The delivery of “Some… might even be the target…” makes me want to hear ScannerBarkly deliver the “Some might consider… Unnatural.” Line from Star Wars.
Lol every time one of these vids drops I'm like "that's probably the darkest thing in the game" then you drop another, goddamn this is such a kl setting, love the vids mate, keep up the good work
question is, since the original victim is promised good standing in hell during the torture, do the lesser forces of hell actually look upon the Warlocks with reverence and respect, or do they simply treat them like dogs to be sicked on the enemy or simply as a tactical asset to be used and spent?
Goddamn, this shit has no business going that hard. Your matter-in-fact tone paired with the truly appaling nature of what you're describing, is a potent cocktail 😂
First they will destroy your body, then they will break your spirit, and finally, they will reach into your soul, you will break, i will break, everybody, will break, one day, but not today...
If all goes well and they game is successful, allowing them to renumerate the authors, I know for a fact the devs are very interested in doing some novels in the universe.
@zhuyu9268 there are some really silly parts but over all I love wh40k... but this looks like they took what I love about 40k and condensed it. The echlisiarchy and the church as well as the sisters of battle and the adeptus mechanicus the death korps of kreig and the orks and all the mechs and titans are all so so rad in 40k. It has probably the most in-depth lore of any fictional universe that I have seen where death matters, unlike in American comic books. Not to mention you can tell there have been alot of people from the military and people familiar with history contributing to the lore due to battles and reasonings making sense as well as accurately echoing history. Like there are some cringe parts but its also a gigantic universe where you could get along just fine without aknowledging what you dislike in the setting. What makes it cringe to you?
@@zhuyu9268 nah, nothing you can say will take it away from me. Most people aren't that soft to let a youtube comment stop them from doing what they like to do. Sounds almost like you probably jist aren't familiar with wh40k. Probably best to base opinions on experiences
Pretty sure this is just part of the regular Heretic Legions and not a Court member, although they might still have access to these troops Also, Court reveals only happen on Wednesday
One of the things that I got out of this game is that you have to choose damnation of your own freewill. If you are under magic-powered ultra-torture that would be a violation of freewill I would think. IIRC near the beginning of the hell mouth some proselytizers from Christendom went into the Levant and now they are perpetually roasting in some brazen bulls. I would imaging centuries of roasting would probably make them want to switch sides if that was a possibility. While I do like myself some grim-dark I think it is a bit too soon for them to get inconsistent unless I misunderstand the fluff.
"those that smile at their misfortune and have no love save for the damned" Id rather not the brazen bowl, meybe its more like fking the time line yet human all to human leads us towards certain far casting convergences Eh the philosophy of time travel Ya see there is the tangent universe 🤔 to your question - psychosis can do it temporarily, seether just released a song Judas Mind God feels all the pain understands all the pain - without all the miracles we would all be fallen... To choose it hmm? Well its possible they foreseen otherwise the possibility of a different worse self Like if born with money or beauty maybe they just fall like Fulgrim But if its all a life long ironic struggle, can use some of their spells Wondering if "this" is Frank the Rabbit i keep seeing in the mirror Smiling back looking at me (Whats your favorite idea Mines being creative... Listen to your heart, listen to your pain, listen to the voices (choices) in your brain... Lets get creative...) Figure in black which points at me Oh God no please God help me
@@fluxtheory3136 What mortal can withstand that kind of tribulation? I watched that video and I don't really think anyone could handle it. The only physical that could handled that would be Christ or in game setting the Meta-Christs though with assistance. Another of the things I liked about this setting was the foot soldiers of the fallen. They were taken from the inhabitants of the Levant. They were pagan no doubt but they had to willfully seek irrevocable damnation. Taking away willful submission to damnation detracts from the setting of this game or in reality freewill.
Well, they can want to switch sides but Hell doesn't need to make the deal. If Satan decides "fuck you, you ain't on my team, but I am definitley not gonna let you die." then you are just fucked. He could also let you onto Team Hell and just keep roasting you anyway. Dude doesn't have to play fair, he's Satan. lol
@@scannerbarkly Still think that ultra-torture is a shit plot device. Making an inverse unit should take more work. It should not just be find Nth amount of faith, hurt it to X, and make new unit. Especially given all other units had to willfully give themselves to damnation. If some unit can fold space/time for reasons then it should be pretty rare in points and fluff. BTW I do dig the left hand hunters.
I feel like the Flesh Shaper could be a cool unit for the Court, I mean, it's more or less made up of Hell's elite so having the guys directly above and responsible for such horrid warbeasts like the Warlock as assistants would check out, me thinks
Is there any part of this world that is still normal? like a place with sun and parks and trees. Maybe some squirrels and chipmunks? I'm being serious here. What do people eat? Where are the farms? Cows, chickens, and pigs. I know these are off the wall questions but it makes you wonder.
Oh yeah, massive parts of the world are fine, the majority of the fighting and the all that has occurred in and around the Levant, snuck up into southern Europe from time to time, down into Africa from time to time, etc.
Tbh it sounds like God turned his back on these poor condemned souls. What a horrid fate. Are they really wrong to curse the Almighty after experiencing suffering literally beyond mortal comprehension?
Thats what I was thinking when learning about the lore. Something weird is going on with God and Heaven in this world and I really hope we get a reason why there is such an absence of God in Trench Crusade
@@caleabbott3311 it's definitely going to be cool to see when they flesh out the meta Christ lore. To me it seems like there is plenty of connections to God in the lore because of the way the church can commune with dead saints and stuff like that.
I am sensing something inspired by the Cathar doctrine in this setting. Explaining: the "God" that the "forces of light" serve is not THE real God but the Demiurge Yaldabaoth, the cosmic tyrant that imprisons our reality and the one "God" found in the Old Testament. (AGAIN: All of that based in the Cathar doctrine - which is heretic by the way) Think about it. For instance, an Angel already appeared in the lore during a battle between Hell and "Heaven" armies and its mere presence ANNIHILATED both! Why would an Angel annihilate the armies allegedly faithful to God? Think about it...
Very cool mr.satan unfortunately your skeleton toy is getting bayonet charged into oblivion
New Antioch don't stop the walk for some dummy skeleton.
You first... Right behind ya
Wait! -ties up explosive barrel- okay now go!

I'll sneak it into a future script like a little easter egg. lol
Id survive that
Behold, an Azeb!
"I can fix her"
Nah, I'd win.
sounds like if anyone is to take on, and actually defeat such a being, will be hailed a hero
People actually need to play this game first
8:18 I’m imagining the warlock being like “Oh yeah, you can make it hurt waaaaay worse if you do this.”
"Endless verses from the demonic texts that the Princes of Hell themselves have authored" - getting strong Vogon poetry vibes here :o)
I was thinking the same. As well as fanfics and young adult fiction.
Probably be pretty interesting to read. Like somewhere between Shakespeare and death metal lyrics
Finally, these guys will reveal Gorgoroth's lyrics for us! HELL YEAH! 😂

Probably just fear. These guys feel like the school shooters of hell.
@@scannerbarklyLmfao
@@scannerbarkly seems more for the players to decide.
To demons they might not see a difference between fear and respect
I don’t even know how I stumbled into the world of “Trench Crusade”, but it is quickly becoming my new obsession.
I saw it from a comment from a "two types of alternate history" sketch video.
same, just found a short today about the anti tank sniper and was oh whats this and now I've been listening to the lore all day
Goddamn, this shit has no business going that hard. Your matter-in-fact tone paired with the truly appaling nature of what you're describing, is a potent cocktail 😂

I wish there will be novels about this world.
If all goes well and they game is successful, allowing them to renumerate the authors, I know for a fact the devs are very interested in doing some novels in the universe.
A first person account of a war medic being captured, tortured for half a year, and made into one of these living war liches would be so awesome.
This could make for a lot of great games and books and if Hollywood weren't a bunch of pansies, maybe some good TV and movies.
Skeletor is strong, but Skeletor the magic skeleton of Satan is also in the effective range of 50mm Field Guns
More like 150mm
This is approaching the level of cool that is beyond anything that james workshop has created.
Warhammer is cringe af this looks really, really cool though

Man, new Antioch really drew the short end of the stick here
Suddenly reminded of the suits in new vegas with the skeletons
Picture looked like a more messed up Chaos Astartes
Holy hell, their creation is dark.
I thought some of the factions were pretty cool but the 7 Headed Serpent stuff looks VERY cool

Please put the trench crusade playlist on order
Bro you should do a compilation video of all the Trench Crusade Lore vids, going from factions to event to individual units
I'm actually working on a super long video doing just that at the moment. Hopefully folks dig it!
@@scannerbarkly I am confident that many people will like it, painting and leaving it in the backround to listen to it
Great video. Love that you saw the lore and model and said ...fine I'll do it my self. Keep up the good work.

I love that channel but I think you benefit from some editing to cut down on the mouth sounds and pauses. A few takes on different parts would help.
All hail to thy the Demons said onto the lamb of god

The Goetic Warlock is pretty old, tbh. Well, in the grand scheme of things.
So these are like the equivalent to possessed marines?
