Game Modes & Formats
Most games can be played a few different ways. These are the formats and table styles players are most likely to see at casual nights, prereleases, leagues, and organized events.
Spearhead
Spearhead is Age of Sigmar's compact, fast-playing entry mode built around curated forces and focused scenarios.
- Great for getting models on the table quickly with a lower army-size commitment.
- Games teach movement, combat ranges, objective play, command abilities, and battle tactics in a tighter space.
- Ideal for new players, escalation leagues, and weeknight games.
Matched Play
Matched Play is the balanced points-based mode for Age of Sigmar players who want structured missions and fair army construction.
- Players build armies to an agreed points level and use battleplans designed for objective play.
- The game rewards positioning, timing charges, screening, spell and prayer support, and scoring battle tactics.
- Tournament-minded players should keep up with current points, battle profiles, and season documents.
Path to Glory
Path to Glory is narrative campaign play where your warlord, followers, territory, and army story develop between battles.
- Perfect for players who enjoy the hobby story behind the army.
- Armies can grow gradually, which makes it friendly for new collectors.
- Battle outcomes create long-term consequences beyond the final score.
Open & Narrative Battles
Open play gives groups the freedom to create scenarios, monster hunts, siege battles, and cinematic showdowns that do not need tournament symmetry.
- Best when both players agree on tone, army size, and scenario goals up front.
- Great for painted-army showcases and unusual table setups.
- Lets players use favorite models even when they are not chasing the current competitive meta.
Start Small
A compact force helps you learn the rhythm of turns, pile-ins, objectives, and battle tactics before expanding.
Movement Wins Games
Fantasy battles reward careful charges, screening, objective control, and knowing when to commit key units.
