Trench Crusade leagues

Trench Crusade is a skirmish game of small warbands fighting through an alternate-history Great War between Heaven and Hell. Its rules and warband lists are free from the publisher. A league here plays one-off games, each player reporting a victory point total.

Reporting a game

Each player reports one VP total, from 0 to 50. The higher total wins and equal totals draw.

What a result is worth

A league starts on this format, and its organizer can change any number in it later.

Win / draw / loss
  • The player with more VP wins; equal VP is a draw.
  • Win 3 · Draw 1 · Loss 0 league points.
  • Ties are broken by VP differential, then head-to-head.

Your warband

Each player keeps their warband on their loadout — pasted in, the way your list builder exports it. Nothing checks or adds up a list; it's there so your opponent and your organizer can read what you're bringing.

Beside it: its size (Ducats), a link to it.

Running a campaign? Settings offers Glory Points and Ducats, with a note for injuries & scars as a starting point, kept per player on their loadout.
