What a fantastic weekend that was! We just wrapped up the UKTC South-Coast Super-Major, one of our most popular events and the biggest event on the south coast! Over 300 players convened for this sell out event, featuring Horus Heresy, Kill Team, and 40k.

A massive thank you to all attendees for making this one of our favourite events to run, and now we get to celebrate all the awards that we were priveliged enough to hand out in the main event.

Two players went undefeated across all 5 regular rounds and 2 games in the top cut. It is my pleasure to present to you the South Coast 2026 Super-Major champion:

Best General: Ross Tully - Vanguard Tactics

Ross' List

T’au Empire

Strike Force (2000 points)

Kroot Hunting Pack

CHARACTERS

Kroot Flesh Shaper (45 points)

Kroot Lone-spear (90 points)

• Enhancement: Kroothawk Flock

Kroot Trail Shaper (75 points)

• Enhancement: Nomadic Hunter

Kroot War Shaper (60 points)

• Enhancement: Root-carved Weapons

BATTLELINE

20 x Kroot Carnivores (140 points)

10 x Kroot Carnivores (65 points)

Kroot Farstalkers (85 points)

Kroot Hounds (40 points)

Krootox Rampagers (170 points)

Krootox Riders (90 points)

Vespid Stingwings (65 points)

Whilst this is the second UKTC super-major that Tau have won in a row, this is a very different style of list, and not a single Twin-Lance to be seen! Ross dominated the field with a horde style kroot list with plenty of screens, OC, and chaff to control the primary backed up with some serious chunk in the form of the rampagers/riders - "Gorillas" as Ross affectionally refers to them. This list has a surprising amount of range damage accessing +1 to hit and wound at certain breakpoints. A unique list and playstyle has seen a great run here consistently scoring 100 points in most of his games.

Runner Up: Mani Cheema - Glasshammer

Mani's List

Space Marines

Ultramarines

Gladius Task Force

Strike Force (2,000 Points)

Captain in Gravis Armour (90 Points)

• Enhancements: Artificer Armour

Cato Sicarius (95 Points)

Marneus Calgar in Armour of Antilochus (140 Points)

Techmarine (70 Points)

• Enhancements: The Honour Vehement

Uriel Ventris (95 Points)

Incursor Squad (80 Points)

Repulsor Executioner (230 Points)

Victrix Honour Guard (220 Points)

Mani ads yet another 7/0 record to his UKTC career, his 12th time doing so! This time with the ultramarines and a very simple list. These are the best things I can get, so im brining as many as I can. Showcasing his piloting skill here taking a very lean list all the way against some of the tournament favourites along the way.
