birmingham GT 2026 Results, Podium, and Awards

A classic venue, a new edition and a fantastic weekend of competitive Warhammer. Nearly 200 players joined us in Birmingham for 5 rounds of intense competition, making our first event of 11th one to remember!

Best General - Sam Nash

Sam Nash claims the Birmingham GT trophy with a perfect 5-0 record.

Running a unique Thousand Sons build featuring both the Hexwarp Thrallband and Sekhetar Cohort detachments, Sam combined the devastating shooting of three units of Sekhetar Robots with a Defiler that consistently disrupted his opponents' plans. The combination proved incredibly difficult to answer throughout the weekend.
