This week’s lore covers the Lazarist Prophets, the Procession of the Sacred Affliction’s most fervent leaders. They welcome even the most wretched sinners into their ranks, guiding them along the path to redemption with the cleansing weight of the millstone. www.trenchcrusade.com/lore/lazaris...

Lazarist Prophets - Trench Crusade

A Lazarist Prophet is as much a leader in pastoral love as they are in war. They are the first kind face, smiling through mucus-laden bandages, to welcome aspirants down the path of redemption.

++ ALL OUT WAR: MULTIPLAYER RULES ++ We've just released the rules for All Out War which allows you to play Trench Crusade with 3 or more players! You can check out the introduction article using the link below, written by none other than Jervis Johnson: www.trenchcrusade.com/trench-wire/...

John is over the moon with the love the community is showing him. This is after all a completely new world we have been creating, and even an artist of his pedigree still gets the jitters about how it will be received. We beat the goal by 15X, so I would say "Quite well, actually."
