What & When

A weekend built for wargamers

The Belgian Masters XXXL gives you a weekend of wargaming fun, with several events lined up across the weekend. There's something for everyone — singles, fun events, team tournaments… you name it, we've got it. And if we don't have it, we're open to suggestions.

The weekend is built around Warmachine, with a full slate of tournaments and side events. If an event caps out early, get on the waiting list — we can usually accommodate to some extent.

The main event

Several events run across the weekend, with the qualifiers feeding into Sunday's invitational — the climax where the crown of Belgian Master is decided.

Single-day tickets

Can't make the whole weekend? A Saturday or Sunday ticket (including lunch) gets you three games and all that day's events. You'll miss your shot at the Cup, though…

Food & drink

A fine selection of Belgian beers, complimentary tap water all weekend, and lunches included in your ticket — grilled sandwiches on Saturday, a friterie on Sunday.

Note: the schedule below is from the 2026 edition and is shown as a guide. Composition rules, scenarios and the final 2027 timetable will follow in the coming months.

The most coveted trophy in Warmachine

The Innuendo Cup

As any previous attendee of the Belgian Masters XXX or XXXL will confirm, this whole charade is really only about the elusive, arguably most coveted and definitely most unique trophy in all of Warmachine: the Innuendo Cup.

Granted by popular vote to the player who keeps the spirit of the Belgian Masters alive in the most exemplary fashion — giving rise to a whole new dimension of their "nudge nudge, wink wink" game. Bring your best double-entendres, dirty jokes and questionable puns: to the dirtiest mind go the spoils.

Disclaimer: this is not an excuse to behave as anything less than an excellent human being. Jokes and banter are fine; harassment and unsportsmanlike behaviour are not.
