Does anyone remember Trinity: Battleground? It was a 28mm scale Sci-Fi wargame released back in 1997/1998 by White Wolf Publishing and whilst it basically dropped off the radar since its initial release, Faceless Publishing are bringing it back! It has been given new life by the Wargames Ressurectionist project.

Brought back after more than a quarter of a century in obscurity, Trinity: Battleground is back in the world thanks to Faceless Publishing and a licence with Onyx Path Publishing. The rules are back in PDF form, featuring all of the original game material and miniatures (more on that soon!). They have tried to recreate the game as it would have been at the time of its original release.

When you dive into Trinity: Battleground, you take control of either small forces of the Aberrants or the Psions, battling it out during various scenarios on the tabletop. It was also based on the Trinity Roleplaying game, also by White Wolf and now Oynx Path Publishing. This meant that you could dive into character creation and make some fascinating, custom units for loads of gameplay potential on the tabletop.

If you grab the above Rulebook bundle, you'll get the rules, unit sheets for the Aberrants and Psios, printable terrain, templates for adding hills, plus all of the other game components like cards, rules, blast templates and tokens. A great print-and-play set for someone who missed out on this.

Trinity: Battleground Starter Set

If you wanted to go even deeper into Trinity: Battleground, you can take the print-and-play another step forward with a Starter Set that contains all of the above PLUS miniatures.

This set contains 3D scans of the original Trinity: Battleground miniatures, sculpted for the game by the legendary Bob Naismith. You'll get miniatures for...

• Aberrants -  Caul Fein, Fhata Khan, Gomorrah, Nazul, Krikquill Support
• Psions - Batya, Cameron, Jameson, Somers, McGowen, Williams, Support Squad Avenger

From there, you'll be able to dive into gameplay that you either remember fondly or is an entirely new experience for you!

"The late 20th century witnessed the terrifying birth of the Aberrants. These mutant humans possessed terrible psionic powers and caused unmatched devastation across the globe before finally being banished to the depths of space. Now, in 2120, they have returned in new and twisted forms to take revenge on Earth and her nascent space colonies. However, humanity is not defenceless! Psions, disciplined and courageous heroes endowed with their own psychic powers, stand as mankind's last line of defence. Choose your side as the monstrous Aberrants or heroic Psions and join the war to determine humanity's future!"

As well as offering up the Rulebook and the Starter Set, Faceless Publishing has also added a bunch of miniatures to their webstore for you to download and print to your heart's content.

There are six pages of miniatures for you to choose from, expanding the options for Trinity: Battleground beyond what you got in the starter set. I love that, much like Restoration Games and the likes of Seb Games, we're seeing people taking the time to use new technology to bring back classic miniatures and games that would otherwise fade away into obscurity.

I must admit that I'd never heard of Trinity: Battleground but it's awesome to see that it has returned thanks to Faceless Publishing and the Wargame Resurrectionist program. You can keep up to date with what they are up to over on Facebook as well as their website. For example, the next project for them sees them working alongside Red Shirt Games to bring back the Goth Rats miniatures originally released by DemonBlade Games!
