Event Overview
Join Gothic Games Canterbury for a day of grim, atmospheric tabletop gaming in the brutal and unforgiving world of Trench Crusade!
This event is all about narrative gaming, positive player experiences and building a Trench Crusade events community. Rather than focusing on competition and tournament rankings, we want to bring players together to enjoy three engaging games, tell memorable battlefield stories and experience the rich, dark setting of Trench Crusade.
Whether you are an experienced player or completely new to the game, everyone is welcome. Our aim is to create a relaxed, friendly and beginner-friendly environment where players can learn the rules, meet fellow hobbyists and enjoy the narrative possibilities of their warbands.

- Game: Trench Crusade
- Games: 3

The provisional 700 Ducat warband limit and 90-minute games are intended to keep the event accessible, allow everyone to enjoy three games and provide plenty of opportunities for exciting narrative moments on the battlefield.
