The Official GT Army Drops down to 1750pts for the 2018/2019 Season



Time to drop point values, as the upcoming season of GTs at Warhammer World will be going down to 1750pts. Now for many people here in the US or elsewhere this is not a big deal, but I still recall the love I had for 2,500pt games back in the Ard Boyz events.


Here is the official announcement

This year the Grand Tournament will consist of 4 Heats and a Grand Final. Each Heat is an individual tournament, an esteemed event with epic battles fought and worthy winners crowned. At the end of each heat we will rank players overall and the top players from each heat will qualify for the final – a mighty achievement in itself. The Grand Final will consist of the top players from each heat and will be held at the end of the season. It will establish the final rankings for the top Warhammer 40,000 players for 2018/2019. The events are as follows:

Heat 1: 7th-8th July 2018
