What do you guys buy for your Nuns?
Flails? Swords? Mauls?
I tend to go with flails, since their basic +1 to hit isn't that much and I like to give them shields in the other hand. That and Warcrosses for the Assault keyword. Kinda tempted to give one a misericordia and use her mobility to fish for easy downed targets to finish.
Sucks you can't give them molotovs or any non-shit guns
>>98636473
>things turn around for the better after all that has happened?
To be quite honest I just have fun playing the game with my friends using the minis we got from KS files and some conversions and don't care about any of the shitty drama in the slightest.
Fuck the OP for using another fucking AI slop picture though

>>98637061
>don't care about any of the shitty drama
Walking back on founding selling points of TC after giving so many hopes that this will be the gold standard of what indie wargames should be is "shitty drama????"
Anon feigning ignorance is a terrible response.

>>98636473
>here and hoping that things turn around for the better after all that has happened?
What happened? Backed the kickstarter, and haven't seen a bad turn.

>>98637061
Miseracordia +cross if i can afford it. But I don't frequently play pilgrims. Giving them armor is also stronger than it sounds because making them die on a 10 and getting more blessings is massive. Or they require your opponent to focus them, which means your anchorite and elites aren't getting focused by special weapons or elites

>>98637061
I tend to run mine with warcrosses and either flail+sword or anti-tank hammers.
Flail+sword is the chaffblender choice. Chuck 1-2 of those at enemy troops and nine times out of ten all that remains after the charge are two slightly more bloody nuns in a pool of gore.
The AT-hammer ones i use as essentially guided missiles. I don't expect them to survive but they will put the smackdown on whatever big beastie i aim them at.

I've played a couple games and this is the worst balanced skirmish game in a long time. And that's counting Kill Team 3. I don't understand why would anyone see the appeal.

>>98638521
post your list and what you were playing against.

>>98638767
Don't remember all the details but the worst offender was me (Black Grial) vs Heretic Navy. Dude couldn't remove a single model, it was a steamroll. He was learning to play and he quit shortly after that.

>>98636451
>Indie
Hah. Haha.

Is it worth trying to make my Antioch elites good at shooting and melee? Or should I just pick one. I'm new and not sure how much I should be spending on each guy at the start.

>>98639015
>shooting or melee
Antioch melee is not good. Their strength is cheap fireteam bloodbaths and a really really good ranged armory. People love using steal skills on their armory for a reason.

You might be able to justify it as Abyssinia, but you will be paying ducats to just be OK in melee rather than great.

>how much should I spend
NA in general loves building wide. If you want to think heartless, you are more worried about the gear they lose rather than the models themselves. You want more guns on the table to blow away your opponent rather than building Elite/Tall. It is not uncommon for your entire warband to never buy armor unless it's part of their initial cost

>>98638834
How mamy flamethrowers was he running? What was his list? That shouldnt be that bad of a matchup.

>>98639196
>Abyssinia
Guilty as charged. I was going to buy armor for my Lt and Holy Warriors, maybe I should just buy more bodies instead?

I don't know if it's been specified explicitly, but it was heavily implied at least. Tuomas at NoVa mentioned that they wanted to eventually do a campaign box every couple years or so. Meaning they'll have these expensive pretty molds collecting dust otherwise, so probably, but we'll see

Hello, I would like to play this game. How is the community? I heard it is pro lgbt+... I am a shy trans girl, and I don't want risk to meet unsufferable people.

I just got my hands on models for the heretic legion, and am working on a warband using the basic faction rules (no subfaction). I'm struggling though on what to cut from the Cool Guys, since if I take all of them I am left with two troopers and not enough bodies. I feel like I want more elites early in the campaign to level up sooner but I know I gotta drop something. I'm thinking of dropping the commando but am not sure. For those that have played them, which is the ideal to leave off the roster initially?

>>98657655
>I feel like I want more elites early in the campaign to level up sooner
This is usually a good mindset
> I'm struggling though on what to cut from the Cool Guys, since if I take all of them I am left with two troopers and not enough bodies.
HL special units are all really damn good, so I would say in case of them having somewhat small numbers early on is acceptable, especially if you're the basic legion, and not ghosts or naval party. But then again, despite what many folks online claim, zerg rush armies almost always fared poorly against smaller warbands of well equipped elites and special units in around 35 games my group has played so far.
>I'm thinking of dropping the commando but am not sure.
Commando is a beast with Tartarus Claws and some decent melee advancements, not so much without them, but still very useful. Don't underestimate the value of infiltrators.

It also kinda depends on what the other players are taking - if you expect to face plenty of heavy armour right from the beginning of the campaign, make sure to take the Witch and the Wolf so you can take them down somewhat reliably. If you expect plenty of firepower or enemies with numerical advantages, Witch and Death Commando are a must have. If you expect melee focused warbands, make sure to take the Chorister.

This anon has good advice, I mostly play raiders and I typically start my campaign at 7 doods worth a couple troops with smgs and an anointed with heavy flamer. Better doods aren't strictly better than more, but unlike most games heretics in TC are absolutely the elites/specialists faction

What's a good warband composition if I don't want to use monsters like the witch?

>>98662618
Just play New Antioch
Unless you don't want sniper priests, clerics and mechanised infantry either in which case I guess go play a historical wargame instead

>>98662891
NTA, but what if I want a Heretic Legion warband, but for thematic reasons, want to avoid any Pit-born or monstrous infantry?

>>98663690
>But what if I want to play a faction with tonne of cool and powerful special units, but want to only use boring regular dudes instead?
Then I guess you're welcome to just take as many Annointed as you can and fill the rest of the warband with basic bitch Troopers/Legionnaires, but it's not going to be particularly good or interesting, what else can I tell you?
As long you equip the dudes decently and manage to promote a a few of them into elites early on so that they can get some actually good gear it probably won't be like, unplayable tier awful, but certainly not very good either.

The whole point of Antioch as a "regular human" faction is that they have their fireteam rule that allows said regular dudes to actually kill shit reliably

I want to run a TC RPG where players are communicants tearing through hordes of demons and heretics, Doom vibes basically. What system do you recommend?

Naval Raiders is your answer.
They can't get a war wolf, they can only get a max of 2 Heavy Annointed, which are still mostly human.

The chorister was a human... They just cut off their own head in ritual suicide. But you could flavor them still having a head.

The only unit that is a real denizen of hell is the artillery witch... And she's awesome.

Alternatively, make your own, lightweight game with video game stats (health, armor, weapon stats, and temporary buffs). Drop the classes and make it about gear and upgrades, drop the dice as the core outcome media and make it about action economy and how players choose to lose health and armor.

I would try to squeeze in at least basic armour for your Corpse Guards, having 2 or especially 3 armour points instead of o or 1 really does increase survivability by quite a lot
Also I would try to at least give some basic ranged weapon to the Knight - Grail is melee focused, but being able to soften the enemy with firearms before you get to engage them helps a lot
Amalgam, as it currently is in the rulebook, honestly isn't that good and I probably wouldn't take it for the very beginning of the campaign. However, the devs plan to rebalance him quite a lot and the new version is already available as a test rule preview, if your group is okay with using those (in my opinion all of them are pretty good) I would definitely use that version of Amalgam instead. It would also free up a bit of your budget

I legitimately can't tell if it is weird archtrolls pretending to be ignorant/dumb TC fans or genuine TC fans. There is nothing wrong with acknowledging company fuckups. Not worshipping a company as infallible is a thing that separates /awg/tists for Warhammertards
>>98703150
For me the change of paradigm (the prussian prices got me) was like the Animal Farm first sign when the milk was gone foreshadowing negative change. I sometimes scour here and other forums looking for posts that acknowledge the Factory Fortress Fuckups. I was a pretty ardent defender even in the face of facts, but I came around.

>>98703926
I'm not defending the company, my only TC interaction so far is playing the game, which was fun, and getting my pre order minis, which I got.
I also bought more minis from etsy, so I don't care about the stosstruppen much, and as far as I know you're free to proxy them as well with whatever you want so...
Now of course in the future if the company starts going after third parties and making me pay 10 bucks a bottle of paint like GW I will stop buying anything from them, just like I'm already doing from GW, but we're still pretty fucking far.

>>98704094
Check the "Broken Promises, or "How to Speedrun Being Little Jimmy Studio" section of the archive link.
Allegedly uses Brandshield that supposedly GW uses to smack around Etsy and STLs.
The strosstruppen prices are annoying because Tuomas was saying things about wanting the game to be financially accessible. Which means even the plastics have to reflect this and not be cheap by "Gw standards" excuses. Not everybody has the space for a printer and Etsy sellers are hit and miss.
Maybe this ignorance you're showing (assuming you aren't a troll larper) is how Warhammer fans enjoy Warhammer. By just shutting their ears and and blindfolding the fuckups a company is making...

>>98704175
I'm not gonna defend the pricing and you're right to complain, just like I'm not defending GW's shitty pricings. I'm a reseller/recaster adept and no longer buy anything directly from GW. I don't see how I could not do the same thing with TC

>Now of course in the future if the company starts going after third parties and making me pay 10 bucks a bottle of paint like GW I will stop buying anything from them
This has always been the plan. Tuomas Pirinen works as Chief Creative Officer at multinational game marketing leverage firm Reforged Studios.

>>98703926
No one is forced to agree on severity of those mishaps, or even conside them as such.
The list begins with Discord drama, which is very gay. Faggot got booted, big deal. We've had a plague of those here too, sadly they didn't get the boot.
Stls and pricing? They have told on interviews that they need something for the stores, which are the community hub for wargames. The plastic sculpting and manufacture cost a lot, especially when they don't want to do it in China. The kickstarter stls are still purchasable, promise was made before they knew they would create a company. You still have third party models you're allowed to use. They might become like GW, but any business in the niche will become similar. You thought they would overcome the challenges of the market by becoming something different. The brandshield? They need to strike those down, because otherwise someone else sells their products, and they can't make money. AI apparently was trigger happy, but not really TC dev teams fault, they didn't code it.

>>98637061
The correct way, which is flail+automatic pistol with Incindiary ammo. With two flaming shots and two melee attacks, you get the ability to apply six blood markers in a single activation, which is pretty damn good

Thinking of getting into TC with Court of the Seven-Headed Serpent. Should I get yoke fiends or hellknights to start?

>>98703077
I don't even play trench crusade but I'm over halfway through and it's all just discord drama, not even "they didn't deliver kickstarter stuff" just someone making a comment about Aztecs or women or the map being bad. Goddamn you guys sound like faggots.

>>98706090
Court is getting a major overhaul in October, so I can't really say. The faction is generally ELITE and tall-focused, so you might want to lean more towards Hell Knight models at the moment. Keep in mind the game is also model agnostic so you can just b urself as long as you and your opponent are cool with your models

what happened to the jews in trench crusade?
Are there any dramatis personae rabbis?

>>98706918
There are a couple of lore tidbits and campaign exploration events that mention golems and kabbala. The hebrew knights are also a planned faithful faction

>>98706918
Would be really ballsy to have them get front page presentation instead of crumbs that have to be searched for in lore.

>>98706090
Definitely Hellknights, they're a great unit and they're elite, so you want them to start gaining xp as soon as possible.
Yoke Fiends are pretty mediocre fodder, I only really start buying them once I run out of other cool shit I could invest in

>>98706090
Grab yourself a praetor/sorcerer and 2 Hellknights (3 if you aren't going for a Hunter of the Left Handed Path) and kit them out before setting points aside for yoke fiends and wretches. The fiends are mostly just blood generators feeding off of whipping your wretches.

Is the lore good yet or is it still nonsensical not thought out bullshit hard carried by concept art?

>>98711161
Its good, but its also absurd and rides heavily on vibes.

Got back to uni on the weekend and hit up the gaming stores today, one of them has an entire section dedicated to TC in the back with multiple hooks for the diffferent resin models and they seem to be selling well

>>98711992
Nobody believes you lol
Pics or it didn't happen

This whole project annoys me, I love the aesthetics and a lot of the minis but so much of the presentation is half-assed in a way that offends me. Why is all the lore contained in articles on the website (no short stories, no codex-style collections of faction lore), why is there no comprehensive list of official minis. And why are you being Jews less than 2 years into release, any tech bro can tell you you need to wait a while longer before you start raising prices and being a shithead. It feels like the entire project was just about turning cool concept art into cool minis (well, I don't know about the rules, they might be good) and noone really gave a shit about the less sexy business and lore stuff.

>>98711992
I’ve noticed a lot more people playing TC at my LGS as well. It’s a fun game, and it being model agnostic is a selling point for a lot of people.

Gonna start a campaign soon, planning to use Papal State Intervention force. I built a sketch of my army:

Warband [493 Ducats, 10 Glory Points] (New Antioch)

• Warband Variant: Papal States Intervention Force
NAME ROLE GLORY POINTS OPTIONS
Lieutenant Elite 1
Sniper Priest Elite
Sniper Priest Elite
Trench Cleric Elite 2
Yeoman Troop
Communicant Anti-Tank Hunter Mercenary 5
Mendelist Ammo Monk Mercenary 2
Trench Dog Mercenary

Any thoughts or tips from veterans?

>>98714059
Hard to say anything since we don't know how you equipped your dudes - it's very important, especially for NA
The overall lineup looks sensible, but do remember that you can also turn mercenaries into elites now (a very good idea in case of most of them), so consider taking one sniper priest less to free up the spot. Also, the dogs honestly aren't very good, but since Papal States don't have to worry about GP that much, maybe you could make them actually work with that variant.

As for overall tips, you're playing a low numbers, high quality faction, so you're almost certainly going to be outgunned and un-activated, even more so if you'll make frequent use of fireteams. Make sure that each of your activations count. Use concentrated fire to pick out key enemy targets. Use terrain and cover wisely to minimise loses. Consider investing in an altar to be safe from morale checks. Make good use of your Lieutenant's ability to waste the activations of crucial enemy models. Try hunting down merchants in exploration phase to spend your extra glory points on those neat campaign items.

I think Anon meant that there is a bunch of abilities with rules like "all models on bases smaller than 40mm get pushed back by the explosion" or "this weapon is more effective against targets with base size larger than X". Stuff like that. So you will need to keep the intended size in mind.. For the measurements themselves, I don't think it really matters that much, having a bigger base is honestly probably more detrimental than beneficial anyway

Okay, coming back late but this was the list I was looking at running. I definitely want to get a commando and that would likely be my first recruit after the first game, so far I only know one of the other guys is gonna be running Court but I don't know what his warband will have. I'll post the other variant of the list as well which was more troopers; if anyone can tell me if it seems like I'm way off base let me know.

Heretic Legion - The Brimstone Brigade (1) - [700 Ducats]

Maybe. But honestly, I don't care if it never gets popular. TC's primary draw is that it's grimdark religious horror made by certain people for certain people, and not toned down so wider audiences can stand it. While more games would be cool, rebranding to appeal to the masses runs contrary to what makes TC great.

Played my second game yesterday, three players. It was quite fun. Stosstruppen player had a bit of hard time but he managed to make a mine explode which blew three models away, pretty fun

I meant their PR and business stuff, not the tone or the content of the game. I don't think the grimdark or the body horror is nearly as normie-repulsive as you think, if anything the normies think its cool and autists like me want more WW1 military shit.
>for certain people
Yeah, chuds, who they then told to leave. It's frustrating because I know the game should have more momentum and positive energy behind it but there's just a missing chunk of people that should be pushing the series and were scared off too early. Feels like going into battle and realising an entire flank of your army has fucked off. /rant.

>>98734162
You mistake things.

There's no need to 'push the series' with artificial spikes of money. That's not stable business, it's like dousing a houseplant in water to make it grow faster, when it's already ticking along. They didn't beg people to stop donating at the end of the kickstarter for altruism's sake.

And it's not meant to be some chud-coded, counter-culture 40k expy either.
It's meant to be it's own thing, truly regardless of culture war side.
I know a lot of people got upset that they weren't allowed to talk politics on the discord, but they all agreed to the 'no politics' rule to get in. At that stage, it's just filtering for lack of self control.

I mean, they didn't even get told "you cannot play Trench Crusade", they just got kicked from a discord server. Not like they were the only ones.

This.
The actual issue that you could claim would be on the production end, which a lot of fans are prepared to offer grace because the guys behind this are the artsy sort, not logistic workers.
The moment someone brings up any culture war or online nonsense is the moment you know they are just talking shit.
Even talking about actual issues is a problem, because the well has been so poisoned by shitposters and liars that you have to scrutinize any statement made.

>>98734314
Except the "No politics" rule was always just a lie to be able to ban chuds over nothing meanwhile allowing their own side to spread their message under the guise of "but lgbtq+ is not political"

They're just fucking hypocrits and liars, nobody takes TC serious.

>>98739030
>but lgbtq+ is not political
I do think agreeing that human rights should apply to all humans, no matter what race, creed or sexuality they are isn't political. It's called "being a decent human being".

I actually think believing in a rights framework and in a fairly hardline version of egalitarianism is quite a distinct, parochial, and above all recent political opinion, that has prevailed almost exclusively in the West almost exclusively in the past 60 years. Virtually nobody outside of the west or the past 60 years would think any part of that makes the slightest sense.
It's healthy to remind yourself that apparent "obvious" views that "decent people" "all" have are typically nothing of the sort.
Self-evidently the lives of my non-family are nearly worthless to me, let alone the lives of foreigners, cripples, mental defectives, etc.; that's a perfectly normal calibration that would be totally intelligible to (for instance) a Confucian. As far as I'm concerned insinuating that my life is equivalent to that of a drooling spastic is an outrageous and immoral allegation. You should apologize, really.

>>98739330
Thats because egalitarianism is a peak civilization very few have societes have reached.
However all good things must come to an end, as its weakness is being exploited by bad actors the west will gradually degrade back towards the more sustainable level other less civilized countries run at.
Its pretty much a golden goose story

British Empire at its peak: Strictly class & racially divided society
Edo Japan: Strict class society
Golden age China (Song/Tang): Strict class & racially segregated society
Peak era South Africa: Apartheid
Peak era USA: 1950's Segregation

Guy works for these dipshits, of course Trench Crusade was spammed here. Its always been a scam. You're just mad you got caught. Remember to cycle your grifts, no amount of your bullshit will actually achieve
>By doing this we help grow their success in a sustainable way that avoids the “boom & bust” cycles developers often face on their own.
That's part of the sales pitch to companies. Stop drinking you own koolaid.

Carcass front arrived, time to start a new campaign, just gotta get a few terrain pieces done
Also fuck me this threads desperately needs jannies, the tourism has gotten insufferable

>>98745710
Based, I've been thinking about getting into heretics, Dirge had been pure cbt
How fun are they?

>>98749850

Just do what we used to do before /tg/ had jannies: ridicule the trolls into either A going away, or B: behave
Sometimes that even resulted in memorable memes and/or new /tg/ characters

>Tuomas: "TC has no traditional marketing guys, its all grassroots from the community"

Meanwhile

They're just snakes at every level

How would one go about making standard heretic troopers look more appropriate as a Mammon-aligned warband outside of just painting their armor gold? Coins dangling from their webbing/belts? Pouches stuffed with loot?

>>98750129
Fat stacks of cash, violet silky fabric, jewish symbols, enlarged noses

>>98750008
The trolls are too mentally retarded to realize they're being made fun of these days

>>98750129
Fancy helmets
Gemstones
Elaborate patterns or animal hides painted on capes and/or uniforms
Scriptures with contracts
Coins
Pretty much any fancy looking ornaments and bits you can find
>>98749850
Friends from my group caved in and bought the box at a recent convention. We're still only 40% done with our current campaign though, so it will have to wait a bit. Haven't even unboxed it yet.

>>98750070
Yep. Rugpull

So happy the SK kickstarter bodied this scam

>98750638
keep astroturfing your garbage boardgame clowns, no one cares, it's not even a wargame, let alone a skirmish one

>>98750627
Not really a wargaming convention, just a generic fantasy/popculture/anime/vidya/RPG/wargaming/boardgames/everything-else-nerdy kind of con. A relatively big one though.

You knuckle dragging sped, TC is itself a Discord cult.

>>98750129
Make them look extravagant. Furs, gems, jewellery and bags full of loot.

Lately I've been thinking how loyal to ww1 aesthetic should minis be, to retain the trench warfare vibe.
Especially when muses gave inspiration to create heretic legion warband with knight aesthetic. Since serpent head of wrath is referred as she, I thought of knights who have Apollyon as their lady. Since cult of the virgin, and adoration of Mary was popular among the knightly class.

>>98750129
Give them kippahs, payots, hunched backs, and six-pointed stars on their clothes. They can be lead by Tuomas Pirinen.

That's rough. Are you from the Balkans or outside of NA/Europe? Because I'm from Slavlands and even here this sort of thing has been increasingly normalised for a long time now, with first cons dating all the way back to even the late USSR days and first somewhat big ones in late 00s

Can jannies ban the faggot shitting up every TC thread already

>>98756324
Chewsday, innit? You got a loicense for that retardation?

>>98757942
Every TC thread is advertising so they'd have to get on that too.

>>98748454
Nta, but I really had high hopes for TC. Glad I didn't back the kickstarter now.

It wasn't forced at the beginning but they sure did fuck the dog.

>>98750129
Wearing rags, barefoot with barely-working rifles. They don't GET the loot themselves that all goes in the vault.

>>98759979

FTFY

>>98757942
Jannies now are all quiet rightoids.

Threads about trannies and how their mentality is weird, with no traditional games mentioned? Nothing.
Deliberately shit up on-topic threads with shit everyone knows is made up, and then proudly affirm that they're doing this with bad intentions to 'win'? Nothing.
Break down why chuds and rightoids aren't actually right wing/conservative, but a counterculture that depends on being antagonistic and contrarian for their entire sense of personal identity and self-worth, because someone asked "why are these people acting like this"?

Insta-ban for being 'off topic'.


C'mon janny. You know you can't help but prove me right.

>>98759950
By that logic every 40slop thread should be banned, I'm all for it desu

>>98761291
I feel like the jannies are paid off by the geedubs jews too

>>98761291
>tranny mad he can't police thoughts like reddit
You won, you get wizard of the coast, you get hasbro, you get GW too(every other Imperium character is a girlboss), what the fuck more do you want? Everything has turned lame and gay, go play your lame and gay games with purple and cyan and tranny looking "women". It's what you wanted right?

>>98761602
Equality feels like opression to those who are used to privilege

>>98711161
Entirely vibe-based, like a more shallow 40K without the benefit of something like the Ciaphas Cain novels or The Infinite and The Divine to flesh out the world and some of the mysteries in it. I don't hate it, but the art hard carries. But I've given up hope for mysteries like Metachrists being cloned ever being explained.

I'm very tired of the Temple of Metamorphosis still being MIA, and it being a mystery if Zygotic Beasts will ever even have models at all

>>98713406
I hear you on that. In execution, the game feels like an advertisement for itself if that makes any sense. There is a promising foundation, and they do shit all with it other than the bare minimum. Where's the AMBITION for this damn project, outside of the art?

>>98761610
As a cash-grab i'd say it was quite ambitious

The whole machine armor guy is from Etsy, there's two like this one with the heavy shotgun (what a beast that is, short range it just works) and another with a heavy flamer. Haven't used the heavy flamer yet because so far I played only 700 ducats one-offs with my friend, it's just two of us and it feels weird trying to make a campaign work in 2.

>>98761560
No you're dodging again. The guy who made Trench Crusade literally works for a game marketing company and worked in marketing at fucking EA and ubisoft before that. Its been advertising from day one. At best you got played.

That's because it is made to be so. Tuomas Pirinen works for these guys. Whole thing is preformulated slop in 'indie game' flavour.

>>98761610
>But I've given up hope for mysteries like Metachrists being cloned ever being explained.
Personally i'd see metachrist stuff remain obfuscated and mysterious. For example WH40K became a lot less interesting when GW/Black library fleshed out the Emperor, the primarchs and the entire horus heresy in minute detail.

>>98761902
Have you actually played it? I swear to God, sometimes I argue on this website for hours just to discover they actually enjoy sfiligoi shit like Dragon Rampant, then I realize I've been arguing with retards for hours.

TC rules is perfectly fine for a skirmish game, it's not bloated to shit with stratagems, weird rule exceptions, extra-resources, in short it doesn't try to be MTG with miniatures like many modern games. The balance is iffy, but the game being really swingy with dices kinda offsets it.

>>98761941
Read them, too much cruft and fiddly shit for the results. Made a few warbands with the maker, not for me.
Looks like people complain about flamethrower spam and various things but that's normal for Toumas, he's not a good rules guy, he at best had goth vibes.
Game's fucked, been fucked from the get go. Watching it shift from kitbash to offical /tg/ janitorial sponsorship and Lore and official models has been one of the great examples of marketing enshitification in small spaces.
