[COMMERCIAL] Faceless Publishing Resurrects Trinity: Battleground

[Chief Lackey Rich]

FWIW, my painted Trinity: BG gallery is on my blog over here:

A regrettably incomplete assortment, the more so since I had another dozen or so of the sculpts done at one point but the images have vanished into the void of yesteryear.

It's Miniature Monday once again! Today we reveal Haruhiko, a Psion packing heavy firepower, and talk about the process we use to convert a pewter miniature into a print-ready .STL file.

Hello Chief Lackey Rich! We are familiar with your blog post, as we came across it during our research into Trinity: Battleground. It was actually your photos that alerted us that the Aberrants Keeper, Sanguine, and Luka were produced, as they were listed as only planned on the Unofficial White Wolf Wiki and no images were available on the Lost Minis Wiki. After a lot of hunting, we have managed to acquire these three rare models, and will be bringing them back into production with the rest of the line. Thank you for your unwitting assistance.

It wasn't all that unwitting, we've traded emails in the past.  I've been out of minis gaming for quite a while due to personal issues and was pleasantly surprised to see you're getting close to a retail release on the T:BG figs.

It's true that we exchanged emails later, but it was your images circulating online that told us we had more models to search for, so thank you for that!

And thank you, we are very excited to see the process coming to fruition as well.

Fantastic news. I also bought a copy quite a while ago but some of the figures got lost or broken over the years so I'm looking forward eagerly to replacing them and buying new ones.

Obviously it'll take you a while to get the figures scanned, the files cleaned up and ready to put up for sale so could I be really cheeky and enquire what sort of timescale you're working to, or is it more of a 'they'll be ready when they're ready' sort of thing?

Also, once all the stl files are released, you won't be working on new figures but what if other designers want to produce new figures - Chromatics, other Legionaires, Aberrants or others? Would you have a sort of 'open licence' for derivative Trinity figures?

Sorry if there's a lot there, I am quite looking forward to this!

Unfortunately, this week's Miniature Monday needs to be delayed until next week. Tune in then for more news about Trinity: Battleground!

Hello Rick. Those are all good questions, and we are happy to see more people who are familiar with Trinity: Battleground joining us in our excitement. We are planning to release the game later this year, but do not have a specific timeframe, as there are still a lot of moving parts and we will need to receive approval from Onyx Path Publishing before we launch. To answer your second question, we are resurrecting the game under license and so we are limited to reproducing miniatures and source materials that were already produced. New figures would have to be produced by Onyx Path, or through a separate license. However, if you are interested in seeing more of the Trinity: Battleground universe, make sure to let Onyx Path know!

[Rick]

Okay that does clear a lot of things up for me - wasn't quite sure what sort of licence or ownership deal you were operating under. It'll be interesting to see if Onyx would go for the 'planned but never released' figures as well but we'll just have to see.
I'll be following your progress with a lot of interest while I keep working on the conversions I began before I heard about this!

[Faceless Publishing]

It'll be interesting to see if Onyx would go for the 'planned but never released' figures as well but we'll just have to see.

You would have to ask Onyx Path about that, but unfortunately to our knowledge the planned but never released miniatures were never sculpted. If they were, the originals were lost with the rest of the masters. If new models were to be made, it would have to be from scratch. However, you never know. If the resurrection of Trinity: Battleground goes well enough, maybe Onyx Path will announce some new releases in the future.

After a short delay, we are back with another Miniature Monday! This week, we reveal the Sentry Gun for Trinity: Battleground, and give an overview of how players can create their own custom characters to battle it out on the tabletop!

[Faceless Publishing]

In today's Miniature Monday, we reveal the Psion sharpshooter Nappochelli, as well as sharing the basics of Trinity: Battlegrounds' sample scenarios and giving a little insight into campaign play.

[Faceless Publishing]

In this week's Miniature Monday, we show a work in progress of the mighty Gomorrah, and talk about our plans to include Trinity: Battleground's original terrain in our digital re-release.

[Faceless Publishing]

It's a new week, and time for a new Miniature Monday article. This week, we reveal the fearsome Psion Williams, and discuss a few details about Trinity: Battleground's rules that help make it such a unique game.

[Faceless Publishing]

Another week, another Miniature Monday! Join us as we reveal another miniature from the Trinity: Battleground box set, the arachnoid McGowen!

I don't recall the Gomorrah, though hardly surprising as I didn't get much into different parts.

I do think I would have remembered how much I am reminded of drawings on Larry Niven's Thrintun.

Kewl!

I for one wish to welcome our new telepathic overlords!
