Fun fact, when describing the demons of hell to the Aztecs, the preachers where told they where basically what the Aztecs worshiped as gods. Also, the Aztecs where not really popular, they ruled through extreme fear and violence. Without the overwhelming support of the locals, the Spanish victory would have been impossible. So yeah, they would team up with hell in a heartbeat, but not all of the natives where like that.
It's hilarious reading the history of early Mexico. Aztecs listening to Catholics and facepalming _en masse_ that "We didn't need to do any of that!" Oh, but remember, like the European pagans, the Aztecs only ever converted to Catholicism because they were defeated, not because it was a more humane and satisfying religion ("God loves you enough that he sent his own son to save you. Yes, you personally. You matter to God.") than living in fear of some bloodthirsty murder cult.
true. I don't know why the left wants to side with the Aztecs so much? they are not the only culture in South America and they were almost the ancient world equivalent to Yazis. just saying. there was a good reason why EVERYONE sided against them as soon as they could.
@@harbl99 "Oh, but remember, like the European pagans, the Aztecs only ever converted to Catholicism because they were defeated" Off the top of my head, in Western Europe the first Anglo-Saxon converts in England where made when several thousand Saxons willing converted to Catholicism when a Mission from Rome visited there in the early Dark Ages, after which through the establishment of Catholic Monasteries and more missionary work it became the primary faith in the Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms. From England, Saint Patrick spread Catholicism to Ireland (at great personal risk to himself, even getting enslaved for several years at one point), again converting the tribes there willingly and without the threat of force or any army or Roman Legion or the like backing him up. Saint Columba then spread Celtic-Christianity from Ireland to the Picts and other pagan tribes in Scotland, again through mission work and with no military backing or any threat of force behind him. Back on the continent, the Visigoth Kingdoms in Spain very early on willingly converted to an early form of Arianism before eventually becoming Catholic, and King Clovis converted the Franks directly from paganism to Roman-Catholicism after swearing to do so if he were to win a great battle, which he did. Basically the only significant examples of "Pagans being forced to convert because they were defeated" came from events like Charlemagne slaughtering the remaining pagan tribes of the Saxons in East Germany after giving them an ultimatum to convert the previous year, and the Teutonic Crusades into Eastern Europe centuries later. In the Mediterranean and Western Europe however, and indeed in most of Eastern Europe under Orthodox Christianity the process from pagan to Christian was a willing one, either individually through the work of the proselytizing Saints like Saint Cyril or most of the population of a tribe or kingdom converting after the conversion of a King and his court. Much of the massive success of early Christianity in Europe is down to this process of willing, peaceful conversions, rather than the pagans being militarily defeated en masse or "living in fear of some bloodthirsty murder cult" (as if cultures with long histories of raiding and who invented such things as Blood Eagles would be afraid of something like that) like you ignorantly claim.
I think the best example of that malice is just that sheer blank Discord. It really just emphasizes that they didn't care about this, the genuine sole interest was in the malice of destroying something others had for being outside the scope.
"people are leaving 40k because they don't like women" Right. Who else wants a story focused on Sisters of Battle hunting a rogue Space Marine chapter?
The left intentionally doesn't like to think about the Sisters of Battle because they're too religious and serve the patriarchy (The Emperor and ecclesiarchy). They would shelve them if they weren't the only major "girl power" faction (and I believe they will once they finally have butch femmarines).
Trench Crusade were served up an eager fanbase on a silver platter, a situation most game devs could only dream of. And their response was to promptly vomit their vitriol thousands of potential customers. I hate modem day game development.
They couldnt wait to blow their shot. Also people: This is what you get when you give your "friends" power over your company to such a degree. YOU are the one investing your time and money, YOU are the one with all the financial risk, YOU are the one whos life will be destroyed if your friends fuck up your project because of their political idealogy. DO NOT make your "friends" into community managers. These discord mods? They will be fine after they tanked YOUR project 7 foot deep into the ground. You on the other hand will be left with nothing.. infact worse then nothing.. you wont even be able to find a new job in the industry because everyone will see that youre a failure AND have toxic baggage dragging along behind you.

I have to wonder if Tuomas is one of those people who think Finland should definitely participate in "slavery reparations" - because Finland produced non-insignificant portion of the tar required by the transatlantic slave trade. To explain why this is insane; 1) Finland was a Swedish colony at the time (not technically, same case with Algeria and France where latter declared former an "integral part.") 2) Average Finn involved in the tar industry was a destitute labourer trying to make a living or a poor peasant making use of his land. 3) Most goods produced by slavery, that made their way back into Finland, were luxuries that the average person could not afford. 4) If this standard is accepted, logical extension of it can make almost anyone guilty of almost anything, basically.
@@Xazamasoh he absolutely would. The Finnish people are white, or at least were before refugees were imported (don’t know how Finland handled it).

Moral relativism at all... If actual good and evil exist (which I believe it does) then moral relativism as a notion in play serves only to strengthen the position of evil and weaken the position of good. Therefore moral relativism is a force of evil.
@@tomaszwota1465 Is hard to define, as many said maybe something good for you, for other is evil or something that evil in short terms due to situation or long term is good. But seen we are in a kind of religious topic, what about these, good, will be something that allow to a society being built and prosper and benefict not only you but others, allowing them to prosper be a short or long turn, also not necesarily is always a good thing, maybe a thing that is for teaching them a situation or an action that maybe in the moment is counter prudent but at the same time in long term is necesary, also if these require an acction that damage others or hurt or cause a potential damage to others or theyre properties talk to them and explain respecting theyre decicion. As for evil is the oposite, causing a situation or taking for others, wiouth returning anything, or lying, deceiving in order to obtain more riches, or resources for you or those who you want to benefict, be because material or mental satisfaction, wiouth caring if these beneficts or help you, or the society around you in short or long run, or aquiring for you wiouth caring how are these obtain or if it is necesary for you. I think the reason i choose these idea, because good and evil are hard to define, but using the 7 capital sins as an example, all the sins are things that benefict you, or excess that benfeicts you taking all benefict at the cost of others or society you live, meanwhile the seven heavenly virtues, are the opposite they restrain you, you must restrain and show your restriction in order to give to others or mantain what is necesary so society prosper at the same time in these virtus are many, read about them, the corralation betwen the sins and the virtus and oyu have an idea where they go. I think the idea be behavuors that are not taken to excess, i think the idea is excess and avoid it, dont fall to excess and restrain, allowing by restrain not taken and allow others to prosper, with the idea the more you give to others the more you have to yourself, but at the same time, if we take the idea of back and foward, if you live in a society that respect, you respect and society respect you, so if you restrain yourself the society do the same, allowing you to prosper. These comes with the idea, a society that is sinful it gets corrupt, evil, why because everyone wants more for itself and those that you care, wiouth thinking in allowing others to prosper but more important taking from others, wanting from others, and seen others like nothing, objects numbers. So taking these how would i define good and evil, evil be conducts and acctions that look to take from others, be materail, resources, or even act in ways that make them unhappy, wiouth any way of return, taking wiouth any way of return, that beneficts me, or those that support me, wiouth caring or wiouth returning, in an excess way, meaning i dont need these, good is the opposite, i restrain miself, mi conduct and desires, in a way that i measure miself, these doesnt mean, i dont do anything that benefict me or take something for me, it measn i act but i dont exceed miself, in ways it hurts others or the society i live, i also think and care for it, and those who live in it,but remember you cant care for everyone in a society, when i said i care, means i think if mi acctions wont have a high impact in others, i respect others properties and material, i dont exceed miself. These is more or less what i think when i read the opposition of the seven sins and virtus
@@MnemonicHack The alternative seems to be a neverending age of darkness and suffering of which even death wouldn't be an escape. Like, Bruh, I read the lore primer.
I've known about Trench Crusade (or more accurately about the art pieces) for a long time and finally it dawned on me what problem I have with it and many other aspiring project. There are zero art pieces of the factions interacting, no battles depicted. That makes the whole thing feel like a pile of independent works instead of a coherent thing.
just think. they are more willing to have sympathy for actual hivemind bugs and murder demons than a fellow human being who just likes things differently.
What steinerscout said. I'd say worse. The original Bugs in Starship Troopers may be a group of genocidal Hive Mind Fascists but they're not particularly malicious, they just think this is their universe and we're all living in it. Nothing personal. The movie bugs are worse since they genocidally hate individual existence on concept. The Helldivers bugs MIGHT be intelligent and MIGHT have been benevolent at the start. Heck, even the Chaos Gods are multifaceted and not completely evil. In contrast this is Literal Satan fairly accurately portrayed. The Idea of Evil. Redeeming features? What are those?

Yeah playing Devil's advocate(pun intended) to the point of making excuses for the literal personifications of evil from Hell itself will do that to an image of people, especially if those people are anti-theists.
Its not that THEY don't believe in something, they just hate your religion for existing. Its much harder to brainwash you if you already believe in something. As an Atheist myself, I witnessed in real time the Atheist movement transform into this just before Hitchens died.

@@mcorte2224 Is your argument seriously that believing in and worshipping neither (how or why would you worship something that you do not believe exists?) is unironically the same as directly and sincerely worshipping the literal devil? Really? That is exactly the kind of uncompromising simplistic duality I would expect out of a communist ("For or against the revolution") and it makes you no friends amongst the undecided. It turns people against you who do not have to be your enemies because you leave them no choice.
Once I understood the philosophical meaning of Satan and sin as a metaphor or stand in for destructive influence, and not a literal horned dude with a pitchfork, my perspective changed a bit.

@@RedStar441 The issues of 28 I’ve flicked through were merely weak imitations of the modern, thin-on-the-ground White Dwarf format, but if it’s staffed by their rejects… God, I can only imagine.
Yeah. I see this as a positive. It always gets worse before it gets better, and if the infection is running THIS fast, I think they are nearing the end.
Certainly not human sacrifice, but there have been historically Christian practices(usually of more radical and fringe groups) that involved the inflicting or enduring of pain and suffering upon one’s self in order to “cleanse” the body and soul of sin. With some of the rationality for it being a mimicking of how Christ suffered upon the cross for the sins of mankind. Given this setting picks up around the time of the Crusades those ideas would have still been around and most certainly grown more extreme and mainstream when facing the literal demonic hordes. Just as they saw a public spike during the Black Death in our own reality.
Noone of the Christian-equivalent units actually work off explicit sacrifice unlike the Hell and Sultanate armies. The only mention of it is even said to be frowned upon by the church, but people on the frontlines in superstition wanting to offer themselves as protection of the not-dread on the Catherine wheel or criminals seeking atonement through blowing themselves up/unable to live with guilt and make a difference in the fight against hell and the sultanate. And that one of the not-dreads uses lambs blood to keep the wrath of god away from him when its brought down on the battlefield.
@@BigBroTejano the activities of flagellants and the skoptsy are hardly mentioned in the bible and even less encouraged. There's mention of Paul doing it to himself which is roughly where the scriptural basis begins and ends.
@@BigBroTejanoYou’re missing the point of what he’s saying, Christianity and Judaism don’t just not practice Human Sacrifice they specifically condemn the practice, it’s complicated and you need to understand some pretty heavy theological points to understand why, but for Christianity at least it’s actually tied into the reason that vampires where believed to be repelled by crosses, to involve human sacrifice into the Christian faction’s modus operandi is at the very least a pretty big misunderstanding of how Christianity works, and at worse it’s malicious in intent, either option is going to have a pretty big impact on how the narrative is handled.

Hey Arch. Im the one who started the idea of Aztecs and actually wanted them to be converted or at least use their symbol which was the eagle eating the snake which would be an amazing Church faction symbol. Then after a talk with Helis i accepted Evil worshipper Aztecs would be better and an Inca Catholic Empire with Tlaxcaltecas forces would be great to side with the Church to fight Aztecs. Its so sad it was over so fast, but at least im happy this little action of mine turned into a snowball that exposed the ones behind this game.
Och man I would liked that. Even probably would played The aztecs but not anymore. It is woke like Warhammer. Blantlant americanisation and wokeisation of warhammer already tought me to not be invested into anything.
ah, it is kinda sad that some Left tea made a nice toy and then saw some kids looks very interested in his toy, but it was those kids that he hated so much that he preferred to destroy his nice toy than sharing it with the kids that he hates out of spite. what a sad world we are living in
Trench Crusade was a weird speedrun for me. During my morning coffee I saw someone post artworks and I thought: "Hey, this looks neat. I'll have to look into it." After work and doing chores the next thing I saw was screenshots from their discord ree-ing about "tradcath chuds" and other buzzwords. Shame really, I liked the Iron Sultanate. I am a bit of a sucker for all things Ottoman.
I was going to jump on the KS at the time but I couldn't was bad timing but have been signed up to their play test stuff. And wow this has damaged things beyond belief. I bet they are just trying to sort their stuff out hard now trying to do their own thing like they should of from the start. Never get activists to run things for you.
The Aztecs sacrificed so many people that there are reports of the rivers running red. When the movie Appcolypto came out some south Americans tried to give Mel Gibson (director) grief for depicting them as blood thirsty. So they hired some historians to look into it... They found that if anything his portrayal was too kind. So, yes, they were blood thirsty savages.
This is some wild projection, im amazed to have seen all the stages. From the enter to mainstream to petitions, tantrums, the company starting to agree, then the gasligthing of "it was always satire" to quell the intruders, and now the npcs are gasligthing themselves into having always being part of the fandom they never cared about
@@carbonjohnson6414Its the normie's (derogatory) paradoxical obsession to be included in the popular thing but at the same time want to feel unique. Its a special brand of narcissisism for people with no personality or real convictions
Im convinced that they react so bad to fighting against demons is because they see themselves in them because they destroy any happiness and sense of humanity from everything like the demons so the action of violence against the enemy is seen as violence them so they attack us.
I don't get why they made the setting as it is if they were planning on making a critique of Christianity. "We wanted to critique Christianity, so we made a setting where they're fighting the forces of pure evil. Look at how bad the church is." It beggars belief. As an aside, the only setting where I would unironically join the demons would be the monster girl encyclopedia setting. And that's because the demons there just want to be waifus that have lots of sex with their husband and raise a family.
I think they somehow believe that they’re showing that the Christians are just as bad as the Demons, but as Arch points out that doesn’t really make sense here because everything the Christians are doing is being forced by the fact that they have to do these things or suffer a fate worse than death.
The setting looks to be a collaboration between an artist and a rules writer. We have a fair idea of Toumas's tastes, given the direction he took Warhammer Fantasy Battle and his work on Mordheim. The idea seems to be to create a setting around the art. The art is being created by one artist and is personal and nightmarish, the artist is clearly affected by Christianity that doesn't necessarily make them Christian or at least not the type of Christian who thinks that their enemies are literally demons and need to be destroyed. I doubt very much that the creators even want to be the next 40K. I am sure they would be happy to make enough out of this to eat, have a roof over their heads and do things for their family. But a big part of the motivation is also going to be artistic expression. Part of this is going to be a fascination with Medieval European culture but for very different reasons to an evangelical christian.
@@kayosiiii I don’t think this is just artistic expression, this is much darker, there’s a reason the 1980s writers of Warhammer chose not to use Christianity in their fantasy work, it’s not just because they where ripping off Elric of Melniboné and Michael Moorcock did it so they needed to do it, you can do moral ambiguity when it’s Chaos versus Order, because both can be taken to extremes, and become self-destructive, good vs evil can never be anything but black and white, and the only reason why you would try is because you hate the religion you’re claiming to critique.
@@drewjohnson-85 If I had a critique of Games Workshop that they frequently forget they are doing Law vs Chaos and stray into good vs evil territory in recent years. I think the characterisation of Chaos really becomes less interesting because of it. Just because the subject matter is humans (or heaven) vs hell doesn't mean that the underlying conflict is supposed to be good vs evil. Take for example Milton's "Paradise Lost", or a more recent example "Good Omens". I am not saying that Trench Crusade is the same but you do have to examine where you are making assumptions. Having said that I wouldn't be at all surprised if the artist was at some level dealing from trauma relating to Christian dogma. That's an experience that myself and a lot of other people have had.

Some dumb takes from people that don't know the lore out there, Astartes have no concept of "romantic" love or lust. They live for war, they are reapers of flesh and for the most part look down on baseline humans for being weak, rutting like animals etc. so it stands to reason they would be completely disgusted by what the alphabet people get up to.......
I don't think they care whether the Space Marines are capable of love or not. It's not about making sense, it's about turning Space Marines into a copy of themselves. It's about corrupting and destroying what fans of WH40k love, just because they hate seeing others having fun.
Sounds like it was a very anti-Christian game. Whole premise from the start is "What if the Crusades hadn't stopped killing the poor innocent muslims who never did anything wrong ever?" As if there hadn't been about a dozen genocidal Jihads before the first crusade ever happened.
Not sure where you are getting that. I read through the lore primer and have been involved in the discord and there’s definitely not an Islamic bias. For one they only get one faction while currently the Christians have two and a potential third in the works. They aren’t presented as better or worse than the Christians, both are presented as delving into their respective religions and sciences to gain an edge against the forces of hell.
This is fixed very simply: NEVER, EVER, allow the fandom to be a part of the development of your concept. It will turn to fucking shit every time. A concept/universe will stand on its own two feet.
Plenty of fandoms are competent enough to carry the mantle when the company itself goes away. In this case the pattern should be obvious why this one is spoiling everything.

The chat made the wrong choice in the poll. The only correct stance for developers like this is contempt and distain. Refusing to acknowledge their efforts and letting them rot on the vine is the best recourse. Do not give them attention, exposure or coverage. Focus that energy on far more deserving developers. It's not about giving ground, it's about supporting franchises that won't betray their ideals and their fans for DEI ideology.
They never thought the females were the reason the fans were upset, just like how they never actually thought the skin colour of the new Doctor in the latest season of Doctor Who was what the fans were upset about. Subvert, deflect and project is the name of the game. Never believe them when they claim to be "perplexed" or "get the wrong end of the stick" and start arguing about a totally different issue. They're not confused. They know exactly what they're doing. You can't lose a debate if you can make your opponent start debating something else entirely, especially if what you've tricked them into doing is defending themselves against an accusation of moral impurity - this is a particularly malicious one you should watch out for, because the very act of defending yourself against the accusation... is itself a validation of their claim to the moral high ground, and that's what they want. They want you to acknowledge that they are the true moral arbiters, and you are subject to their judgements.
I think one thing that has put me off was the lack of a byzantine empire faction and instead we get as always Ottomans that borrow hellenic and byzantine mythology and aesthetic because they have no identity of their own
A counter invasion is an interesting idea, the weapons of the enemy are twice as effective after all. I'd suggest straight up copying what we like of the setting, art and all, and then running with it in our own directions with only the smallest of acknowledgement for the origin of the setting. If they are this corrupt at their core, there is almost no chance the lore wont crumble as well in time; thus, better to take it from their hands and write our own lore. Given they can't, and have stated they won't try to, copywrite the general aesthetic, we can just make our own heaven vs hell in ww1, with Aztec demon worshippers and muslim, christen, and even jewish crusaders if we want.

if this does nothing else, then it should show you that there is no respite, there is no safe haven. your only choice is to keep your hobby alive however you can, to give no inch, and never by their products. start your own groups and meet others of like mindedness.

I recently started attending church (since Easter this year). Obviously I've been reading the rule book and lore (Bible) but I've started looking into the main company and their social engagement with customers (Vatican). Turns out the Church is also a victim of shrinkflation (devalued and stripped down services) and deep in the process of woke corporate takeover (the pope is woke and working with DEI and secular elites). The parallels to what's going on in geek culture are truly shocking. The very same forces employing the very same strategies and corrupting towards the very same ends. There is no escape. There is no retreat. There is no safety.

It's a shame, this had such a good aesthetic & some really great worldbuilding potential. I loved the ideas, something very similar to an aspect I had once lain out that I might still return to eventually which also had influence on the primary setting I now work on which currently includes books, TTRPG, & narrative videos nearing production. Such a tragedy to be decimated in its infancy by the infectious devilish whispers of DEI. I saw it, was greatly excited, then it destroyed my interest within an hour of having learned of it. I have some small fragile hope that Toumas pulls it back from the brink but at the moment I will stop following it at all. Oh also not interested in a shirt but I would be interested in a mug or pin.
If anything i think it should be everyone's beat interest to sort of "restart" the community. I feel like in their own effort to gatekeep (I want to make it very clear that i am supportive of gatekeeping, this is just that in this case), they placed a target on themselves and it's now making things bad. People jumped the gun so to speak and now it's backfiring onto the community as a whole.

Fair enough about the tabletop community as a whole but tabletop games are inherently community based. If you have your own game group that’s going to play it that doesn’t matter as much but the fact that neither local nor larger gaming bodies are discussing it means that it may end up dead in the water otherwise. I have a bad habit of getting into games without checking if the community as a whole plays it and then not having anyone to play with. I’ve got plenty that are playable around me but a couple that I jumped the shark on. TC is one that’s getting local interest due to it making the rounds online while Arch’s would probably be another one that would end up in my “there’s no community to play with” stack and I’m trying to keep that stack down haha.
The aztec thing is reasonable, but there is also the theory that the reason why so many of the central and southern Americans took on Christianity, on top of being forced, was because Christianity's god is the one that dies for them, not the other way around. So yeah I could see how the priest class, zealots and the like who may get more power and influence from joining the demons, would join them, but I can also see how the masses who would rather not be sacrificed, would side with Christianity.
What’s frustrating is seeing all this go down and causing needless controversy. Meanwhile the real controversy is waiting years at this point for them to get their kickstarter models out 😭
@@kayosiiiiChristus Rex Regum. Hope you enjoy knowing that all morality in the west viewed in a positive light is based on Christian values. Also including most scientific invention and progress is also from Christians. You should also be thanking the church you were even allowed an education as education was only for royalty before Christianity, oh and charity, helping the needy is thanks to Christianity. Community and healthy relationships was thanks to Christianity. Liberal views protected under law was thanks to Christianity too. Can keep going, but I already know based on your other comments that you're mentally stunted and have zero capacity for an open mind with a complete failure of understanding the "human experience", via psychology
This is a damn shame. But I guess it should be a lesson for any other companies wanting to engage with the public. Make sure you control your social media, and that you trust the people you put in charge of it, and that those moderators are in fact people who are worthy of trust. The developers behind Trench Crusade might be woke themselves, but even if so, they've just been thrown under the bus by their so called friends.
My sides are in orbit looking at the latest comments, looks like somebody did inject their politics to the game after all, and got their feelings hurt when the game wasn't christian right wing propaganda. I hope some of you will be able to enjoy cool things regardless of who makes them.
As someone who had no personal interest in WH40K, and not much interest in trench crusaders either (I'm just not into Grimdark)... I still find it a tragedy that the people who like that keep having their hobby subverted; I'd rather people segregate into enclaves with their preferred tone and genre rather than see those with conflicting tastes be forced to share a table... But as it stands, its getting harder to avoid the tourists and still enjoy one's hobbies without those who like Noblebright getting stuck playing with those who like Grimdark; not to mention all the shades in between, or worse.
Whenever I see these people making accusations of sorts towards anyone, it nearly always is projection; to accuse the others of what they are guilty of. Just like they attacked Shift Up and Stellar Blade for "daring" to have an asian female protagonist.
Around 1:02:13, I’m left with a conundrum. The meta-Christ thing is weird because the construction is wrong. Christ is a title meaning “the anointed, the expected,” with an emphasis on the “the” in the sentence. You’d need a Greek prefix similar to “pseudo” to make it work. The only sacrifices in the lore you’ve read out have been voluntary ones, making them strictly martyr-ings, not a “sacrifice” in the common English usage, which implies coercion of the offering. In a world where you have literal demons at your door, you have the biggest families you can and pray some of your young-uns are devote enough to be willing to be martyred for their family and Christendom by extension. The weirdest part of the lore is that a sequence of Islamic empires had been squatting on top of this book and never read the (literally) damned thing, despite having higher literacy rates than the templars… THAT is probably supposed to be a jab at Christian’s but I’m not following the how of their avoidance and can’t come up with an idea beyond “templars stupid but capable of performing esoterica”
Looks like 28 Mag can't tell the difference between getting punked, and being Punk. Color me surprised, unless that'd be black-face, I'm not Canadian enough to get away with that.
77 Saints tried to enter hell and convert them peacefully early on in the crusade, 700+ years later they are all still being tortured inside brazen bulls in hell.
I only heard about Trench Crusade 3 days ago, yet now I'm catching up to the drama. It's a real shame, the creators have gone and made a fun game with a fictional setting based in part on the tales of the Abrahamic faiths and people without good intentions came in and, rather than seeing this grotesquely beautiful thing for what it is, a chance to look at our world with love and gratitude, attack this work of art on the basis that "I don't like it" I've seen it to many times from different sorts of people and it's always saddening
Technically it was the Templars who opened the gates of hell. In real world history one of the accusations against the Templar Order during the persecution and destruction of their order was that they had fallen into heresy and the worship of “demonic” beings.
@@sadwingsraging3044 truly a shame how everyone I need to purge always happens to be guilty of some heresy or another. What a shame. But the idea of heretical templars does lend itself to interesting stories.
Whatever. They made their bed. They can lie in it now. Shame, seems like it would have been a really interesting setting. It is amazing that time and time again, these companies end up siding with the screaming minority who almost never buy what they're selling. They just can't wrap it around their head that it is really hard to sell a product when your priority is virtue signaling instead of just making the damn game.
I find it funny that the story of Trench Crusade starts with a bunch of gullible Templars unwittingly opening a gate to Hell, which results in a Daemonic invasion that overtakes the world, only for the exact same thing to happen to the community.
"You just want an excuse to do violence" WHAT THE HECK DO YOU THINK YOU DO IN A WARGAME? They going to say they just think this is a good aesthetic for a tea party or something?

Then the mods all congratulate them and point very hungrily at links that make them anything that looks like money, with desperation. But... no one does. So congrats, you won.
I say we take it over. We have talented artists. We have the greatest writers and lore masters. With 3D printers becoming ever more popular, we dont even need to support the woke creators by buying their actual models, when the community can copy the official ones and share the print files for free, or sell the unofficial prints to the fams who dont have the ability to print themselves. Let's do it!
Love that trench crusade clipped their own wings, and threw themselves into obscurity before we were even aware how woke they were, frankly saving us the effort I suppose.
1:03:11 Funny enough I think this is another example of the breakfast question in action. They cannot conceptualize a hypothetical, "how would you feel if you did not have breakfast yesterday" taken to an extreme, "what if literally hell invaded and God and Christianity were the only lines of defense" and they will answer, "well Christianity is bad therefore they would be bad"
To share the "I have a tabletop game idea" idea... I'm trying out a concept that I think would be a #wh40k "killer" because it goes right back to the core ideas of Warhammer 40,000 Rogue Trader- 1-The right amount of earnest seriousness, 2-A lot of epic teenage cringe moments, and finally 3-Massive amounts of sarcasm. I'm hoping that my Gen-X/Gen-Z teenage cringe, combined with a definite set of aesthetics (humans are '00 powered armor, "elves" are '80s/90s anime, "dwarves" are dieselpunk, "Chaos" has no less than SEVEN factions you can pick from, etc, etc, etc) can get people interested in going further. So, should I share more or should I work on this in quiet peace?
for the last bit, do both. Reach out and find SOME (that is the key word) people and get a think tank going and go quiet until everything is ready to unveil. Also NEVER go public and have stocks, that is how most good IPs die.
Honestly that kinda sounds like the Fantasy Flight 40k RPG's, and those are pure badassery bound in print. Although this whole debacle gave me the thought to make Trench Crusade into a D&D 5e supplement using the Savage Company book for 5e as a basis.
@@borderlands10 I liked the FFG 40K RPGs, and felt they were the closest we could reasonably get to a Warhammer 40K RPG in all respects. Especially with the hard-core focus on exactly one faction/part of the 40K universe. This is where I think the new RPG is failing, in that it's trying to do everything at once. But I'm keeping track of my notes, it might be useful at some point.
You know the first time I heard of this game Trench crusade was from a lore video from some random TH-cam I don't even remember and I thought it was cool and then the little next day videos of the conservancy came out. And they was people being mad that women was in the game even though they were sexualized and apparently there was actual neo-nazis being banned and they was people saying the Christian faction was evil and the Demon versus misunderstood. And I think it ended up ruining it for the left and the right.
For real, I became aware of Franchina's artwork when I was a pretty radical Christian, years ago. I thought it was metal AF. Sad to see this project killed in teh crib by the usual suspects.
The discord server1.2 seems welcoming to Catholics at least for now. UPDATE. They will mock you and laugh at you for real faithful people asking questions about the sincerity of it. So forget these fools.

Just let the man create a kickass universe, and if you are that indoctrinated in your belief system to the point of not being able to separate imagination from reality please just leave and stop ruining the fun for everyone else. EDIT: the discord thing is fucked up though
Fun fact, when describing the demons of hell to the Aztecs, the preachers where told they where basically what the Aztecs worshiped as gods.
Also, the Aztecs where not really popular, they ruled through extreme fear and violence. Without the overwhelming support of the locals, the Spanish victory would have been impossible.
So yeah, they would team up with hell in a heartbeat, but not all of the natives where like that.
It's hilarious reading the history of early Mexico. Aztecs listening to Catholics and facepalming _en masse_ that "We didn't need to do any of that!" Oh, but remember, like the European pagans, the Aztecs only ever converted to Catholicism because they were defeated, not because it was a more humane and satisfying religion ("God loves you enough that he sent his own son to save you. Yes, you personally. You matter to God.") than living in fear of some bloodthirsty murder cult.
@@harbl99plenty of European pagans converted without being conquered. Entire kingdoms converted peacefully at times.
true. I don't know why the left wants to side with the Aztecs so much? they are not the only culture in South America and they were almost the ancient world equivalent to Yazis.
just saying. there was a good reason why EVERYONE sided against them as soon as they could.
@@harbl99
Lmao most Pagan tribes/kingdoms converted without being conquered.
@@harbl99 "Oh, but remember, like the European pagans, the Aztecs only ever converted to Catholicism because they were defeated"
Off the top of my head, in Western Europe the first Anglo-Saxon converts in England where made when several thousand Saxons willing converted to Catholicism when a Mission from Rome visited there in the early Dark Ages, after which through the establishment of Catholic Monasteries and more missionary work it became the primary faith in the Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms.
From England, Saint Patrick spread Catholicism to Ireland (at great personal risk to himself, even getting enslaved for several years at one point), again converting the tribes there willingly and without the threat of force or any army or Roman Legion or the like backing him up.
Saint Columba then spread Celtic-Christianity from Ireland to the Picts and other pagan tribes in Scotland, again through mission work and with no military backing or any threat of force behind him.
Back on the continent, the Visigoth Kingdoms in Spain very early on willingly converted to an early form of Arianism before eventually becoming Catholic, and King Clovis converted the Franks directly from paganism to Roman-Catholicism after swearing to do so if he were to win a great battle, which he did.
Basically the only significant examples of "Pagans being forced to convert because they were defeated" came from events like Charlemagne slaughtering the remaining pagan tribes of the Saxons in East Germany after giving them an ultimatum to convert the previous year, and the Teutonic Crusades into Eastern Europe centuries later. In the Mediterranean and Western Europe however, and indeed in most of Eastern Europe under Orthodox Christianity the process from pagan to Christian was a willing one, either individually through the work of the proselytizing Saints like Saint Cyril or most of the population of a tribe or kingdom converting after the conversion of a King and his court.
Much of the massive success of early Christianity in Europe is down to this process of willing, peaceful conversions, rather than the pagans being militarily defeated en masse or "living in fear of some bloodthirsty murder cult" (as if cultures with long histories of raiding and who invented such things as Blood Eagles would be afraid of something like that) like you ignorantly claim.

I have to wonder if Tuomas is one of those people who think Finland should definitely participate in "slavery reparations" - because Finland produced non-insignificant portion of the tar required by the transatlantic slave trade.
To explain why this is insane;
1) Finland was a Swedish colony at the time (not technically, same case with Algeria and France where latter declared former an "integral part.")
2) Average Finn involved in the tar industry was a destitute labourer trying to make a living or a poor peasant making use of his land.
3) Most goods produced by slavery, that made their way back into Finland, were luxuries that the average person could not afford.
4) If this standard is accepted, logical extension of it can make almost anyone guilty of almost anything, basically.

@@astrovarius543how do you define good and evil then?
@@astrovarius543
What does God say about you not having taken your Schizo-meds again?
@@tomaszwota1465 Is hard to define, as many said maybe something good for you, for other is evil or something that evil in short terms due to situation or long term is good.
But seen we are in a kind of religious topic, what about these, good, will be something that allow to a society being built and prosper and benefict not only you but others, allowing them to prosper be a short or long turn, also not necesarily is always a good thing, maybe a thing that is for teaching them a situation or an action that maybe in the moment is counter prudent but at the same time in long term is necesary, also if these require an acction that damage others or hurt or cause a potential damage to others or theyre properties talk to them and explain respecting theyre decicion.
As for evil is the oposite, causing a situation or taking for others, wiouth returning anything, or lying, deceiving in order to obtain more riches, or resources for you or those who you want to benefict, be because material or mental satisfaction, wiouth caring if these beneficts or help you, or the society around you in short or long run, or aquiring for you wiouth caring how are these obtain or if it is necesary for you.
I think the reason i choose these idea, because good and evil are hard to define, but using the 7 capital sins as an example, all the sins are things that benefict you, or excess that benfeicts you taking all benefict at the cost of others or society you live, meanwhile the seven heavenly virtues, are the opposite they restrain you, you must restrain and show your restriction in order to give to others or mantain what is necesary so society prosper at the same time in these virtus are many, read about them, the corralation betwen the sins and the virtus and oyu have an idea where they go.
I think the idea be behavuors that are not taken to excess, i think the idea is excess and avoid it, dont fall to excess and restrain, allowing by restrain not taken and allow others to prosper, with the idea the more you give to others the more you have to yourself, but at the same time, if we take the idea of back and foward, if you live in a society that respect, you respect and society respect you, so if you restrain yourself the society do the same, allowing you to prosper.
These comes with the idea, a society that is sinful it gets corrupt, evil, why because everyone wants more for itself and those that you care, wiouth thinking in allowing others to prosper but more important taking from others, wanting from others, and seen others like nothing, objects numbers.
So taking these how would i define good and evil, evil be conducts and acctions that look to take from others, be materail, resources, or even act in ways that make them unhappy, wiouth any way of return, taking wiouth any way of return, that beneficts me, or those that support me, wiouth caring or wiouth returning, in an excess way, meaning i dont need these, good is the opposite, i restrain miself, mi conduct and desires, in a way that i measure miself, these doesnt mean, i dont do anything that benefict me or take something for me, it measn i act but i dont exceed miself, in ways it hurts others or the society i live, i also think and care for it, and those who live in it,but remember you cant care for everyone in a society, when i said i care, means i think if mi acctions wont have a high impact in others, i respect others properties and material, i dont exceed miself.
These is more or less what i think when i read the opposition of the seven sins and virtus

Thing is, Christianity does not and never has required human sacrifice so honestly I do see it as them trying to drag Christianity down to some extent
Certainly not human sacrifice, but there have been historically Christian practices(usually of more radical and fringe groups) that involved the inflicting or enduring of pain and suffering upon one’s self in order to “cleanse” the body and soul of sin. With some of the rationality for it being a mimicking of how Christ suffered upon the cross for the sins of mankind.
Given this setting picks up around the time of the Crusades those ideas would have still been around and most certainly grown more extreme and mainstream when facing the literal demonic hordes. Just as they saw a public spike during the Black Death in our own reality.
Noone of the Christian-equivalent units actually work off explicit sacrifice unlike the Hell and Sultanate armies.
The only mention of it is even said to be frowned upon by the church, but people on the frontlines in superstition wanting to offer themselves as protection of the not-dread on the Catherine wheel or criminals seeking atonement through blowing themselves up/unable to live with guilt and make a difference in the fight against hell and the sultanate.

Trench Crusade was a weird speedrun for me. During my morning coffee I saw someone post artworks and I thought: "Hey, this looks neat. I'll have to look into it." After work and doing chores the next thing I saw was screenshots from their discord ree-ing about "tradcath chuds" and other buzzwords.
Shame really, I liked the Iron Sultanate. I am a bit of a sucker for all things Ottoman.
I was going to jump on the KS at the time but I couldn't was bad timing but have been signed up to their play test stuff. And wow this has damaged things beyond belief. I bet they are just trying to sort their stuff out hard now trying to do their own thing like they should of from the start. Never get activists to run things for you.
Same I really like the Iron Sultanate
The Aztecs sacrificed so many people that there are reports of the rivers running red. When the movie Appcolypto came out some south Americans tried to give Mel Gibson (director) grief for depicting them as blood thirsty. So they hired some historians to look into it... They found that if anything his portrayal was too kind. So, yes, they were blood thirsty savages.
This is some wild projection, im amazed to have seen all the stages. From the enter to mainstream to petitions, tantrums, the company starting to agree, then the gasligthing of "it was always satire" to quell the intruders, and now the npcs are gasligthing themselves into having always being part of the fandom they never cared about

They whine about seeing repeated stuff all the time in entertainment. *It's always been "Christianity bad!" for literally decades now.*
Don't you find it weird how Christianity is always shown as bad while other religions is good?
Im convinced that they react so bad to fighting against demons is because they see themselves in them because they destroy any happiness and sense of humanity from everything like the demons so the action of violence against the enemy is seen as violence them so they attack us.
Or they ARE demonicly possessed...
When you got that mega corps mentality but don't git that mega corps money
I don't get why they made the setting as it is if they were planning on making a critique of Christianity. "We wanted to critique Christianity, so we made a setting where they're fighting the forces of pure evil. Look at how bad the church is." It beggars belief.
As an aside, the only setting where I would unironically join the demons would be the monster girl encyclopedia setting. And that's because the demons there just want to be waifus that have lots of sex with their husband and raise a family.
I think they somehow believe that they’re showing that the Christians are just as bad as the Demons, but as Arch points out that doesn’t really make sense here because everything the Christians are doing is being forced by the fact that they have to do these things or suffer a fate worse than death.
To be fair, good is not good if it does evil. Sacrificing human life to commune with the dead is the exact opposite of what God teaches in the bible.
The setting looks to be a collaboration between an artist and a rules writer. We have a fair idea of Toumas's tastes, given the direction he took Warhammer Fantasy Battle and his work on Mordheim. The idea seems to be to create a setting around the art. The art is being created by one artist and is personal and nightmarish, the artist is clearly affected by Christianity that doesn't necessarily make them Christian or at least not the type of Christian who thinks that their enemies are literally demons and need to be destroyed.
I doubt very much that the creators even want to be the next 40K. I am sure they would be happy to make enough out of this to eat, have a roof over their heads and do things for their family. But a big part of the motivation is also going to be artistic expression.
Part of this is going to be a fascination with Medieval European culture but for very different reasons to an evangelical christian.
@@kayosiiii I don’t think this is just artistic expression, this is much darker, there’s a reason the 1980s writers of Warhammer chose not to use Christianity in their fantasy work, it’s not just because they where ripping off Elric of Melniboné and Michael Moorcock did it so they needed to do it, you can do moral ambiguity when it’s Chaos versus Order, because both can be taken to extremes, and become self-destructive, good vs evil can never be anything but black and white, and the only reason why you would try is because you hate the religion you’re claiming to critique.
@@drewjohnson-85 If I had a critique of Games Workshop that they frequently forget they are doing Law vs Chaos and stray into good vs evil territory in recent years. I think the characterisation of Chaos really becomes less interesting because of it.
Just because the subject matter is humans (or heaven) vs hell doesn't mean that the underlying conflict is supposed to be good vs evil.
Take for example Milton's "Paradise Lost", or a more recent example "Good Omens".
I am not saying that Trench Crusade is the same but you do have to examine where you are making assumptions.
Having said that I wouldn't be at all surprised if the artist was at some level dealing from trauma relating to Christian dogma. That's an experience that myself and a lot of other people have had.
56:00 at this point it would be punker if they were uninronically pro church
It is already, since being punk usually is about being counter-culture. I’d argue that being left wing is quite mainstream these days.
Punk to Orthodox Christian pipeline is very real. Look up "Death to the World".
@@grand_lizard5663I mean the left controls literally everything besides podcasts and maybe some other things I’m forgetting. Literally all we have are podcasts and we still somehow won the election 😭😭😭
Some dumb takes from people that don't know the lore out there, Astartes have no concept of "romantic" love or lust. They live for war, they are reapers of flesh and for the most part look down on baseline humans for being weak, rutting like animals etc. so it stands to reason they would be completely disgusted by what the alphabet people get up to.......
I don't think they care whether the Space Marines are capable of love or not. It's not about making sense, it's about turning Space Marines into a copy of themselves. It's about corrupting and destroying what fans of WH40k love, just because they hate seeing others having fun.
Sounds like it was a very anti-Christian game. Whole premise from the start is "What if the Crusades hadn't stopped killing the poor innocent muslims who never did anything wrong ever?" As if there hadn't been about a dozen genocidal Jihads before the first crusade ever happened.
I think they favor Islam only because of the race, "POC" if you will, even though Islam isn't strictly about race.
How do you get that out of a setting where Christianity is fighting the literal forces of hell alongside the Muslims
Preach
Not sure where you are getting that. I read through the lore primer and have been involved in the discord and there’s definitely not an Islamic bias. For one they only get one faction while currently the Christians have two and a potential third in the works. They aren’t presented as better or worse than the Christians, both are presented as delving into their respective religions and sciences to gain an edge against the forces of hell.
> Uhhh, the Christians aren't the good guys in this, ackshually
> How dare you align the Aztecs with the demons
🥴
Isent 'banning people for vibes' just basicly 'banning people for wrongthink' though?
This is fixed very simply: NEVER, EVER, allow the fandom to be a part of the development of your concept. It will turn to fucking shit every time. A concept/universe will stand on its own two feet.
Plenty of fandoms are competent enough to carry the mantle when the company itself goes away. In this case the pattern should be obvious why this one is spoiling everything.

Spergs on the Internet never make anything better. Keep the unwashed masses the hell away from your product if you want it to have a shred of value.
@@RedStar441it all depends on external demographics:
Tumblur-like fandoms are mostly self containing circlejerks that exist within their own separate reality bubble, slowly fading into hyper niche communities that are almost impossible to stumble across the normal way.
Genshin-like communities are annoying privileged brats towards anyone that isn't part of them, and are utter menace towards their fellow members and content developers.
*'THE'* Wh40k in all of it's glorious Derp, on the other hand is beyond insufferable to the point where nothing containing even a single asset that's even remotely similar within 80 conceptual universes is allowed to exist. If GW doesn't get you, the WH40k fans *WILL* turn your whole community into a reference $h!t show even when they themselves adore your product and have the best of intentions for it.
And **IF** by a miracle you somehow manage to survive GW and the WH40k fans, then without a doubt you are *BOUND* to go down to the very far-right political locusts of insecure incels seeking 'temporary refuge community' as even WH40k dosen't want them- which on itself is a paradox considering the story of how WH40k came to be and the closeted political messages & biases within it.
I mean open source development have shown pretty good results and often the best writers and artists of a IP usually come from the fandom

decentralized things will always be open to subversion
The chat made the wrong choice in the poll. The only correct stance for developers like this is contempt and distain. Refusing to acknowledge their efforts and letting them rot on the vine is the best recourse.
Do not give them attention, exposure or coverage. Focus that energy on far more deserving developers. It's not about giving ground, it's about supporting franchises that won't betray their ideals and their fans for DEI ideology.
this
i know its cliche but make your own
not only that boycott any franchises that you supported once and have since turned their backs on you
When they side with the demons they are not stupid, they are identifying themselves.
That twitter post from Aurora is so generally evil. I’m surprised it didn’t realize how evil it actually sounded.
Those things have no self awareness.
They never thought the females were the reason the fans were upset, just like how they never actually thought the skin colour of the new Doctor in the latest season of Doctor Who was what the fans were upset about. Subvert, deflect and project is the name of the game.
Never believe them when they claim to be "perplexed" or "get the wrong end of the stick" and start arguing about a totally different issue. They're not confused. They know exactly what they're doing. You can't lose a debate if you can make your opponent start debating something else entirely, especially if what you've tricked them into doing is defending themselves against an accusation of moral impurity - this is a particularly malicious one you should watch out for, because the very act of defending yourself against the accusation... is itself a validation of their claim to the moral high ground, and that's what they want. They want you to acknowledge that they are the true moral arbiters, and you are subject to their judgements.
I think one thing that has put me off was the lack of a byzantine empire faction and instead we get as always Ottomans that borrow hellenic and byzantine mythology and aesthetic because they have no identity of their own
They don't want to bring up the Byzatine Empire cause they want to uphold their narrative that Christianity brought down Rome.
A counter invasion is an interesting idea, the weapons of the enemy are twice as effective after all. I'd suggest straight up copying what we like of the setting, art and all, and then running with it in our own directions with only the smallest of acknowledgement for the origin of the setting. If they are this corrupt at their core, there is almost no chance the lore wont crumble as well in time; thus, better to take it from their hands and write our own lore. Given they can't, and have stated they won't try to, copywrite the general aesthetic, we can just make our own heaven vs hell in ww1, with Aztec demon worshippers and muslim, christen, and even jewish crusaders if we want.
They said they aren’t copyrighting it?

People continually fail to learn the truth that there is nowhere to 'escape' to. The woke will always follow you like a haunting malevolent spirit. Oh, you're tired? Too fucking bad, you're not allowed to rest, because the left wing will not rest until they control everything
I recently started attending church (since Easter this year). Obviously I've been reading the rule book and lore (Bible) but I've started looking into the main company and their social engagement with customers (Vatican).
Turns out the Church is also a victim of shrinkflation (devalued and stripped down services) and deep in the process of woke corporate takeover (the pope is woke and working with DEI and secular elites).
The parallels to what's going on in geek culture are truly shocking. The very same forces employing the very same strategies and corrupting towards the very same ends.
There is no escape. There is no retreat. There is no safety.
Oh, and they're banning and shaming any employees (priests and bishops) who speak out against the take over.

You can make your own rules, make your own models, next is some tech to mix your own paint and they will be well and truly fucked
It's a shame, this had such a good aesthetic & some really great worldbuilding potential. I loved the ideas, something very similar to an aspect I had once lain out that I might still return to eventually which also had influence on the primary setting I now work on which currently includes books, TTRPG, & narrative videos nearing production. Such a tragedy to be decimated in its infancy by the infectious devilish whispers of DEI. I saw it, was greatly excited, then it destroyed my interest within an hour of having learned of it. I have some small fragile hope that Toumas pulls it back from the brink but at the moment I will stop following it at all.
Oh also not interested in a shirt but I would be interested in a mug or pin.
If anything i think it should be everyone's beat interest to sort of "restart" the community. I feel like in their own effort to gatekeep (I want to make it very clear that i am supportive of gatekeeping, this is just that in this case), they placed a target on themselves and it's now making things bad.

Sucks that the trench crusade turned out to be a dud. But at least we got more updates on arch's game that looks dope
Right, because trench crusade continuing to be successful is a dud but Arch’s game no one’s talking about or cares about is great. None of the tabletop communities, local groups, or online communities and blogs have been talking about it I’m sure it’s a banger.

@@cloudstrife2878 Ahhh, that’s fair. Yeah calling it a dud since it was dead on arrival for you makes sense. I thought you were talking about the game in relation to the wider tabletop community.
@@cloudstrife2878 I more meant it sounds odd to say a game that’s still going strong is a dud and then go on to say that a game no one’s heard of looks great. It seemed like you were suggesting that Arch’s game was comparatively successful when it’s not being talked about outside his own community. Fair enough about the tabletop community as a whole but tabletop games are inherently community based. If you have your own game group that’s going to play it that doesn’t matter as much but the fact that neither local nor larger gaming bodies are discussing it means that it may end up dead in the water otherwise. I have a bad habit of getting into games without checking if the community as a whole plays it and then not having anyone to play with. I’ve got plenty that are playable around me but a couple that I jumped the shark on. TC is one that’s getting local interest due to it making the rounds online while Arch’s would probably be another one that would end up in my “there’s no community to play with” stack and I’m trying to keep that stack down haha.
… I had to literally stop and read that bit about justifiable violence. That hurt my head it was so stupid
The aztec thing is reasonable, but there is also the theory that the reason why so many of the central and southern Americans took on Christianity, on top of being forced, was because Christianity's god is the one that dies for them, not the other way around. So yeah I could see how the priest class, zealots and the like who may get more power and influence from joining the demons, would join them, but I can also see how the masses who would rather not be sacrificed, would side with Christianity.
What’s frustrating is seeing all this go down and causing needless controversy. Meanwhile the real controversy is waiting years at this point for them to get their kickstarter models out 😭

As someone who had no personal interest in WH40K, and not much interest in trench crusaders either (I'm just not into Grimdark)... I still find it a tragedy that the people who like that keep having their hobby subverted; I'd rather people segregate into enclaves with their preferred tone and genre rather than see those with conflicting tastes be forced to share a table... But as it stands, its getting harder to avoid the tourists and still enjoy one's hobbies without those who like Noblebright getting stuck playing with those who like Grimdark; not to mention all the shades in between, or worse.
Whenever I see these people making accusations of sorts towards anyone, it nearly always is projection; to accuse the others of what they are guilty of.
Just like they attacked Shift Up and Stellar Blade for "daring" to have an asian female protagonist.
Around 1:02:13, I’m left with a conundrum.
The meta-Christ thing is weird because the construction is wrong. Christ is a title meaning “the anointed, the expected,” with an emphasis on the “the” in the sentence. You’d need a Greek prefix similar to “pseudo” to make it work.
The only sacrifices in the lore you’ve read out have been voluntary ones, making them strictly martyr-ings, not a “sacrifice” in the common English usage, which implies coercion of the offering. In a world where you have literal demons at your door, you have the biggest families you can and pray some of your young-uns are devote enough to be willing to be martyred for their family and Christendom by extension.
The weirdest part of the lore is that a sequence of Islamic empires had been squatting on top of this book and never read the (literally) damned thing, despite having higher literacy rates than the templars… THAT is probably supposed to be a jab at Christian’s but I’m not following the how of their avoidance and can’t come up with an idea beyond “templars stupid but capable of performing esoterica”
Looks like 28 Mag can't tell the difference between getting punked, and being Punk. Color me surprised, unless that'd be black-face, I'm not Canadian enough to get away with that.

I only heard about Trench Crusade 3 days ago, yet now I'm catching up to the drama. It's a real shame, the creators have gone and made a fun game with a fictional setting based in part on the tales of the Abrahamic faiths and people without good intentions came in and, rather than seeing this grotesquely beautiful thing for what it is, a chance to look at our world with love and gratitude, attack this work of art on the basis that "I don't like it" I've seen it to many times from different sorts of people and it's always saddening
Wait, so the Crhistians opened the gates of hell on porpuse? Aww cmon why do we have to be the fucking badguys all the time
Technically it was the Templars who opened the gates of hell. In real world history one of the accusations against the Templar Order during the persecution and destruction of their order was that they had fallen into heresy and the worship of “demonic” beings.

I'm hoping that my Gen-X/Gen-Z teenage cringe, combined with a definite set of aesthetics (humans are '00 powered armor, "elves" are '80s/90s anime, "dwarves" are dieselpunk, "Chaos" has no less than SEVEN factions you can pick from, etc, etc, etc) can get people interested in going further.
So, should I share more or should I work on this in quiet peace?
for the last bit, do both. Reach out and find SOME (that is the key word) people and get a think tank going and go quiet until everything is ready to unveil.
Also NEVER go public and have stocks, that is how most good IPs die.
Honestly that kinda sounds like the Fantasy Flight 40k RPG's, and those are pure badassery bound in print. Although this whole debacle gave me the thought to make Trench Crusade into a D&D 5e supplement using the Savage Company book for 5e as a basis.
@@borderlands10 I liked the FFG 40K RPGs, and felt they were the closest we could reasonably get to a Warhammer 40K RPG in all respects. Especially with the hard-core focus on exactly one faction/part of the 40K universe. This is where I think the new RPG is failing, in that it's trying to do everything at once.
But I'm keeping track of my notes, it might be useful at some point.
You know the first time I heard of this game Trench crusade was from a lore video from some random TH-cam I don't even remember and I thought it was cool and then the little next day videos of the conservancy came out. And they was people being mad that women was in the game even though they were sexualized and apparently there was actual neo-nazis being banned and they was people saying the Christian faction was evil and the Demon versus misunderstood. And I think it ended up ruining it for the left and the right.
This setting goes so hard I could probably get some Christian fundamentalists to get into it.
For real, I became aware of Franchina's artwork when I was a pretty radical Christian, years ago. I thought it was metal AF. Sad to see this project killed in teh crib by the usual suspects.
Nope. Too much heresy.
ive been behind enemy lines most of my life being a fan of harry potter, still now but ESPECIALLY back when rowling was the lefty saint
I'm glad I didn't get into it but I still wish for a non corrupted replacement for 40k
The discord server1.2 seems welcoming to Catholics at least for now.
UPDATE. They will mock you and laugh at you for real faithful people asking questions about the sincerity of it. So forget these fools.
I can't imagine being an artist these days and seeing people abuse your passion as a political tool. Just let the man create a kickass universe, and if you are that indoctrinated in your belief system to the point of not being able to separate imagination from reality please just leave and stop ruining the fun for everyone else. EDIT: the discord thing is fucked up though
