During the first Crusade a heretical band of Templars dared defy the Allmighty. Casting aside their sacred vows they opened a gate to hell in the heart of Jerusalem. Out poured the legions of the damned and the world burned. It is now the year of our lord 1914 and the war rages on. This is the world of trench crusade, a skirmish wargame set in an alternate reality created by the artist by artist Mike Franchina (Diablo 2r/3/4, Path of Exile 2, Magic: The Gathering) with rules by acclaimed game designer Tuomas Pirinen (Mordheim, Warhammer 6th edition) and brought to life by James Sherriff (28 mag, Ian Miller's Grim Tarock).

Come learn about the game, the setting, the rules and take one of the demo warbands for a spin in one of the scenic tables that will bring the setting to life. No previous wargaming knowledge is required, we'll provide you with all you need.

And if you are already well versed in the setting and have your own beautifullly painted warband at home, worry not. Bring it to play at our freeplay tables and meet people interested in the game with whom to embark in glorious campaigns.

A typical game lasts between 45 and 90 minutes.
