European Team Championship 2026 – The 9th Age, Kraków
This weekend Kraków is hosting the European Team Championship for The 9th Age: Fantasy Battles – one of the biggest competitive events in the world of fantasy miniature wargaming.The 9th Age is a free, community-driven tabletop game of massed rank-and-file battles. Players command armies of elves, dwarves, orcs, undead, knights, and many other classic fantasy factions in tactical games that blend strategy, dice, and beautifully painted miniatures.
The first two days featured a single-player tournament, giving competitors a chance to warm up and test their lists. Today, Friday 7 August, the main event begins with 26 teams in total: national teams of 8 players each go head-to-head against another country’s team. Over the next three days every team will play two games per day, turning the venue into a sea of painted armies, intense concentration, and international camaraderie.
It’s an incredible atmosphere – the best players from across Europe (and beyond) gathered in one place, sharing the passion for the hobby. Honoured to be here capturing the action!
