Trench Crusade: Carcass Front - A New Chapter Begins

Archon Studio have just opened pre-orders for Carcass Front - a new chapter in the grimdark, alternate-history Trench Crusade miniatures game, designed by Mike Franchina and Tuomas Pireinen.

Trench Crusade diverges from our real history all the way back in the 11th century after the First Crusades successfully captured Jerusalem. A victory that then saw some members of the Knights Templar open a literal gateway to Hell, destroying the city, and seeing the forces of Hell conquer most of the Levant. Fast forward 800 years, to 1914, and the forces of Hell have conquered one-third of humanity.

The armies are at a stalemate, with both sides now engaged in trench warfare, with the area caught between the forces of Heaven and Hell a no-mans land in which small warbands, from both sides, conduct a range of missions - from finding artifacts and relics, assassinating high value targets, gathering intelligence, or capturing prisoners.

Carcass Front is a new narrative campaign set for the skirmish game that includes 16 miniatures across two opposing warbands (Procession of the Sacred Affliction and Heretic Naval Raiders), scenarios and two campaigns. The box will also include a selection of terrain pieces, dice, rulers, and a set of introductory rules for Trench Crusade.

Each model includes up to two asembly options, giving you the freedom to follow the included builds or customize your fighters with different weapons, equipment, and head swaps to make the Warband your own.

“The ever-restless armies of Hell stir once more in the benighted lands beyond New Antioch known as the Carcass Front. Everywhere signs show the return of Leviathan is nigh. Warbands of the Faithful and Fallen gather to fulfill the Prophecy of Leviathan in the hope of mankind’s salvation, or to complete its damnation.”

Trench Crusade: Carcass Front is due for release towards the end of July. Pre-orders are currently being taken on Archon Studios webstore.
