  • Banding will only be used for the Warhammer Fantasy GT.

    Banding is decided by 9 judges from all over the world.  These judges are tournament veterans and have different opinions on what is good, bad, and ugly. The idea is you wont be judged based on 1 particular groups biases and will have a wealth of experience and backgrounds going into the decisions.

    There is no cookie cutter formula to the bands.  Each list is evaluated on his own merit. The judges presume the worst possible use of your lists (aka 5 blocks of 25 thunderers that are themed for the Civil War will still be graded on what the list potentially could do).
