This is the top three AoS lists for the Theatre of War II that took place in Canada on the 12th and 13th July. It saw 16 players vying to be crowned champion in a 5-game tournament.

Roland Rivera: Ironjawz has stumbled out of the gate this season as an army, but that plight mainly has to do with the infantry – underestimate their cavalry and monsters at your peril. Will Reeves has chosen to lean into this premise by using the Krazogg’s Grunta Stampede Army of Renown, which trades in the Ironjawz Waaagh and access to Wizards and Priests for some useful mobility tools that supplement the Gore-Gruntas’ and Maw-Gruntas’ high base Move characteristic. It also takes advantage of Gore-Gruntas having a good combination of high health for their points, as well as large bases to cover space on the board.
A crucial part of this strategy is the reinforced unit of Gore-Gruntas – the Grunta Stampede lets you move one unit up in the Deployment phase, and 6 Gore-Gruntas on large cavalry bases packing 30 health on a 3+ save are a strong candidate for this, as that can help you establish control over the middle of the board and threat to pin your opponent in their deployment zone. Beyond that, the 3-man units of Gore-Gruntas are utility units that can screen, stall, or gang up on weaker units, whereas the Maw-Gruntas bring the damage, as well as a potentially potent rampage against elite infantry and cavalry in Eatin’ On Da Hoof, which can trim their numbers before combat is even joined.
Overall, this list relies on its speed to be where it needs to exert influence on objectives and on its ability to set up favorable combats (such as by using the Maw-Grunta Gouger’s strikes-last rampage) to take out key targets. As evidenced by the record, this is one of the strongest strategies currently available to Ironjawz, and don’t be surprised if it becomes a recurring presence at podiums.
