Tomb Kings lead FaceHammer, Skaven win in Lincoln, and Vampire Counts sweep Battle March
Two armies finished with five wins from five at FaceHammer, Skaven took first place at Lincoln’s Fire in the East RTT, and Vampire Counts won all five games at Cheltenham’s Battle March event. Those are the headline stories in our first MMG Fantasy Roundup.

Reporting period: 1–31 October 2026. Research cut-off: 11 November 2026.

FaceHammer: two perfect records, four points apart
FaceHammer brought five rounds of Old World to Element Games Northwest Gaming Centre on 17–18 October. Michal Kubacki’s Tomb Kings of Khemri finished first in the published standings on 79 tournament points, ahead of Tom Brzozowski’s Chaos Dwarfs on 75. Both players completed the weekend with five wins from five.
Pasha Korniyenko’s Jade Fleet took third with four wins and one loss. John Dale’s Wolves of the Sea and Martin Bunting’s Grand Cathay followed in fourth and fifth, also at 4–1–0. Jack Allen’s Renegade Crowns occupied sixth with an unbeaten three-win, two-draw record.
FaceHammer’s event pack used a 20–0 scoring system based on victory-point difference, with tournament points determining placings. The margins of victory therefore separated the two five-win finishes. The pack also included composition restrictions, house rules and a 2,200-point allowance for selected armies.
There was plenty of variety throughout the field, including Chracian Warhost, Troll Horde, Royal Clan, Bretonnian Exiles and Knightly Order entries.

Matthew Williets finished first with Skaven (Renegades), winning all three games. Danilo Melo’s Empire of Man also went 3–0–0 and placed second. Harry Yates completed the podium with Errantry Crusade, recording two wins and a draw.
Jonathan Quinn’s Ogre Kingdoms (Renegades) matched that unbeaten 2–0–1 record in fourth. The wider field included Lizardmen, Chaos Dwarfs and Daemons of Chaos entries carrying the Renegades label, alongside Wood Elf Realms and Tomb Kings of Khemri.

What we’re watching
Will November bring repeat podium finishes for October’s leading players, or a different set of names at the top? We’ll be looking for returning contenders across both larger Old World tournaments and Battle March.
We’re also looking for more verified Age of Sigmar and Spearhead results to bring into the next edition, giving readers more fantasy events, armies and players to follow.
Help us fill the gaps
