The Cygnar Trenchers Are Set For An Update In Warmachine
June 9, 2017 by brennon
The forces of Cygnar might be getting themselves a few updates from Privateer Press and in particular, the Trenchers that form the solid backbone of their force. Here we have some of the Warmachine concept art that popped up online...
Leading the way we have this stern looking fellow known as Commander Anson Hitch, wearing an exceptionally awesome jacket. He is then matched against a range of troops including the Trencher Commando Officer...
...and the Trencher Journeyman. Each of these new soldiers is looking utterly awesome and decidedly more burly than their previous incarnations.
Some specialists have also been thrown into the mix as you can see here with the Trencher Long Gunner & Officer taking on the enemy at range.
The Trencher Express Team, featuring an epic looking Trollblood here, is also a welcome sight and it's neat to see some of the other races being drawn into the mix for the forces of Cygnar.
You can't go too far wrong with a Trencher Company Dog joining the Trenchers as a bit of an add-on. Of course, they need to bring the pose where the dog is pointing to life.
Last but not least we also have this piece of terrain which was shown off. Here we have the Trencher Blockhouse.
You don't normally see terrain coming to life from Privateer Press but maybe this is going to be the start of something.
Are you going to be checking out these Trenchers when they hit the tabletop in the near future?
Let us know in the comments...
"Leading the way we have this stern looking fellow known as Command Anson Hitch, wearing an exceptionally awesome jacket..."
Some nice concepts there, always loved the trenchers!
The theme list I have been waiting for….
Fortification and trenches – Check
Officer – Check
Commando UA – Check
More of the other races in Cygnar’s army – Check
Awesome Dog – Check
The Trencher Longgunners make me wonder what will ultimately happen to the regular ones. They regular LGs are in the CID so I hope they leave different from their Trencher counterparts.
Oh bought a trench whistle and lanyard, I mean had to…just had to when this dropped.
I went off Warmachine lately, but to be fair this is really cool, even if it is a faction i do not play.
I hope they kinda do similar things to the other factions 🙂
Come to cygnar , we have Trenchers 😀
I really love what they are doing and I hope to see further expansions for theme forces such as the upcoming Trencher theme.
Can’t wait until Siege 2 drops!
This is good.. really good. I am loving what they are doing with the trencher’s theme. The scenery is brilliant too. Honestly you’d have to be wrong in the head to play any other warmachine faction 😉 (other Hordes factions are accepable)
@beardragon14 or a true servant of the greatest leader of mankind in immorian
….. but I am already a true servant of King Justinian greatest leader of mankind on Immorian…….. *slight confusion followed by realisation * … Oh you were talking about that Icy northern strumpet …. *tsks * Yep wrong in the head 😀 😉 😛
Talk like that gets you visits from Zerkov, on that though I need a cool shower, yes I have issues
She can visit me whenever she likes, I am sure I’ll find a way to persuade her to change sides 😉 …. now I need a cold shower
The concept art looks really cool. Hopefully we’ll see some sculpts soon.
if they will be plastic I am all in and ready to get into warmachine. If not I do not care.
Out of curiosity does anyone else think that this my form the basis for a Cygnar theme book?
100% yes a theme book, just want my man’o’war theme
That’d be cool too ,,, I hope they do each of the factions and give them all something special….. A Rhul one for Mercenaries would be good
Need to look on CID honestly not sure how I see more Cynar shooting and more infantry heavy attrition sitting in the game. While I understand keeping a shooty theme I think a few units may skew the game. Still for flavour this idea of themes is a nice direction, do have some concerns that in theme is offering a little too much over power of breaking theme.
@beardragon14 will be pleased to know that for other reason come October I will own some Cygnar, I need a bath, but this is all breeds of cool http://privateerpress.com/community/privateer-insider/insider-6-9-2017
@dags Thanks that looks really nice … (and as I said on a previous post I really don’t mind Khador and if I do another Warmachine faction it will probably be them)
@beardragon14 come to the icy side we have vodka and homicidal maniacs, plus Zvenna and Vlad.
I do think PP do a good job of presenting a range of themes within each faction, I do think the theme forces will help a lot with that. Would be all over Rhul like Krut on a slayer, Gorton is brilliant.
I will confess I do like the idea of a Nemo force, not trencher but that is about the limit of the casters that appeal.
Like this. I don’t Cygnar but themed terrain is very welcome
et tu Brute?
@somegeezer looks like it’s actually a new type of unit, a fortification, advance deploys and can have trench network attached.
the commanders and the bunker look fabulous.
I really like the art style here. I hope they carry it over well.
Love the Trollkin trencher.
Honestly, trenchers are one of those places where other races should be better represented (I’d love to see some Ogrun trenchers as well).
Wow, I have not played Warmachine in awhile but I LOVE what I’m seeing coming out of the new CID program, and I’m highly interested in Company of Iron. A Company of Iron Trencher force that I can mix with a Battlebox to play some Warmachine on the side might be just the ticket…. I hope by beloved Iron Fangs see something similar soon, they are my other favorite military force in Immoren….
