Heads up, recruits! Welcome to the frontline.
Not knowing your way around is the easiest way to get in trouble here, all it takes is a misstep, you pull your guard down for a moment and you’ll find yourselves in the landing area of an Infernal Bomb, or in the path of a rampaging Brazen Bull. You can never be too prepared, I say, so let’s take a tour of the site together.
In the Rules of Engagement section you can find a guide on how to play Trench Crusade, from basic game concepts to the most advanced and mind-boggling rules interactions. If you are new to the game I suggest you to start from here.
Want to know more about the lore, gameplay and tactics of a specific faction or variant? Armies of the Great War is the right place to go, while Unsung Heroes shows examples of warband lists as a potential source of inspiration.
My personal journey into the world of Trench Crusade is recorded in the Troll’s Lab, where I showcase my poorly painted warbands and even-more poorly crafted board and terrain, and in the Chronicles from the Trenches, where you’ll find reports of games I played and events I attended to.
If you have any questions or doubts regarding the rules, feel free to check the House of Wisdom. Here I’ve collected the accumulated knowledge of the game designers and the Trench Crusade Discord community.
Finally, the Links and Resources page collects various links to official and fan-made websites and material you might find useful or interesting.
Troll-sized disclaimer: Trench Crusade is currently in its playtesting phase. While the base mechanics and core rules are in a rather advanced stage of development, everything is still susceptible to change. All the material published here always refers to the latest consolidated version of the rules available on the Trench Crusade website www.trenchcrusade.com when the post is published. The same is true for any Q&A listed in the House of Wisdom section. Whenever possible I will try to provide updates, changelogs and errata in a timely fashion.
