These guys are honestly most of all depressing. Many of these people are the same crusaders that fought them and then couldn’t take it anymore, or people who just can’t hold on. It’s so fucking sad.
@@scannerbarklyconsidering that faith is unironically powerful enough to manifest miracles in this universe. Imagine what would happen to one of these spies if they saw a Paladin at work.
Atleast Nurgle alleviates your suffering and gives meaning to your degradation. Nurgle loves you in a strange twisted way, but Beelzebub just hates you.
Honestly im not relgious but i do play warhammer. The way the paladins are explained in this and how they cant make them anymore or even their armor but they are also the only ones who can go into the gates of hell and are paragons of humanity that the enemy fears is really badass
It fits perfectly into my favourite depiction of fantasy Knights. Any fool can slap plate armour on his body, pick up a sword and declare himself a Knight of the realm. But in the end what really matters is how one reacts to a faceless abomination from the pit charging directly at them.
Trench crusade is so incredibly grim-derp, but instead of being satirical (like early warhammer), it takes itself so INCREDIBLY seriously that you have to kinda respect it's tryhardness
Yeah. One of the reasons I like it is because it has the late 80s early 90s vibe that I started the hobby with. Shit just went hard because at the time doing so went against the grain. The weird thing now is that everybody takes EVERYTHING so seriously all the time. TC is definitely a serious world, but the folks making it are just trying to have some fun and recapture that 90s vibe.
I wish we had more information on the hell faction it has so much potential also Thank you for making this glorious video may thine Videos grow to be as renowned as the Iron wall
I am hoping we will get a lot more lore around specific characters and power players in the faction as time goes on. I'm also really curious about any prominent humans who threw in their lot with the forces of hell!
@scannerbarkly I agree with you on wanting more information on specific characters and power players like I want to know more about Duke Constantine and the 7th meta christ
The lore is interesting because it's super cool and intriguing. The game is interesting because it lit an M80 firecracker, put it between it's teeth and threw itself head first down a spiral staircase.
"Yeah, so we're gonna rip reality apart at the most fundamental level, and that's gonna convert into an absolutely absurd amount of energy. Please stand by while the power of the sun erases you from existence."
unfornatly it seems in this universe the powers of hell beat humanity to the nukes. antioch was destroyed by a hell nuke before it became new antioch. then again angels basically act like nukes just by existing on earth so not totally lost yet.
The way the game seems to focus a lot on Beelzebub and his unholy works and followers makes me wonder if the creator is a Warhammer Nurgle fan. Also, teh designs of the Plague Knights looks cool and well done.
I've seen most of these concept art images on Google for the past few years before this whole series was really a thing, I'm kind of Hoping that someone will make specialized Art for this genre Because the concept art is cool and all but it just brings me back to when I was in middle school and I thought it all looked edgy and awesome. I don't recognize everyone of the backgrounds being shown but I recognize the majority of them as stuff taken off Google.
I wonder what Asia and Africa are doing during all this? Will the heretics take all of the new worlds or do the crusaders hold South America while heretics hold the north
With the state Europe is in, I doubt that there is any knowledge of the new world. Too busy killing heretics to explore the world. It would be cool if the Mayans sailed across the ocean and discovered them first. That would technically make Europe the “new world”
Reading the lore, it mentions that the “Domains of Africa” pays tithe to New Antioch. They could be colonies, could also just be Christian African nations.
I doubt anyone knows about the new world. Too busy killing heretics I bet. It would be cool if the Mayans sailed across the ocean and discovered them first. That would technically make Europe the “New World”
I doubt anyone knows about the new world. It would be cool if the Mayans sailed across the ocean and discovered them first. That would technically make Europe the “New World”
Considering all sides have access to supernatural knowledĝe i assume that includes a map of the world. So, presumably, they are fighting proxy wars but very little european colonisation because no one has the resources to fully exploit the new world
That's actually the devil's fate. His kingdom is like a pyramid, with him at the top, and the increasingly suffering masses under his control bearing progressively more and more weight toward the bottom. However, when the devil faces judgment, this system will be reversed, and all the souls he led into damnation will weigh on top of him. He will be eternally crushed by the very souls he brought down with him. He won't even be able to feel satisfaction for damning them because they will be above him and suffering less than he will. Don't let those dreams try to put his punishment on you. Think of it as a good sign, because the devil attacks those closest to God the most.
Why is it always the upside down crosses that people get wrong? Like people know that's St. Peter's cross right? Not at all satanic or demonic but whatever. Still cool lore
If I recall correctly, the reason St. Peter wanted to be crucified upside down was symbolic. It was a statement that the values of the people were upside down. So, if you think about it in that way, an inverted cross symbolizes the inverted values of christianity.
@@zaneaustin3021 Nope. Peter was crucified upside down because he requested it, saying that he wished not to be crucified the same way as his Lord as he denied Jesus 3 times. It's a symbol of humility. It's mostly a catholic tradition, far as I'm aware.
From what i gather so far, what Easter Orthodox see it as The upside down cross (Cross of Peter) is a sign of Humility, and respect for Christ. And when people use it wrong, some say its an Irony, and some see it as disrespcatble. But, God teach through irony, so there are some Irony in the miss use of it. Simple as.
Time to leave warhemmer and go into a new land. Also kinda sad how this feels more like chaos than the chaos in 40k right now before slannesh had naked demon khorn demons where brutal nurgle was disgusting and tzzench looked like an abomination rather than cute birds 🦅.

Something ive noticed, and i dont know much about like christian "Demonology" so idk if thats accurate to ttue christian "Lore" but i find it interesting that the sort of home bases of both beezlebub and the Death spectre guy are the 7th layer of hell specifically. Is this following dante's structure of hell where hell is multiple layers designated for each specific sin, or is it just sort of a vague/not elaborated upon "layered" shape? Also quite like the vid, i was exposed to trench crusade like yesterday by some great art/narration channel i dont remember seeing the name of and then got recommended your channel for lore
@@scannerbarkly Gotcha I'll just use my old castle ruin and temple terrain. That oughta do lol. Thanks for making these videos, me and the bois will be watching this project very closely!
@@disturbedrenegade9815 It definitely would be a good way to help build the world more and make the campaigns more immersive for sure. Im very excited for this hobby, have been binging lore ever since I learned of it.
This game gives serious, blood bourne/dark souls/elden rings vibes. Ive just subscribed to the newsletter and will definitely be jumping on the Kickstarter
You can find some lore vids on Trench Officers channel here - www.youtube.com/@a_random_orthodox_Christian I shall also be doing more vids myself, with one on The Iron Sultanate coming later today. :)
Kitbashing is highly encouraged by the devs although they are releasing optional minis for it as well, there is some free rules on their site at the moment but the full book will be coming out on PDF & bound paper after the kickstarter I believe
So you burn the yourself to get into the army where subsequently fight in trenches until you die, then you burn in hell. Sounds like a great deal for those heretic legions. I can totally see why they are so eager to join up.
It's a fun question, no doubt. The easy answer is that God did just snap his fingers and put everything right, there wouldn't be much of a game to play. lol We can also argue that God does have direct intervention in the form miracles performed by certain troops, certain technological discoveries that inform weapons and armor, and you could even argue that elements of the world such as the Meta-Christ indicate that he is taking action to help. I think the good thing is that the playerbase will come up with all manner of theories. I like the idea that this is turning mankind into something that it needs to be, one way or the other.
The reason for this is that, Jesus (the most high GOD walking the earth in a flesh body, just like we for now inhabit) has told us all things; of the which, there are a great many that needs yet to happen down here in the murk under the sun. And they shall come to pass. So he does as you inquire, but not yet. Yes, you are being tested; and GOD breaks the weak. Mark 13 (kjv) (it is important to use a kjv, as that is meted out with what is known as the Strong's Concordance, so all the words can be looked up and defined; even though the Bible has a built in dictionary, that is enough, it is the only assembled writings in existence to have such a thing - and that cannot be explained away or disregarded in any honesty. Or an older version. The new "versions" that have newly "sprang up" have been altered in a quite vile way by some quite vain fellows; and there is a penalty that will rest upon them for doing what they have purposefully done. Notwithstanding, GOD promised to preserve His Word to all "Generations" and send teachers, and lo, He has.) Revelation 22:18-19 (kjv)
According to one of the lore blurbs, an Angel appeared on the battlefield once and it glassed both armies just by being there. So safe to say if the angels get involved it’s game over for humanity.
@@Chaotic_JackalIncludikg himself? My point is there is this implication that the goal is eternal suffering through pestilence. If everything is destroyed, there is nothing left to suffer. Where’s the fun in that?
@@scannerbarkly it’s missing what makes chaos in 40k a reasonable faction: a reason to join. “Some people are just evil” is not enough to maintain a mortal army for 900 years. Especially when the mortality rate of simply living in hell on earth is probably higher than average, much less fighting a constant war. In 40k, chaos can corrupt, seduce, and mislead. Hell needs a honeypot to explain mortal defections.
Hell is broken up into a lot of different factions that all hate each other, so it's actually quite hard for them to get any semblance of real "top to bottom" organization on.
I know you’re likely not intending on plagiarizing, but please do cite the source or reference via a visual indicator when quoting something like the lore sampler. It’ll save you a lot of pain.
I talk to the devs all the time. I think I'm good. For the viewer's sake, anything that is not officially or where I add my own lore I clearly state so in the description. In this one I clearly state it is from official sources.
It'd be cool if they did it for both sides. In the sense that on one hand you've got the people on the side of the faithful fighting Hell but Hell's forces are also bolstered by the more monstrous spirits from within the pantheon of the newcomers. Imagine what a Wendigo would look like in this universe.
@@NorthernNorthdude91749 of course, that wasn't the point. My point was that different cultures equivalent of demons could be used as new units for hell. The Wendigo is undeniably malevolent in all versions of the legend.
The only complaint I have is that the upside down cross is not evil (it's the cross of St Peter) and more tied to lazy hollywood writing. Other than that, the other esoteric symbols are very fitting for a demon cult.
@@Aberinkula9 If he see the sword coming, and he blow not the trumpet, and men are slain by it, then he is guilty. But if he see the sword and blow the trumpet and men are warned and perhaps live - but if a man hears the trumpet and disregards it, and is taken, then the sentry is clean of the blood of those men.
I explore switching up to a more synthy ambient thing, but I definitely can't put up long videos of my own dumb shit sounding voice without something in the background. lol
@@dcyork2703 funny enough the whole demon worshipping Jews thing started because a man asked God for a book of demons that's will let him and his buds build amazing temple for God and they did literally that so technically the chains that hold the demons are Holy
At the moment their are only four factions, I assume we shall see more over time. Not entire sure how the devs would or will go about a faction based on the Jewish faith as so far the "faith" concept has been pretty hand in hand with a geographical connection. This is all pre-WWI, so Israel has yet to be established and the Levant has been utterly overrun by the Heretic forces. It would be incredibly cool, frankly, because like most religions there is some super dank stuff to explore in Jewish faith, tradition, and custom. I would guess we will see some homebrew rules at some point, if nothing else.
@@scannerbarkly so looked further into it they are coming all 3 big Abrahamic faiths will have a faction at minimum and with that in mind Jews would be probably represented as a probably secretive elite faction with Wizards and demon controlling powers if what I think they will do with the history of my people like the monks who hurt themselves to become close to God Christians and redemption through pain makes sense so by the logic of Solomon asking God for a book on demons and controlling them is something that is written about so at minimum Kabbalah wizards with Galils.
Pretty sure you would consider the people who developed this woke, my dude. You'll need to find a different thing to distract from those things you seem to dislike so much.
Aaah! You tell about woke worshipping in this game's community by legal media representatives of this product. Yeah, it's hell, but not on Earth - in internet😂.
Mate, there are thousands of us in the Discord eager awaiting this thing to hit Kickstarter. Stop listening to crybaby wankers and just enjoy the game.
@INSANESUICIDE The only one talking about politics is you, so do yourself a favor and stfu, cause you look like a moron yourself, and you're jealous that we're having fun with this setting cause we're not narrow-minded chuds like you.
@@Saruman_Ring-Maker The setting of a post apocalyptic WW1 inspired religious crusade an endless grinding war between religious fanatics and the forces of hell itself? Yeah it is very cool. The devs deciding to go woke and kiss the ring? Not.

(it is important to use a kjv, as that is meted out with what is known as the Strong's Concordance, so all the words can be looked up and defined; even though the Bible has a built in dictionary, that is enough, it is the only assembled writings in existence to have such a thing - and that cannot be explained away or disregarded in any honesty. Or an older version. The new "versions" that have newly "sprang up" have been altered in a quite vile way by some quite vain fellows; and there is a penalty that will rest upon them for doing what they have purposefully done. Notwithstanding, GOD promised to preserve His Word to all "Generations" and send teachers, and lo, He has.)
Revelation 22:18-19 (kjv)
Same reason he hasn't in real life I'd guess
Would not surprise me if they had blitzkrieg nezis warriors
i'm guessing angels are scarce here for good reason...
According to one of the lore blurbs, an Angel appeared on the battlefield once and it glassed both armies just by being there. So safe to say if the angels get involved it’s game over for humanity.
If Beelsebubba succeeded, wouldn’t the parasites die out with no hosts to feed on?
Yes but that’s kinda the point. The Lord of Flies cares nothing for their minions and wants everything to sicken and die
@@Chaotic_JackalIncludikg himself? My point is there is this implication that the goal is eternal suffering through pestilence. If everything is destroyed, there is nothing left to suffer. Where’s the fun in that?
I don’t understand why anyone would join the forces of hell, what do you even gain?
Lots of folks are just wankers, and would rather be the boot on the neck than run the risk of being subjugated themselves.
@@scannerbarkly it’s missing what makes chaos in 40k a reasonable faction: a reason to join. “Some people are just evil” is not enough to maintain a mortal army for 900 years. Especially when the mortality rate of simply living in hell on earth is probably higher than average, much less fighting a constant war.
In 40k, chaos can corrupt, seduce, and mislead. Hell needs a honeypot to explain mortal defections.
How are they governed? Is there a king of the earthly domain of hell? Is it pure anarchy?
Hell is broken up into a lot of different factions that all hate each other, so it's actually quite hard for them to get any semblance of real "top to bottom" organization on.
Only other person I've seen that knows thee movie a scanner darkly
I know you’re likely not intending on plagiarizing, but please do cite the source or reference via a visual indicator when quoting something like the lore sampler. It’ll save you a lot of pain.
I talk to the devs all the time. I think I'm good. For the viewer's sake, anything that is not officially or where I add my own lore I clearly state so in the description. In this one I clearly state it is from official sources.
@@scannerbarklyok cool, just making sure.
I wonder how they will bring other religion into it. Like old African beliefs or Native American
It'd be cool if they did it for both sides. In the sense that on one hand you've got the people on the side of the faithful fighting Hell but Hell's forces are also bolstered by the more monstrous spirits from within the pantheon of the newcomers. Imagine what a Wendigo would look like in this universe.
@@kieranadamson3224Non-Christian religions wouldn't have to automatically be aligned with Hell.
@@NorthernNorthdude91749 of course, that wasn't the point. My point was that different cultures equivalent of demons could be used as new units for hell. The Wendigo is undeniably malevolent in all versions of the legend.

I must get my hands on this game, hopefully the developer can stop screwing themselves.
Children children…
This is Disney Land lore
Compared to what evil is yet to be revealed…
Time to pick your side
HAIL TRENCH CRUSADE
are there pagans as a factoin
Not as a detailed faction, as the idea of "pagan" is pretty broad. It's likely we will get stuff that would fall into that category down the line.
Aren't us Irish in this kinda pagan? The rangers like?
@@thekirbinator2934 Nope, they’re a part of the Christian nations and provide troops to the Church.
@@thekirbinator2934Nope. The Irish are Catholic in Trench Crusade.
Love yew scanner
The only complaint I have is that the upside down cross is not evil (it's the cross of St Peter) and more tied to lazy hollywood writing. Other than that, the other esoteric symbols are very fitting for a demon cult.
Yep, I've found my people! AVE SATHANIA!
Stay away from stuff like that. It'll do you no good and put your soul at risk. Turn back to Jesus, He actually cares about you, unlike the Evil One.
@@CantusTropus No - and don't you dare giving me orders, specially when I am clearly roleplaying. You are not God, THANK GOD!
@@Aberinkula9 It appears that a vigilant watchman on the wall has seen a sword coming, and has sounded a trumpet, friend.
@@whitemiasma5288 That is clearly a religious symbol. Other than that... what?!
@@Aberinkula9 If he see the sword coming, and he blow not the trumpet, and men are slain by it, then he is guilty. But if he see the sword and blow the trumpet and men are warned and perhaps live - but if a man hears the trumpet and disregards it, and is taken, then the sentry is clean of the blood of those men.
🤘👹🤘
Dude the background music gotta go i feel like im havihg a stroke listening 😢
I explore switching up to a more synthy ambient thing, but I definitely can't put up long videos of my own dumb shit sounding voice without something in the background. lol
@@scannerbarkly so what is it called?
Sounds like the Ruzzian army
So is there a Jewish inspired faction
@@dcyork2703 funny enough the whole demon worshipping Jews thing started because a man asked God for a book of demons that's will let him and his buds build amazing temple for God and they did literally that so technically the chains that hold the demons are Holy
At the moment their are only four factions, I assume we shall see more over time. Not entire sure how the devs would or will go about a faction based on the Jewish faith as so far the "faith" concept has been pretty hand in hand with a geographical connection. This is all pre-WWI, so Israel has yet to be established and the Levant has been utterly overrun by the Heretic forces. It would be incredibly cool, frankly, because like most religions there is some super dank stuff to explore in Jewish faith, tradition, and custom.
I would guess we will see some homebrew rules at some point, if nothing else.
@@scannerbarkly so looked further into it they are coming all 3 big Abrahamic faiths will have a faction at minimum and with that in mind Jews would be probably represented as a probably secretive elite faction with Wizards and demon controlling powers if what I think they will do with the history of my people like the monks who hurt themselves to become close to God Christians and redemption through pain makes sense so by the logic of Solomon asking God for a book on demons and controlling them is something that is written about so at minimum Kabbalah wizards with Galils.
I imagine that Seals of Solomon and Kabbalah will be present.
@@____________838 now let's home they are something that isn't a horde army
Holy Hell
This is the best shit ever! 🤘
so far Beelzebub in this setting sounds like a Nurgle ripoff, and the Death Commandos are by far the coolest unit at present.
Honest question. Have you ever read a book that wasn't published by Games Workshop?
@@scannerbarkly touche
Deus vult
The Templars fucked it in this one bud. Lol
@@scannerbarklyDeus Vult!!
@@scannerbarkly good lord these larpers....
@@scannerbarklypropaganda by King Philip 😂
Glory to Satan!
So what's up with the rest of the world that isn't christian?
Where my hebrews at? I mean is there a jewish faction?
They are mentioned in the lore, but no dedicated faction as of yet.
Is this an A.I. generated game? Looks like one.
Definitely not AI. Mike Franchina is the creator and has be making concept art for the game long before AI art became popular.

As 40k goes woke men will find this
Pretty sure you would consider the people who developed this woke, my dude. You'll need to find a different thing to distract from those things you seem to dislike so much.
We Dont Want You
You will whine with this setting as you whine already about WH40K. And we will use your silly tears to refresh ourselves. Keep whining then.
Christ is King.
Aaah! You tell about woke worshipping in this game's community by legal media representatives of this product.
Yeah, it's hell, but not on Earth - in internet😂.
Cool stuff but it's a dead game now, I'm afraid.
Mate, there are thousands of us in the Discord eager awaiting this thing to hit Kickstarter. Stop listening to crybaby wankers and just enjoy the game.
Keep thinking it is "dead" and leave the setting for us the real based. Sore losers like you are not welcome anyway. 😊
Cool lore thank you for covering it
Pow mind blown 🤯. This is amazing
RED LETTER MEDIA 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Trench Crusade devs decided to be political, so no money for them
Yeah, tell that to the 18 k they got not too long ago
@@TheBenjiNebby hey you want to spend money on some woke DEI ESG shit be my guest, you are fully within your rights to be a moron
@INSANESUICIDE The only one talking about politics is you, so do yourself a favor and stfu, cause you look like a moron yourself, and you're jealous that we're having fun with this setting cause we're not narrow-minded chuds like you.
As long as you enjoy the setting
@@Saruman_Ring-Maker The setting of a post apocalyptic WW1 inspired religious crusade an endless grinding war between religious fanatics and the forces of hell itself? Yeah it is very cool. The devs deciding to go woke and kiss the ring? Not.
