Sgt. John Bruce Peace, Company A, 49th Kentucky Mounted Infantry, from Whitley County, Kentucky. My great-great-great grandfather.
Old worn military portrait of a young man staring straight at the camera with neat reddish hair and chin beard, wearing a blue high-collar uniform with gold piping and buttons. His left hand is held over his chest.

So this weekend I'm playing in the first Trench Crusade event at the largest wargames tournament in the state. Organizers decided to go with a short campaign rather than a tournament format (which I love) and my ghosts are kicking absolute ass. Currently 2-0-1 and tied for first in VP
Two heretic trooper models in white uniforms taking cover in a destroyed building. One is holding a machine gun and the other is firing a pistol while holding an axe. A Shrine Anchorite has knocked down an Anointed in white armor holding a great axe. To the side, a heretic trooper with a shotgun and shield stands on objective in a ruined building A heretic priest in white robes on a tank palanquin furnished with trophies taken in battle approaches a massive concrete cross in the middle of a ruined hamlet caught between two trench lines. He's flanked on either side by heretic troopers with rifles Two heretic troopers and an anointed approach the ruined hamlet to get on objective

You project your violent snuff fantasies onto normal not-violent people who happen to be religious as a proxy for the anger you feel towards mother figures in your life

Finally worked up the motivation to get back to painting my stosstruppen warband for Trench Crusade. Decided to go big and get my lieutenant knocked out.

Meet Herr Hauptmann Hans Freiherr von Meusebach of the 48th Gardekorps of Brandeburg, and his best bro Abu Nasiri (Moussa to his friends)
Two models for trench crusade. On the left is a Prussian lieutenant bear cap style helmet kitbashed on a red brigade Scottish lieutenant body, holding a greatsword in one hand and a submachine gun slung over the other shoulder. He's painted with bare metal armor, a yellow uniform blouse underneath, black shoulder pauldrons, and a red scarf. On the right is a mameluk model with a duelling roundshield in his left hand and a large shamshir sword held in his right hand resting on his shoulder. His armor is a faded gold with a conical helmet and chain mail covering his face. On his back is slung a jezzail.

Oh so you mean like a heretic clerical faction? The warband leaders for the Heretic Legions is pretty close to what you're thinking of, I think, but a whole faction of that aesthetic would be sick

I just realized I never posted my Observer for my Prussian warband. Easily one of my favorite sculpts in the game.

#trenchcrusade
Official Observer model for Trench Crusade, painted in tarnished gold armor, holding a spear, with a red tilt shield and barbed wire around its feet in the mud. Same observer model from the side, showing off the cape painted in black and yellow with a red arrowhead in the center

I have quickly developed a strong emotional attachment to this model which I have not had with other models I've painted
Miniature model, fish with uncomfortably human legs, painted dark blue with light blue fins, gills, and eyes Same model, picture taken from back to showcase it's uncomfortably human ass

Every time @allieinchains.bsky.social releases something new I'm reminded all over again why I love metal and what the genre can be in the hands of someone who cares so much.

This quote is evergreen and applies to all kinds of bigots.
Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past. Jean-Paul Sartre

Why didn't she just find non-nazi or anti-nazi black metal? Why did she dismiss the genre outright? Here's two I have in my regular rotation right now

This is all I've seen mentioned about Pagans. This is from the lore doc on the Northern Hellmouth
At such times those men of the North that have fallen to darkness gather under the banners of Hell and muster at the Gate. Combined warbands strike out and foe fires light the night sky of the North. The light of the Redeemer never shone as bright here, and many people still cling to their old ways and old gods. It is a bitter twist of irony that not all who fight for the Lords of Inferno see themselves as servants of evil. The devils know how to appear beautiful and noble in the eyes of their followers to deceive the humans. Many believe they are fighting for real gods to drive away the invaders.

Went to a Trench Crusade narrative campaign in Dallas this weekend. Had a blast, went 4-2, and got a shovel.

Also trench ghosts still got the juice.

#trenchcrusade
Trench Crusade game, a pack of heretic models painted white in a trench surrounded by teal-colored New Antioch models Same scene but from different angle, where heretic priest model on a tank palanquin can be seen approaching up the board An actual folding shovel with the spade painted with fake blood, and the words "Most Wanted, HvH 2025" carved into the face A wanted poster depicting a heretic priest with fangs surrounded by fire. The name reads "King Konrad". Under crimes it reads "hot wheels lookin ass, insane murder, being expensive". Under "ducats" it shows 175 crossed out, 350 crossed out, then 925 not crossed out.
