Why do you need bash?

I use this shortcut now (all in one line):
H:\bin\rxvt.exe -geometry 90x30 -bg black -fg grey -cr red -sr 
  -sl 1000 -fn "Lucida Console-14" -tn rxvt -ls -e /usr/bin/tcsh -l

And after clicking it a rxvt window comes up and shows this:

Global csh initialization

My HOME is set systemwide for me, as Corinna said to do it.
My startupfile is ~/.tcshrc
It includes the one line you used as demo:
echo "Global csh initialization"
