Trench Crusade has proven wildly successful. The World War One with demons skirmish game made over $3.3 million during a two week Kickstarter campaign with no advertising whatsoever. The art is stunning, the worldbuilding compelling, the miniatures look fantastic and the rules intriguing. Influencers are going mad for it. An interview with the creators even graced the digital pages of this very webbed site. This success is built on an already flourishing grassroots community, which suggests that Trench Crusade won’t just prove flavour of the month before sinking into obscurity. It’s a big deal, and everyone is talking about it.

So, can we please stop mentioning it in the same breath as Games bloody Workshop?
