Every year, the Warhammer community gets to do something genuinely wholesome. Specifically, you get to nominate and vote for Warhammer Heroes.
These are the people who quietly keep the hobby alive. Meanwhile, the deadline is creeping up fast for 2026. So, if someone in your scene deserves props, now is the time.
Who You Can Nominate and Why It Matters
You can nominate basically anyone who’s made your hobby life better. For example, it can be your club organiser who always books tables and welcomes newcomers. Likewise, it can be a fundraiser who used Warhammer to raise money for charity. Or, honestly, it can be the friend who drove you a hundred miles to an event. The key is that they live the values of companionship, compassion, and inclusion.
Last Year’s Heroes Set the Bar
Last year’s winners show how broad this can be. For instance, Gelber Ricardo Cueva Núñez helped revitalise the Warhammer scene across Arequipa, Peru. Meanwhile, Luke Stone built the Dadhammer support group, which gives dads a real community through Warhammer. So, whether someone builds a whole city’s scene or just makes yours feel welcoming, they’re fair game.
What Heroes Actually Get
If your nominee becomes a Warhammer Hero for 2026, they get real recognition. First, they’re entered into the Roll of Honour. Then, their name goes onto the Wall of Honour in Bugman’s at Warhammer World. Additionally, they receive a special invite to an Awards Evening. Better still, they can bring a companion, and they get one night of accommodation included.
Summary
In short, Warhammer Heroes is your chance to reward the people who make the hobby feel like a community. Therefore, take two minutes, submit a nomination, and make it count. Voting closes at 11:59pm GMT on February 27, so do not leave it late. Winners will be contacted directly, and they’ll be announced later in the year. Finally, if you need details, check the FAQ and remember terms and conditions apply, as noted in the article.
