Miniatures/war games are tabletop strategy games where players command painted miniatures representing units or characters on a scaled battlefield, using movement, positioning, measurements, and rules (often dice-driven) to resolve combat and objectives.

At DagdaCon, we will have a Warhammer and Bloodbowl tournament. You must purchase your tournament ticket in advance to secure your spot.

Warhammer 40k Tournament

Brought to you by Dearg Doom.

Warhammer is a science-fiction tabletop wargame set in a dystopian far-future. It depicts a galaxy-spanning conflict between powerful factions. The setting is grimdark in tone and the gameplay focuses on large-scale battles using armies of miniatures, detailed rules, and extensive lore.

Prepare for two days of intense tabletop warfare as players battle for glory in this competitive Warhammer 40,000 tournament. Whether you’re aiming for the top spot or just looing for a weekend of great games and hobby camaraderie, this event offers a fun, fair, and immersive 40K experience. All skill leves are welcome, bring your best list, your best attitude, and get ready for an epic weekend in the grim darkness of the far future.

What is Bloodbowl?

Bloodbowl is a tabletop miniature game set in a darkly comedic fantasy world where traditional high fantasy races compete in a brutal parody of American football. It blends turn-based sports mechanics with violent bloodshed.
