Looking forward to perennial tourists using this thread to furthering the one-sided blood feud they have going on with trench crusade, however many years later it is.

Good thing the entire game is built around the option of low cost 3d printed units

Everything's fucking expensive these days

>>98628829
Have you tried not buying it?

>>98628829
I got the STLs for free from a friend so I'm unbothered

>>98629163
There are no STLs available for the OP's pic. Every model that is getting released in plastic is *only* getting released in plastic because Tuomas wants people buying from LGSs so those LGSs are incentivized to carry TC stock and let people play TC games on their premises. Only the initial kickstarter resin models and a few straggler releases to patch holes in the kickstarter lineup have STLs.

>>98629189
That's fine, it's way more models and factions than I'll build and paint anyway

>>98628829

Trench Crusade are the image comics of /tg/, they started with the promise of fixing the inherent issues of the industry and then just gradually slid into doing all of said issues.

I think you have your fearless leader to thank for that. This includes taxes by the way.

>>98629617
Say his name, cupcake.

>>98629163
could you drop them to us in a catbox anon?

>>98628829
Mmm, liquid resin pockets

>>98628829
Who even plays/buys Trench Crusade? Go back to fucking reddit and bluesky, this is Space King territory

>>98629671
TC boxes like these are not resin.

I might get Carcass Front. It seems like a lot of value in one box.

>This is some GW tier pricing
Thank goodness Tuomas was saying that this project was conversion/kitbasher's paradise with themed builds and rules were to be free. So I don't have to buy them. Hopefully the "vote with your wallet" is working and enough fanboys had sense to see through the pricing.

It should have been competitively priced and a middle finger to GW pricing on what a small squad of miniatures should actually be priced at.
And only needing a small number of boxes compared to the loads of boxes a Warhammer army needs should have been the extra middle finger.
But the good kickstarter funding made him change his tunes.

Are the rules not free anymore?

>>98628839

Nah nigga, one side is completely vindicated. The other have to learn to swallow their pride

I'll leave you to draw the wrong conclusion on your own

"You don't have to buy our models"
>We're just going to try make it impossible to find any proxies for it by scaring creators with a retardedly strict license and if they don't comply, DMCA takedowns to nuke their shops.
If they use any of our totally not generic keywords such as
>sturmtruppe
>heretic
We will send our israeli friends Brandshield after them. That'll teach em to poach on the IP we explicitly marketed as friendly towards individual creators and promised they could sell models related to it
Btw we're going to claim the term
>compatible with Trench Crusade
Because we're just antisocial greedy assholes like that

Also like you say, we're going to charge even more than GW per model and justify it because its a skirmish game and our supporters can't into basic math because they're too dumb

>>98629685
>Space King
>calling anything reddit as a pejorative
oh the irony

>>98628829
With Finecast-era quality or worse. No refunds! Suckers. lol

>>98629588
You could just say they're GW's Pathfinder. Though unlike Pathfinder, there was never a period where Tranny Crusade was actually better than what it was parasitically feeding off of, so it's not exactly a perfect analogy.

>>98630885
the new models are hard plastic, no?

>>98630729
>>98629829
Not sure how anyone is surprised that little manlet kike pulled a bait and switch on his supporters.

>>98629685
>Go back to fucking reddit

fucking kek, good bait there kid
>>98628829
there are a ton of 3d alternatives you can buy for way less or you can kitbash your own from cheaper products.
funny how they're exactly like the company they're supposedly trying not to be like

>>98631043
>kitbash alternatives to play a terrible game with wretched people
nah bro I'm good

>>98631260
Nah, kitbash nice techno-gothic minis to paint and put on your shelf, assuming you're into the aesthetic.

>>98630900
They are.
Tons of chuds on here are anally annihilated because the people behind Trench Crusade didn't make their SS Crusade Kill-all-Troons Division canon or banned them from some discord.

Case in point: >>98629685

The game is fine, the models are fine if expensive, and you can use any third part model you like to build your warband if you don't wanna pay for the "official" models.

>>98631260
>Kitbash alternatives to play a good game with friends.

FTFY.

>>98629829
>and enough fanboys had sense to see through the pricing.
Nah, its fucked.
The last year of shitposting about TC one way or the other already accepted that official models only has always been the way to play.
Anyone making kitbashes and creative builds has long fled. Its just culturewar grifting on all sides now.

>>98629948
They are last I checked.
>>98630729
>>98631886
Yeah I feel the pain that both of you have mentioned. Sunk cost fallacy has probably gotten us all at something at some point.
It just takes longer to break free for some than others.

>>98631867
I've seen posts about how Trench Crusade defenders repeatedly always use the same talking points. I've seen the phrase "pre-programmed." I've seen posts predicting them always defaulting to the chud boogeyman or arch and calling detractors "poor" when Tuomas did say TC would be price wise more accessible than Warhammer.
Is it just one guy who has been a persistent defender that he created these stereotypes or is it really more?

>>98630715
>no, no, no you don't understand this is important business, we were right to sperg out continually for God knows how many years over a hobby we aren't part of
Still going, huh?

>>98630889
That's just Mantic.

>>98633662
>That's just Mantic.
I like their dwarfs. I'm not kidding. I've bought some to scan them when scanning tech becomes idiot proof and produces actually good results that will just work when converted to STLs for printing.
I also like mominiature's dwarfs too those are all STLs now.
I primarily respect Mantic and Mominiature for trying to make their models a cartoony different aesthetic than current Warhammer fantasy dwarfs if that makes sense.
Supposedly Mantic has an opposite problem of GW where their games are actually good but their models are subpar where only a few genuinely like them.

>>98631867
as someone who has a painted warband, played a campaign, and has no interest in playing anymore.
Nah dude
im sure there is an edgy larper who wants to play the ss
but im done with it for the rampant dmca and walk back.
dont know why im responding to you if you missed the space king joke this hard

>>98633911
Oh I've got nothing against Mantic myself. I just tend to remember Mantic for quite sometime really felt like everytime GW released something they released something close right after. Felt like such a strong pattern for a while.

>>98628829
The Necromunda gang boxes are slightly cheaper for twice as many models. It's actually far worse than GW pricing.

If you check under almost every TC youtube videos there is one, sometimes two people replying to almost every negative comment running defence. No joke.

Been wondering if he is a puppet account, paid shill or just retarded

Unsurprisingly if you check his reddit you see he unironically has a 600 day reddit streak and ofcourse is following some lgbtq subs

Pattern recognition is a damned thing

>>98634917
The pricing is fine in Europe.

>>98635279
>EUR30 for 5 dudes
>fine
It's still worse than GW.

>>98635279
M8 are you on something? That's an abysmal pricing for Europe. 6€ per single plastic mini is actually worse pricing than gw and a complete ripoff.

Shame that this project will die before the Church of the Metamorphosis get expanded on. Maybe that's for the better

>>98634917
The Necromunda models are also
1.) Much higher and more reliable in quality
2.) Far less generic/far more sovlful

TC really is just a grift for idiots, it's kinda amazing.
