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'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 WW1 levels and a third of Humanity has sided with the Infernal Princes. >How do I get started? https://www.trenchcrusade.com/ Grab the playtest rules and the lore primer here and check the FAQ for any other basic questions you might have.

(skirmish-scale tabletop miniatures game with rules designed by Mordenheim's Tuomas Pirinen with Mike Franchina as the artist) >Trench Crusade is a skirmish-scale tabletop miniatures game that will plunge players deep into a horrifying alternate timeline. During the Crusades a heretical band of Templars dared defy the Almighty and, casting aside their sacred vows, unleashed the forces of Hell upon the Earth. Over 800 years later, in the Year of Our Lord 1914, this brutal, merciless war between the forces of Heaven and Hell rages on. This is not just a fight for survival, but a cataclysmic struggle that will decide the very fate of humanity's soul.](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/002/818/649/b09.jpg "4chan Trench Crusade Thread (May 2024)")

This limit could be just how depressed it makes you, how much your friends are willing to bear, and how far your morbid creativity goes. For example: the "trench crusade" setting currently being created by the artist Mike Franchina is one of my favorite aesthetic works, despite its currently shallow worldbuilding. It borrows a lot from warhammer in that a faithful and pious army of pseudo-christians are fighting an all-out attritional hellwar against an unspeakably horrific army of heretics and their demonic allies. Pic related is an example of a heretic worshipper. Description: "Mongrel Supplicants Worshipers of the Beast, when deemed ready, are infected by blessed parasites that fall off the Beast Lords. The parasites are full to the brim with the Lord's transformative blood, and these supplicants then begin their change into misshapen horrors, and are granted the Voice of the Beast, which they howl into the sky in adoration." I feel like the people at my University's dnd club would find this too much. I still want to put it in though. I'm thinking about basing a game in this setting, maybe using one of the 40k rpg books as a rulebook, just switching out some names here and there. I can't remember which one allows you to play as guardsmen. One of the members played a game with guardsmen pcs at a meeting once so I could ask where he got his rules.](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/002/818/640/394.jpg "Trench Crusade 4chan Post (2020)")
