40K Narrative Weekend Event [Oct 17-18 2026]

What to expect?

What to I need to Play?

Unlike a competitive event that has a pre-set number of games and a fixed schedule, this narrative event has an official start and end time, but you play as many games as you like within that window. This allows you to play at your own pace, take breaks or even leave early if your personal schedule requires. The event is an ongoing narrative event and the matches from previous event days shape and inform the event you are attending.

You only need a minimum of 1000 Points of models for any faction! Then you dive into 3-way games, doubles, 2v1’s and allies arriving late to the fray in a Dynamic Battles system! 

At the start of the event, you will join one of our 3 teams (Imperium, Chaos & Xenos) and will meet with one of our event organizers. 

A narrative event is an event where the actions of players will have an impact on the ongoing story. You do not have to role-play or do funny voices (although we support any role-play. Go on…. WAAAGGGGH loudly, or scream THE EMPEROR PROTECTS when you roll that 6); the goal is to have players make choices in game fitting of their faction/warlord, for example fighting tooth and nail versus Tyranids to stop them devouring a planet.

NEW Event Pack – 11th edition is here – and the new rules will influence how we play on these Narrative Weekends – so checkout the new EVENT PACK here.
