The first retail edition of the Trench Crusade tabletop game rulebook will only appear in stores on November 30, 2026, but until September 7, you can pre-order it for 54.99 euros (5253 rubles).
This 320-page hardcover book contains expanded lore that delves deeper than ever before into the world and factions of Trench Crusade. It features dozens of new illustrations, including over twenty full-page or double-page spreads from the most talented artists in wargaming, as well as new cover art by Thomas Elliott.
In addition, inside there is a brand new miniatures section with model photos and step-by-step painting guides from professionals. The book also updates the Trench Crusade rules to version 1.1.
This version of the rules has been updated based on feedback from players around the world and includes all previous errata, clarifications, updates, and annual reviews. This includes all elements from the April review.
Digital rules will be updated to version 1.1 this November and, as always, will remain available on the Trench Crusade website for free. Among other things, in October, the developers will release a series of articles explaining the various changes in rules 1.1 and what they bring to the game.
After September 7, the rulebook will only be available for purchase after release and while supplies last. This is because Factory Fortress is experiencing its first time printing books for retail and does not know how many units to order.
Since book production and logistics take much longer, the team wants to ensure they order enough while avoiding overstock. If supplies run out, Factory Fortress will, of course, order more, but it will take time for a new batch to arrive.
Pre-order shipments are expected to begin on November 20, 2026.
