Dunk On 'Em Edition

>What is Trench Crusade?
An alternate weird history 28mm/32mm tabletop skirmish game still in a pre-release playtesting phase but with the full release slated for this year. Based on the art and lore of Mike Franchina, whose illustrations you may have seen floating around on /tg/ for a several years now, and designed by Tuomas Pirinen, one of the original creators of Mordheim. It's grimdark, it's visceral, it's awesome, and it's very Blanchitsu.

>What Trench Crusade is not
TC not an excuse for you to discuss IRL religion, history that didn't occur in the game, culture war shit, or discord bullshit on /tg/. Keep it on topic.

>What's the QRD on the background?
The Knights Templar turned heretic and opened the Gates of Hell when they took Jerusalem during the First Crusade. Over 800 years later the war is still ongoing as technology has developed to a pseudo diesel-punk WW1 standard and a third of Humanity has sided with the Infernal Princes.

Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, its faithful modern clones, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e and newer) should be discussed elsewhere.

Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creators from 1974 to 1983 — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots and a greater emphasis on player agency.

If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started. We also have two excellent beginner guides created by Anons with feedback from the thread that you can check for help:

hey, yall. I'm thinking about buying the MMII for 1e. I have the FF and original, so I'm looking at getting it for the combined tables.

anyone have any experience with it? is it worth buying?
>>
>>97185405
Everyone seems to agree it's good to excellent, but personally I'm never going to run it because of the ridonkulous walls of text which make it supremely annoying to use at the table and a few other pet peeves, like the fact that the vertical alignment of levels is completely wrong, something 99% of groups will never notice, but I do.

>>97186181
>I'm looking at getting it for the combined tables
You're in for a huge disappointment, then. The encounter tables were NOT updated for it.

>anyone have any experience with it? is it worth buying?
It's nowhere near the quality of the MM. I very seldom feel the need or inspiration to use monsters from the MM2.
>>
>>97186181
It's second-tier, along with the Fiend Folio. At the same time, there are some classics in there and in any case the official monster pool for first is so thin that I can't imagine not using it.
>>
>>97186199
I should have added: I would still get the MM2. I think every the AD&D manual with "Gary Gygax" on the cover is worth having.

His wife is jewish and she cucked him with a teferi cosplayer, he actually was pretty mad about it and even made a snarky remark about it in one of his video if he hasn't deleted it yet but since he goes to a psychiatrist and he's on antidepressants all she needs to do is say a word to have him diagnosed with paranoid delusions (it's actually a cliché that shrinks lock you up in an asylum because the husband was doubtful about his wife cheating on him) so I think pounding boypussy with his SSRI-limp dick is his way to get revenge.

Essentially older armies, once a faction goes over two armies (three for Cygnar) and the army is fully complete, will be rotated out to be made-to-order/print-only with minimal rule updates in same way as legacy prime factions get. We are not even close to reaching that state yet, though factions closest to that are Winter Korps, Storm Legion, and Dusk. Maybe Orgoth too, but first three were ones mentioned by SFG Matt as closest to completion.

We know that Skorne are not coming for 2026 (also some excuses how almost no one wants Skorne because their army was weak, had lack of coherent visual identity between units and beasts, etc and thus it's not going to be any time soon that we'll see Skorne), and both Rhul and Llael were brought as factions they want to bring in at a board meeting but I wouldn't be expecting them next year due to a desire to round out 2-armies-per-faction self-requirement. We are getting a solo from each though, we have concept art and leak of their rules but that's about it, been over year since.
>>
>>97178245
Umbrey, in this state, has been around as long as the setting existed before we even had a wargame.

Protectorate are not gone, just heavily reduced in scale. They lost much of their territory, but they still have their leadership and their warjack production capabilities untouched. The priest class is not gone either, and the civil war ended with expunging of Feora while the main governing body is still in charge. They are still military capable, their army fought alongside Cygnar, Khador, and Ios against Cryx and Orgoth not that long ago (lore wise.)
>>
>>97185458
>but they still have their leadership... untouched

Somewhat untouched. A lot of them turned out to be secret Satanists and got their souls eaten, and others like Severius died.

>All Attacks during the charge turn get +1str
The Charge Attack itself has +1str, that's all.
>First, it has to charge
Only if it has 1AP. It could Move then Attack (although this is rarely worth doing).
>don't get Charge bonus if already adjacent
Rather, you can't Charge. "Charge" is an "Action".
>Disengage
Again, an "Action", rather than just a term for something you do. I'd put it like

"To move away from an Engaging model, an Engaged model take the Disengage Action(, which stipulates...)"

A model can not Move away from a model you are Engaged with, so in order for the Reclaimer to reach a hex out of the Privet's Melee Range, it must preform the Disengage Action: A model preforming a Disengage ignores Engagement, and must move up to it's movement in hexes away from a model that was Engaging it. Think of the Actions like coupons that you buy using AP, that are then automatically redeemed, which results in a certain effect. "Disengage (Reclaimer 1) [3 in the direction of 6]" costs 2 AP (Reclaimer 1) which can only be accessed if he is the active model. That Disengage is then immediately automatically redeemed, resulting in Reclaimer 1 moving 3 in the direction of 6-on-a-scatter.
