What a fantastic Bank Holiday weekend the 2026 Bristol GT was! We had over 330 players from all over the world attend for 6 rounds of Warhammer 40k, This is our regular post to celebrate all the winners and awards that we present over the weekend.

Best General - Eirik Rokne Stensland

Once again, the UKTC draws some world-class international competition, with Eirik travelling over from Norway with the Emperor's Children to take down his first UKTC super major.

Dropping only 26 points across the whole event, Eirick had a fantastic showing with his Coterie of the Conceited Emperors Children, taking down some stiff competition thanks to his combination of Defiliers, Daemon Princes, and Lord Exultants allowing some extreme melee pressure backed up with exceptional quality shooting. To quote - "The list goes full psycho mode from the start."

Eirik's List

1x Daemon Prince of Slaanesh with Wings

Pledge of eternal servitude

1x Daemon Prince of Slaanesh with Wings

1x Lord Exultant

1x Lucius the Eternal

5x Infractors

5x Tormentors

3x Flawless Blades

1x Defiler

1st Runner Up - Mani Cheema

Mani showing up for the books once again, adding another undefeated run at a UKTC super major to his cabinet. This time with Pactbound zealots, leaning hard into the defiler output and access to critical hits on 5s. Seeing him blast apart the competition, including fellow event favourite, Nassim Fouchane in a nail-bitingly close game.
