How many early Trench Crusade supporters are still here and hoping that things turn around for the better after all that has happened?I'm still here and hoping. >t. backed the kickstarter and got my book very late
>>98636451How about we add some slop to ditch jihad to warn up the view of the game, amirite?
>>98636451this is my favorite artwork by mike franchina
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 dramaWalking 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.
>>98637061Miseracordia +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
>>98637061I 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.
>>98638521post your list and what you were playing against.
>>98638767Don'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>IndieHah. 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 meleeAntioch 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 spendNA 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
>>98638834How mamy flamethrowers was he running? What was his list? That shouldnt be that bad of a matchup.
>>98639196>AbyssiniaGuilty as charged. I was going to buy armor for my Lt and Holy Warriors, maybe I should just buy more bodies instead?
Trench Companion anon... please updates the Naval Raiders and Sacred affliction units to have Profile Pics I can't live like this setting up my warbands...
>>98639447Activations are very important in most scenarios, so I would encourage you to do so when you can. As Abby you can get away with spamming basic Yeomen because they're capable of hitting things due to SRM.
>>98639814Thanks for the help! I can probably get 2-3 more Yeomen in there.
why does this game suck muslim cock so hard
>>98639905Isn't the designer Polish?

>Wanna play a different table top game that isn't 40k>No other store in my cityI so badly wanna try anything that isn't just 40k. This, Infinity, Crisis Protocol, etc. But I know if I decide to get the bright idea to open up a dedicated game store in my city, I won't be able to play.
My carcass front just arrived, but i have to leave for the rest of the day so i wont get to open it till tomorrow,
>>98640584TC is banned in alot of stores
>>98642103Really?Since when?>>98640103You'll be waiting a while.>>98640584You don't know anyone in your town?
I tried to make honeycomb candy but I messed up and now it looks like gore art from trench crusade because I'm pulling it when it's still a bit soft and the sugar creates strands of gore and the inside looks like gore from the poorly formed air pockets and the smell is off because I burnt some sugar and I think the baking soda is too much or something.
>>98642505But did it inspire you to paint your minis?
>>98642103You are talking out your ass.
Asking again cause why not. Will the Naval Raiders be released separately from the starter set in the future? Or is that info not yet known?
>>98645165I 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
>>98645860NoVa laat year*** (he wasn't there this year)
>>98639297>how many flamethrowers was he running?>only way for a faction to compete is to bring a shitload of a single type of weaponOh Toumas, you never fucking learn.
>>98644658Why? Isn't that exactly what overlord Tuomas said would happen?>Without plastics to sell, no one is going to want TC in their store.Now they got the plastics, but because the IP is completely toxic, gay and cringe nobody wants to buy it, which is effetively the same thing.>You gotta incentivise the store owners man!
>>98646552And yet you're still talking about it. Curious.
>>98646552>completely toxic, gay and cringe
>98646776>98646782It's telling that the only people still "defending" this game are bait trolls like you retards, because you know being a contrarian retard with posts that may as well be from a spambot to farm (you)s is the only purpose left for this general.Make an actual argument.
>>98646802What stores did it get banned from?
>>98646552trvth nvke
>>98646552Post one (1) example of TC being banned in a store. I’ll wait.
Post war-bands
>>98648907Don't have a recent warband pic, but here's one from NoVa, it was fun
Companion guy here, Carcass Front post-release bugfixing is basically done so next up is dealing with homebrew - theres a few issues but the main things I'm dealing with are.> the GUI for editing homebrew, ideally you should be able to do everything without fucking with JSON> adding a draft/non-public state for homebrew> helping with object IDs to stop them clashing
>>98648907Next time i'm down at the gaming club i'm gonna take some better photos of my heretics now that i have a better camera.
>>98646802For me there is no defending the choices of FFI. Only excuses.I respect those who can still enjoy Trench Crusade despite all that has happened. For me the broken promises are like a loud fly always buzzing in the room that cannot be killed if that makes sense.Bless CompanionAnon for continuing his website work. I do fear how some elements of the Trench Crusade remaining following would react if he was an active 4chan user knowing this site's reputation. Hopefully he'll be fine.
>>98646208Nta but to be fair, when you know you are playing something like that (which you always do) you do account for it.>shitloadI dno bout that man but some seems entierly fair and reasonable to expect. The legions also have access to incendiary grenades if you want to go down that route.I will agree that the black grail is kinda unfun to play against though.
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.
>>98648907I only have unpainted garbage. And posted them all in another TC thread. Whoopz.
>>98652493The community is a roughly 50/50 split of muscular racist transphobic chuds with 10 inch dicks and cute trans girls named Lilith with 10 inch dicks.
>>98652493Sorry, TC keeps halal, so you'll have to marry one of the other players or be accompanied by your father to be at the store during TC hours.
>>98652493very much depends on your FLGS/gaming club i'd say.
>>98652493You're the insufferable person most likely
>>98655297That's alright paint then up we would love to have them here, it's better than the retard gorilla niggers who reply each other to troll in an effort to farm (you)'s, and posting then unpainted here is alright as well, though less cool visually than with paint.
did the thing release or are you guys waiting on kickstarter stuff
>>98657029Kickstarter stuff released something like 1,5 year ago I think. They produced a few minor releases and recently a big expansion since then (technically the latter was part of KS stretch goals)
>>98650317Nice extra touch on the priest. Don't really like how that model usually looks but that skull mask really works
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 soonerThis 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.
>>98657181Thanks, Here's a better look at him alongside the ghostly chorister.
>>98657810>>98657655This 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?
>>98662618Just play New AntiochUnless you don't want sniper priests, clerics and mechanised infantry either in which case I guess go play a historical wargame instead
>>98662891NTA, 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?
>>98663979I just want to see if Tuomas is gonna make a larger scale version of TC. Where tanks get involved and monsters fight alongside and against them.
>>98646552this is some 40tard levels of delusion
>>98636451>ai slopop fucking kill yourself
>>98647462It's always this exact same response to this exact same post.. Smells like samefag
>>98667969Why are you such a hater bro?
>>98663690Naval 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.
Hey Trench Companion anonI saw that most of the new Naval Raider and Sacred Affliction Models didnt have photos because you were looking for some. I painted up my Carcass Front set and took some in front of this backdrop. I hope these may be of some use.Sacred:
>>98669773RaidersI apologize for my Iphones camera quality but I hope these still show up well
>>98646552No it's actually banned because of the Sydney video.
I could not give less of a fuck over naval whatever subfactions where the FUCK is my beast faction already?
Does Trench Crusade have funny little guys
>>98670556No.
>>98670556Yes
>>98670556we got a crab holding a grenade
>>98670622That model and faction don't exist thoughbeit.
>>98665112I made dnd 3rd ed into a goofball murder campaign with relative ease.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.
can someone make a general without ai garbage?
>>98668390AI slop is the antithesis of this hobby, fuck you and go fuck yourself
>>98671960AI slop reminds me of that old neurosis where you'd make a joke and nobody laughed but then Chad makes the same joke louder and everyone cheers. Except with slop engines you're just telling Chad what jokes to make in your place on purpose. Peak cuckoldry.

So saints are at least as powerful as paladins if Joan of Arc fucked up one of the Black Grail hegemons. How many humans become saints?

Hi, first poster here. I played my first game of TC and really enjoyed, used my friend's stosstruppen, and now I'm making a BG list with what I had bought, is it a good warband compo ?## Les Suceurs de Belzébuth ## Faction: Cult of the Black GrailRating: 696 Ducats | 0 GloryPatron: None## Elites ##Plague Knight - 155DUpgrades & Choices: Knight Companion of the FlyBattlekit: Beelzebub's Axe, Black Grail Shield, Reinforced ArmourCorpse Guard - 92DBattlekit: Putrid Shotgun, Plague Blade, Gas GrenadesCorpse Guard - 82DBattlekit: Plague Blade, Gas Grenades, Trench Shield## Troops ##Amalgam - 172DBattlekit: Putrid Shotgun, Greatsword / AxeHounds of the Black Grail - 60DUpgrades & Choices: Infested CarcassesHounds of the Black Grail - 60DUpgrades & Choices: Infested CarcassesFly Thrall - 25DGrail Thrall - 25DGrail Thrall - 25D## Stash ##Stashed Ducats: 4Unspent Glory: 0
>>98686593I 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 budgethttps://www.trenchcrusade.com/trench-wire/rules/amalgam-and-strains-rules-update/Heralds are also handy units to have, but well, you can't squeeze everything in there right away Have fun Anon, infect the hell out of them!

>>98636473>I'm still here and hoping.Same here lmao. Genuinely heartbreaking seeing what happened. TC is barely mentioned in the LGS Discord server where I am nowadays.>>98637391>What happened?I'm going to assume you are being genuine and not a troll feigning ignorance.Here is a good spot that highlights the things.https://web.archive.org/web/20260626020847/https://1d6chan.miraheze.org/wiki/Trench_Crusade#Controversies
>>98703077>https://web.archive.org/web/20260626020847/https://1d6chan.miraheze.org/wiki/Trench_Crusade#Controversiesnta but am I supposed to care ? It sounds like discord drama bullshit. I'm not in high school sorry
>>98703077The only big problem is the STL support and shift to plastic models. While the plastic models are good in their own rights, it's true it's a change of paradigm in what they promised early on.
>>98703077>discord drama and whining that business is not run like a charityK
I think I found a treasure trove, if someone needs theme fitting stl files. Especially for those who play the court.https://cults3d.com/en/design-collections/kaucukovnik/diablo-i-ii
>>98703136>>98703159I 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>>98703150For 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.
>>98703926I'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.
>>98704094Check 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...
>>98704175I'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
>>98704094>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 themThis has always been the plan. Tuomas Pirinen works as Chief Creative Officer at multinational game marketing leverage firm Reforged Studios.
>>98703926No 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.
>>98637061The 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?
>>98703077I 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.
>>98706090Court 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?
>>98706918There are a couple of lore tidbits and campaign exploration events that mention golems and kabbala. The hebrew knights are also a planned faithful faction
>>98706918Would be really ballsy to have them get front page presentation instead of crumbs that have to be searched for in lore.
>>98706090Definitely 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
>>98706090Grab 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?
>>98711161Its 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
>>98711992Nobody believes you lolPics 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.
>>98711992I’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 ForceNAME ROLE GLORY POINTS OPTIONSLieutenant Elite 1Sniper Priest EliteSniper Priest EliteTrench Cleric Elite 2Yeoman TroopCommunicant Anti-Tank Hunter Mercenary 5Mendelist Ammo Monk Mercenary 2Trench Dog MercenaryAny thoughts or tips from veterans?
>>98714059Hard to say anything since we don't know how you equipped your dudes - it's very important, especially for NAThe 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.

>>98706918One of the 5 announced future factions are the Hebrew Knights, which will be a Jewish faithful faction. Very little is known about them beyond that.
These dudes are massive. Besides me opponent being alright with it, is there any issue with burning them all up a base size? Raiders on 32mm's and the Anointed on a 40mm

>>98715368You will need to keep track of their "real" base size, since many abilities and mechanics in the game have base-size conditionals.
