The Chronicles of the Union
When the old world rotted beneath the weight of aristocratic decay, the Union rose in fire and faith. From blood-soaked fields and broken thrones emerged warriors sanctified by revolution, their spirits tempered as steel in the forge of suffering. Now they march not for crown nor coin, but as vessels of holy wrath — a brotherhood sworn to stand against the abyss itself. Each name in these chronicles is etched in sacrifice, each warrior a living hymn sung in defiance of Hell.
What Is This Project?
A proxy-friendly set of physical and digital miniatures, designed for 28mm grimdark tabletop wargames.
Inspired by:
-
The brutal aesthetic of Trench Crusade
-
Soviet iconography and religious imagery
-
Russian folklore and myth
-
The militant mysticism of factions like New Antioch
Our models are crafted to match the style and scale of existing grimdark universes — from trench-ridden no-man’s lands to altar-scarred battlefields.
What's Included
-
STL files for 3D printing (pre-supported and unsupported)
-
Resin-cast physical miniatures (limited tiers)
-
Modular parts for conversions
-
Lore book PDF with art and faction rules (optional add-on)
about the project
base set
*Promo model
Once rebels who cast down the rotten aristocracy, now they stand as the Union’s crimson shield. Veterans tempered by fire and famine, they march in unbroken ranks, holding the line against the endless legions of the Pit.
Red Druzhina
Pre-assembled models
Red Druzhina
His voice is scripture, his breath a curse upon the damned. Avvakum strides the battlefield with sacred tomes and relentless prayers, and the spawn of Hell quail before the weight of his faith.
*Concept
Schemonk Avvakum
Forged in the flames of holy revolution, their flesh is clad in relic armor and their hands grip consecrated steel. Each warrior is a hymn of faith made flesh — soldier, saint, and executioner of heresy alike.
Holy Steel Battalion
Pre-assembled models
Holy Steel Battalion
*Concept
Behind the veil of a sanctified mask, Pachomy leads with iron resolve. His command spares no mercy for the foe, and his devotion shields the souls of his men as surely as his tactics guard their lives.
Ltn. Pachomy Zhukov
*Concept
Wrapped in monastic robes, their consecrated rifles whisper death across horizons. At distances deemed impossible, they strike down warlords of the abyss and scatter legions with thunder that echoes like church bells.
Voroshilov Brothers the Sniper Twins
Beneath bloodstained robes, she wields scalpel and scripture alike. With ruthless mercy, Ada cuts away the corruption of Hell, severing flesh to save the soul and returning warriors to the fray reborn.
*Concept
Ada the Sawbones
Clad in titanic armor anointed with sacred oils, the Bogatyrs advance like living citadels. With blessed blades raised high, they hold fast against the black tide, their faith a wall no demon horde can breach.
*Concept
Heavy Bogatyr Squad
