Every once in a while I'll see someone like this post and nothing else I've done, despite it being buried under all the rest of my TC brainrot. I think that's beautiful.
That's one of my few major gripes with Trench Crusade, they have an opportunity to do what warhammer doesn't and humanize the "enemy" forces, and they just haven't. I want to know more about the heretics, their culture, their beliefs. Them being all evil with no humanity is lame as hell.
I made a very serious trench crusade fan game. you can play it in browser

Sorry, i guess that's not entirely the same point you're making
Not to say that TC is incredibly explicit. I've noticed people tend to split factions into "good guys vs bad guys." I think this is likely due to how the lore is intentionally biased, but an inch left for misunderstanding is an acre for fascists to latch onto
This is a really fair criticism, and one I personally think about a lot. Works parodying fascism tend to simultaneously make fascists look cool, even if they're explicitly anti-fascist (e.g. Helldivers, Wolfenstein). One could probably make some greater point about that, but I'm not that smart
Thanks! i stole it from CAIN :)
What was your list and what were you playing against? Some matchups are just really rough. Also, all the factions have community-made guides with pretty good advice for list building and strategies which might be helpful for troubleshooting what's going wrong (if it isn't just bad luck)
the hellephant, a "dragon" for Trench Crusade

Only made it like halfway through but it's better than i've ever done before for one of these monthly drawing challenges lol

Been getting really into CAIN lately
my Trench Crusade camapign, the Malian Scouring, nearly ready to go out!!!
shadowrun moment
The two that I like (Blood & Faith, and Thy Kingdom Come) both do really different things mechanically, they've got a lot of cool stuff between em. There's also Never Going Home which is not TC but it's a weird WW1 setting, also definitely worth looking into if it wasn't on your radar already
Trench Crusade yaoi are we feeling it chat
There's currently a handful of fanmade ttrpgs in the trench crusade discord, almost all of which are really cool
