History of the Death Korps of Krieg I 40k Lore

[@Scholarslore]

Maybe sequel to come (I'm bad at promising sequels), but there are good Krieg stories to be told about the siege of Vraks, and some other conflicts, so stay tuned for some more gas-masked weirdos

[@Overworkedandunderpaid]

Perhaps the Elysian shock troops next?

[@bar_jumper1312]

very impressiv use of Ai, i love the vids but my men, there was not 1 word in here that explained the "Clone Army of Krieg" ... at the end of the war every Soldier on Krieg is a gen clone of Jurten i find this is somewhat important why did you left it out ?

[@LoreFriendlyMusic]

Dunno if it's your voice or an AI, but nice voice! Heard 2 seconds and subbed! This is bedtime stories for men!

[@imperialinquisitor510]

*Happy gasmask noises!*

[@TheHaughtyOsprey]

Ya know, no matter how many times Ive heard the story of Krieg nuking itself into a hellscape of ash and craters, I listen to every new video on it.

[@LMR041082]

I think I do the same. The lore of 40K has that effect on me as well.

Kriegers and black templars are my favorite thing about 40k

[@bkane573]

[@marsfreelander5969]

It's a simple story and we can all not only understand but relate to

[@zazzyboy8592]

I never played Warhammer 40k and don’t intend to but the lore is so interesting

[@Scholarslore]

It's fantastic lore, I haven't played the table top game for maybe 10 years now, but the stories are too good to pass up imo

[@Arkens]

Same here. I was thinking about getting into the game itself, but it's not for me financially. But I love the lore and the whole setting, so I use books, video games and YT videos to scratch that WH40k itch

If you remove the gasmask from a krieg's head do you find a human face or just another gasmask?

[@franz643]

A mix of both

[@ratleader90]

A gasface

A fist.

[@cc_rex5017]

Yes

Physically incapable of not clicking on a Krieg lore vid.

You are totally physically capable of not clicking. What you mean to say is that you can't resist.

[@trevordenver9877]

I liked that you used pictures from metro 2033 when speaking about the aftermath of the nuclear bomb, it was the first thing that came to my mind haha

[@Scholarslore]

Same here, when I was thinking of "what's a good post apocalyptic underground society" then obviously Metro was the first thing which came to me. I think it matches the aesthetic of the legion before they switched over the heavy greatcoats and sleeker gas masks

[@trevordenver9877]

@@Scholarslore it definately does, now I want to hear an Artyom Krieger XD

[@HeliophobicRiverman]

I had my basic training in a battalion commanded by a Lieutenant Colonel Jurt. Not quite Krieg, but we did wear gasmasks a lot.

[@ancientmariner9460]

Thank you, brother, for yet another outstanding piece of work.

[@Scholarslore]

Thank you very much, appreciate it

[@dfailsthemost]

The tithe probably helps Krieg as much as the Guard. Fewer mouths to feed on Krieg.

[@BernddasBrotB7]

Heh, 23:15 has art from the 82nd Dread Korps regiment/clan from Foxhole, you can see the Wardens insignia on his shoulder. Obviously based on the Death Korps, but funny to see them here! Great video as always!

[@Scholarslore]

Oh whoops, didn't know that! I just assumed it was more death korps art!

[@GreatAukEntertainment]

A video on the korps?! Oh how you spoil us! Hope we can see more videos on the variety of guard regiments!

[@Scholarslore]

Thank you! More guard stuff to come!

[@sargentriley5091]

Keieg! Krieg!! Krieg!! The narrators voice is absolutely chilling and perfect for listening to for 40k lore I love it!!

[@watcherinshadow8584]

Between you weshammer and luten i have found what i am calling the holy Trinity of Warhammer 40k loretubers. Keep up the great work. Also don't know if you have done it yet or not but would love a lote video on the Soul Drinkers. They are the chapter that got me into 40k stories/lore. Them and the space wolves

Quite positively, the best narration Ive heard so far!

[@noure8117]

Hello Sir, can you please make the second part of Damnos? Love your work and datication!

[@Scholarslore]

Hello! Yes I certainly will, I'm almost caught up on my necron backlog, but it's certainly in my mind to work on that one. I'm finishing up a new script atm, but perhaps next week I'll find some time to start work on Damnos 2 Thank you as well!

[@Astrosk1er]

23:16 82DK! Man now it makes sense why there’s so much 40k culture in the wardens. (For anyone confused this is fan art for a regiment in the game Foxhole called the 82nd Death Korps which are based on the 40k Death Korps I presume)

[@njkf]

[@jestinjeffries9430]

Thanks for another great video. Could your next Regiment video be on the Tanith First and Only. They have a lot of material to work with, and Gaunt is a great character for a stand alone video by himself in my opinion. But together him and the Tanith survivors are a interesting group worth educating others on and would love to see it in your style especially. Thanks for your hard work, As always I look forward to your next video

[@Scholarslore]

I did have a little plan written out for them, but it's a bit of a weird one where I'd have to leave out huge chunks of their story, just because there are so many books about them. I would probably have to leave it as another origin story type video, which is fine, but I wouldn't want people to be disappointed if they were expecting a synopsis of all of the novels. Once I'm ready I'll tackle them head on though. I'd probably like to focus on the Tallarn Desert raiders next for IG regiments, but the Tanith are certainly on my mind. And thank you as well, I appreciate the kind words

[@jestinjeffries9430]

@@Scholarslore I fully understand, there is so much lore and books to cover it would be a hard video to make. Trying to figure out what to include and what to leave out would be a huge undertaking, but I have faith in you. From what I have seen so far I do believe that you are up to the huge task of covering them. I appreciate all your hard work you put into these videos

[@Fortunes.Fool.]

Hell yes, I'm building my Krieg army while listening

[@Scholarslore]

Nice! They're such good models, especially the old FW sculpts, some of the best IG units imo

[@designationc6042]

I held the dying Kriegsman as he bled from the brutal wounds sustained by the org hordes. Even mortally wounded he continued to hold himself together. To try and help him I reached to remove his gas mask so he could breathe better but he gently grabbed my arm and gently shook his head. I understood and didn’t try, I spoke to him. “You fought well brother in arms, may the emperor deliver you to a glorious afterlife”. The kriegsman laid his head back and passed as I listened to his breathing stop. I gently layed him down and put his trench tool on his chest and wrapped his arms around it. “Only in death does duty end”

[@rafael357]

Can't even find the words to describe how great this is.

[@wulfgardtt6483]

Would love to see more on different regiments,great job as always.

[@bkane573]

There is only an other regiment worth mentioning, and that is the jungle fighters. Everyone else is a joke.

[@Scholarslore]

I'll be covering a few more of them in the future, not sure of the order but I'll at least get the Tallarn, Valhallan, and Mordian. I might also cover a bunch of smaller regiments in a compilation video, where I'll show maybe 4 or 5 slightly smaller, or more obscure regiments for 5 minutes each, could be fun. Thank you as well.

[@arancar101]

It's wild to think of the lives during the 10 years on the ships. Do they go into stasis or go about their daily routines?

[@Wustenfuchs109]

Ships are huge, usually the size of a city. So it would be like living 10 years in a city and never leaving it. It is not the best life, but it isn't really that out of the question. But, here's the deal - ships of the Imperium, especially larger ones, have their decks segregated and people in them basically enslaved for generations, doing the same work. For example, you have the broadside guns. The whole deck servicing them will be under one group of people, who can't move outside of their areas of the ship, and they are generationally tied to those guns. People born there stay there and do the job their father did, and their grandfather before them. It creates a highly specialized workforce to be honest, people who know every single thing to be known about that segment of the ship and how it works. And it is very much needed because there are almost never two ships that are absolutely identical in how they run. To answer your question, no, they are not in stasis, they go about their daily routines. The ships are huge, but within them ordinary people are confined to segments of it (still huge, like a smaller city), with only the specialized crew members being able to traverse the entire ship. But, ships so large, it is quite common that even the ship's captain has not visited the entire ship during his entire life.

[@michaelrivera6220]

It's funny that the people in charge of kireg overreacted and thought they were gonna lose power, but if they had just kepts giving the Imperium its tithes then the Imperium wouldn't have given a rat ass about how they run the planet as long as the tithes were paid.😂

[@jessl1934]

A appreciate this channel but there's always some really clunky words thrown in the script. In this video "amicable" isn't correct and the script writer was probably reaching for "amenable". "Bucolic" is almost certainly incorrect unless there are rolling, grassy hills somewhere inside of a hiveworld. I find these awkward overreaches in vocabulary always drag my experience of the video down.
