The Old World: State of the Game – 10th November 2024

Introduction

If you follow the site, you’ll know that we do in-depth stats for Games Workshop’s Age of Sigmar system. We’ve also been tracking Old World stats at a very high level since it’s release. With the popularity of Old World as a tournament system, we’ve seen the number of events and games steadily increasing over the past year, so much so that we’ve reached a point where we can provide a little more detail into the figures that make up these win rates.

Firstly a disclaimer, these stats are based on events hosted on the website Best Coast Pairings, Stats & Ladders, and Ecksen. We do have plans to add further sites into the database in the future, and we are aware that T3 etc also have their own stats. Our advice is always to look at every source of statistics, this will give you a much more informed idea on the state of the game. Mistakes can be made, if they occur I will update the article as soon as I can with a note as to what has been changed.

The majority of our stats are taken from 2,000 point GT events where legacy factions have been allowed to take part. This is due to these being the most popular events in our database. If you wish to view the data, you can download the file at the end of this article.

Followers of Woehammer will be aware of our Elo ratings in Age of Sigmar, I have tracked these for Old World and do have the data, which is included in the matches tab on the file at the end of the document.

GT Win Rates

GT Win (2,000pts) Rates since 18th July FAQ

We’ve split out the various muster lists for factions that have already received their Arcane Journal. So for Dwarfen Mountain Holds, Kingdom of Bretonnia, Orc and Goblin Tribes, Tomb Kings of Khemri and Warriors of Chaos, you may see up to three different entries for each faction. Each of these are for the muster lists available to them, the Grand Army in the core Forces of Fantasy or Ravening Hordes books, then their two optional muster lists available inside the Arcane Journal. For simplicity we’ve cut any muster list that has less than 20 games on record at GTs.

The figure in brackets denotes the number of games where the Faction and Muster list have been used in a 2,000 point GT. Please note that mirror matches (i.e. Chaos Warriors v Chaos Warriors) have been excluded for the purpose of these statistics.

Faction/Muster List Popularity

The above shows the number of players that represented each combination of Faction and Muster Lists at 2,000 point GT events around the world.

Results Breakdown by % of Wins

The above shows the breakdown of the number of wins players finish with at 2,000 point GT with the given faction and muster list combination. The number in brackets denotes the number of games the faction and muster list combination was used at GT’s.

Once again, faction and muster list combinations with less than 20 games have been removed from this chart.

Faction % Race

Finally just for a bit of fun, the below bar chart race shows the faction % for the last 60 days at the date given at the bottom. This effectively shows the change over time.
