What is Art of War - The Competitive 40k Network?

Every week we Interview a Top Performing 40k Player from a recent tournament!

We produce a two part show every single week.

In the first segment Warhammer 40k legend Nick Nanavati, introduces you to the player who has been performing notably well in the competitive Warhammer 40k tournament scene. You will learn about what makes them tick, their story, their practice, their play style, and how they win.

During the second segment Nick Nanavati puts his critical analysis to the test, and he works with the guest to unpack the specific list which they used to achieve glory. All of the strategies, tactics, and in game movements to actually win the games REVEALED!

The second part is for our patrons who we love dearly.
