40k Learners League
Welcome to the Spring Learners League 2025
To join the 40k Learners League you must defeat the dragon & pass a trial by fire!
What's that? Your asbestos underwear is in the wash & your suit of armour is being repaired.
Ok. I suppose we can do it another way.
To join the Learners League you must pass the following criteria:
- Be able to get to the store at least once a month for a game
- Have a 1000 point army built
- Be able to join the Learners League Whatsapp group to arrange games (email us if you need a link)
If you can do all those things then you have passed the test & you're in.
How it works
Each month you arrange games at the store & play. The idea here is "we're all in this together" so you are all helping each other to learn how to play.
Although it's not essential we encourage you to play on a Sunday evening. That way there's always a group of you down at the same time. And we have someone serving who knows the rules to help out if you get stuck.
After each game you'll record your score at the counter. It's recorded on our spreadsheet (see below) and your top score for each month will be used at the end of the league to calculate standings.
You will note that we are only recording your score. Not who you played against or whether you won or lost. This is deliberate. Your score matters. Smashing your opponent does not. This is to encourage everyone to help everyone else learn how to play. Get their heads around scoring.
And generally enjoy the experience.
40k works best when played on predetermined terrain to ensure balance. Because of this we will use the UKTC terrain maps & missions. Using round 1 for month 1 etc.
