Sonstiges Trench Crusade [Skirmish Wargame von Mike Franchina & Tuomas Pirinen]

Musste es einfach mal googeln, was es mit den Engeln auf sich hat.

We remained cowering in a trench when the trumpet sounded in the oppressive, lead-lined sky. We furtively glanced out of the corners of our eyes, having learned long ago not to look at such things directly. We saw it all the same. The angel stepped down from the sky in a burning catastrophe of light, and it spoke words like thunder.

The words were vast and inscrutable, like glimpsing only a fragment of some titanic buried machine and trying to understand its ancient purpose. Our minds broke upon the surface of those words, leaving us gasping for air, we could not endure such relentless purity.

I stared dumbfounded at my friends who had cast themselves into the mud. They crawled like worms, and they uttered the most desolate sounds. One beat his face against a wooden post until it was a slick, red cavity bristling with broken teeth. The other, shrieking, clutched his service pistol and shot himself again and again.

I pulled myself out of the trench, scrabbling over the sandbags and crosses, and the words of the angel filled my head with a buzzing pressure that made my eyes bulge from their sockets. I fell to my knees, made obeisance, and as I stared into the blazing, dominating light, I could not even feel my head catch fire.
Also das is mal ein Auftritt..
 
Es gibt keine Engel im Spiel, weil diese zu stark wären (noch viel heftiger als ein Paladin), auf der Skirmish Ebene betrachtet. Engel sind vom Hintergrund ein ganz anderes Level, mit 40k Vergleichbar einen Warlord Titan gegen ein Kill Team antreten zu lassen.

Eigentlich schade ... es gibt kaum Tabletops mit (biblischen) Engeln...
