Tier reads how often lists take it, with reviewers' lists and our maths. Damage and Toughness are our dice alone; Maths is our points-value model. How we score ›

Our Tier, and the sword and shield letters, compare units point for point within their army, from tournament results and the maths. They say nothing about whether a model is fun to field or worth painting: plenty of units outside the top letters win games in the right list.
