Army rankings for Warhammer Fantasy

3644 Views 1 Reply 2 Participants Last post by  Stormbrow II
I'm told that a number of Fantasy tournies use a system that ranks the various armies and applies a handicap - eg if you use a top-ranked army like Daemons you get fewer points for kicking Wood Elves than if you use something less powerful like say Dwarfs.

What I'd like to try and find is an example of this in practice to see whether it can be applied to our club's league games. We have about a dozen active players but none of us do tournaments at the moment.

Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

Regards

Have a look at the ETC's system. They had the armies tiered in 7th edition (I r Daemonz I Win!) but that has changed a bit since 8th came about.

Wood Elves are seen as one of the weaker armies while Skaven, Lizzies and Chaos have all got big boosts, in particular the first two with many saying that Lizzies are the hardest army in the game.

Have a look at the WHFB ETC section.
