Warhammer 40K League
5/13 - 6/24/25
Tuesdays

  • Quick links
  • Registration
  • Join our Discord!

Tuesdays are the official game night as 40k has reserved table space at Atomic and players should be generally available on Tuesday. There are two makeup weeks in the schedule for missed games due to travel, work, family circumstances, etc.

Coordination for the league will be done via the Atomic Empire Discord. Once you join, be sure to select the "40K" role in the #roles-notify channel.

League matchups and scores will be posted in a Google spreadsheet.


Game Size and Army Construction

  • Strike Force (2000 points), no Legends, following Muster Armies steps from the Pariah Nexus Tournament Companion.

  • All games will be played according to Pariah Nexus Tournament Companion. All games will use the PNTC mission sequence adjustments, secondary objective updates, and FAQs. All missions will be drawn from the suggested missions in the Companion.

  • FAQs, errata, new codex releases, and points updates will be implemented immediately.

  • There will be 6 total missions. Tuesday is the official league day at Atomic and there will be reserved table space. While it is expected that players are available on Tuesdays, missed games can be made up by the players at any time or during the makeup week.

  • Lists may be altered between weeks. However, list tailoring is strongly discouraged.

  • Players may switch factions after Game 3.

  • After week 4 the league will have a single elimination, top 8 to determine placing. Lists for the top 8 will be locked. If you are not playing in the top 8, you may alter your lists between weeks.

  • Pairings and league coordination will be done on the Atomic Empire discord.

Schedule

  • Game 1: May 13

  • Game 2: May 20

  • Game 3: May 27

  • Open play/makeup: June 3

Details for Games

  • Games will be played as 1v1 with 6 games, 3 randomly paired and 3 ranked.

  • Missions and pairings will be announced on discord the Sunday before each week.

  • Players must maintain the same faction throughout the course of the league and the faction must be submitted to the league organizer before the start of the league. Players may switch their faction once between weeks 3 and 4 of the league.

  • After the first 3 weeks the top 8 players will be seeded into a single elimination bracket. Placing prizes (1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th) will be determined by this single elimination bracket. Players in the elimination bracket will be required to submit lists to the TO. Other players may revise their lists between weeks, but list tailoring is strongly discouraged.


Models & Painting:

  • Players must use plastic/resin/miniature models to participate in this league. Paper or cardboard cutouts will NOT be allowed.

  • Proxies, 3d printed models, or conversions ARE allowed. Proxies must have the same base size and be roughly the same height as the GW models. All models and proxies must have their weapons clearly represented. If you have any questions about the modeling/proxy policy, please DM the TO (Steven Saroka) on discord to ask for feedback.

  • There are no painting requirements to play in this league. In addition, painting scores for players will NOT impact Win/Loss of games.

  • There will be awards for best painted and best opponent.

  • If there are any questions about the event or missions, please contact Steven Saroka at steven dot saroka at gmail dot com.
