The desire to play with these new units, new factions and new rules is high, especially within a game as healthy in its competitive environment as Age of Sigmar. Games Workshop has not stopped its release train, however although the publisher has slowed down its release frequency from a pre-order every week to one every other week, rules and models are still coming out. Face-to-face interactions are not possible right now, and for the last 12 months, in-person games of Warhammer have been few and far between across the world. Players are able to scan in their real-life miniatures to show off paint jobs and conversions. Warhammer: Age of Sigmar, Games Workshop’s Fantasy Battle replacement that got off to a shaky start in 2015, has become one of the more popular tournament games of recent years. Until 2020, one scene in particular had been incredibly healthy, not only in the UK, but worldwide.
It's so great a joy, in fact, that regular tournaments are held across the country by many different groups, from the official Warhammer events orchestrated by Games Workshop at its Lenton Lane headquarters in Nottingham to the wide variety of tournaments by the various independent scenes in the UK.
Despite the occasional awkwardness, the fun of rolling dice, pushing around minis, and laughing as you share in a succession of triumphs and failures is for many the peak of the hobby that they are involved in. Figuring out a way to transport a force of delicate minis is another hobby in and of itself, especially as companies like Games Workshop keep making more and more elaborate minis - such as the Void Dragon and Morathii - that are a challenge to put in any kind of carry case. Rules formalise interactions with strangers, allowing you to have a great experience with all of the checks and balances worked out for you.ĭespite all the upsides, miniature wargaming can have its drawbacks. It is something you do in person with friends. One of the biggest benefits of tabletop gaming is that it is a social event.
