It’s more of the scarred face and sad eyes of a war torn child because the average age of Krieg guardsmen is 15. They’re children some of the most badass children but still children. I think The Emperor would say something along the lines of :you can rest now young one you’ve fought hard far harder than someone you’re age should ever have to. Krieg guardsmen: But what about the debt I still have to repay you my tainted linage. Emperor: Child there’s no debt to be repaid here. No child should have to be punished for the sins of those came before them. *embraces the child as the guardsmen lets lose a few tears* it is okay young one you can rest now as you now join the rest of your fallen brothers and sisters.

@@Author_Paluthor A common mistake is to think that the Death Korps of Krieg are more elite forces than the regular Imperial Guard soldier although in fact they do not have as good training as for example Cadian Shock Trooper. What they do have that sets them apart from any other common Guardsman is their quasi-suicidal fervor and the fact that the only way to make a withdrawal is because they killed almost 99% of their forces. The DCK are cannon fodder, not elite troops, they are the best cannon fodder in the entire Imperium, though. Their tactics favor this as they specialize in a 1WW fighting style, attacks and massive artillery bombardments followed by massive infantry charges all to beat the enemy in a war of attrition. So in summary, a common Guardsman could beat a Krieg in combat but the match would not end until the Krieg was completely dead on the ground.

Their ancestors are the ones that stayed loyal and resisted the traitors for generation after generation, but they still think they have to atone for something. I just think a few too many people think Kreig guardsmen are awesome without appreciating just how sad and wrong they are. They deserve to be just as proud of themselves as Cadians.

Krieg. The world of greater devotion than the Adepta Sororitas, of more will than the Imperial Fists. Where logistics rule the warline, where a soldier will sacrifice his life simply to throw equipment that is marginally more valuable, where every life is utterly, absolutely dedicated to the singular goal of war, to act as a production system to serve the Emperor. Greater guilt than the Dark Ravens, but rather than cover it and bleed those that find it, they bleed themselves. They are fuel, tools, a log thrown into an engine. They think nothing but how best to further the Imperium. Not a soul corrupted, not one man's intent changed. Only pure faith and fire and steel and, of course, war. This is not the men and women who bravely charge despite their fears of Cadia, where nobility means nothing, here all that matters is how much you can sacrifice. It is the embodiment of the phrase only war. It is a world that is expressed entirely by logistics.

This isn't what I expected when I saw Krieg, I expect heavy metal, blasting my ears to the tee while screaming about blind courage, I couldn't have been more wrong, orchestral with a slight mix of metal. At first, when I began to listen I felt confused, almost a bit angry as I have been waiting for a DKoK song for ages, but slowly it began to make sense. Slowly more and more the lyrics hit me as I listened, about a minute in was all I needed to understand, this isn't about blind courage, about a funny man in a gasmask beating a bloodthirster to death with a shovel, bombing chaos to hell. This is about Krieg, this is about it all. This is what it is to be a Krieger, the truth that once more they can not fail the emperor like they had, to sacrifice themselves to earn even what they believe to be the smallest sliver of the Emperor's forgiveness. Someone posted on a previous video talking about what he called "The StringStorm Effect" Which I agree with. At first, you don't realize then slowly the more you listen; it makes sense, and it couldn't be more perfect then what was portrayed in what I can only describe as art.

I remember the day my Primarch, Roboute Guilliman, asked me a question about the Kriegsman. It was a mundane question, one he could have even guessed the answer to. The question itself birthed a litany of other questions and a single teared statement. "Why do they wear the masks?" I turned my head to meet his eyes and I wondered at the question, he meant it literally, he didn't know what they were, rare that my Primarch would be ignorant of anything, especially history. "They are the Death Korps of Krieg, they always wear them, their homeworld has a toxic atmosphere." My Primarch nodded, I could still see in his expression that another curiosity lingered, and then he gave words to the emotion. "They never remove them? Why? This atmosphere isn't toxic." Instead of answering I shook my head at the ground, it was a tragic tale, gifting their history any thoughts would bring most to their knees, even Space Marines. "Kriegsman believe that their war, their duty, is everlasting. They think that they need to be ready to fulfill the Emperor's will at any moment. They're not so equipped for war as they are equipped for their own death, to slow their impending doom so they might give the Emperor more use, no matter how miniscule it is, they will give it gladly. It's how their entire planet is." His eyes tracked mine and maybe he saw my internal agony, I had weathered a thousand battles, but I had never relayed the history of Krieg, the history of their heresy. "Their entire planet, is like this? Grim, inhuman, emotionless... soulless? Why?" I wanted to refuse to answer his questions, but I couldn't. "The sons of Krieg are not as you say, not soulless, they live their lives for the Emperor. I once visited Krieg, the planet was a hellscape. A hellscape devoid of the Emperor's grace and beauty, it was a place where the Emperor's Peace would be refused by its populace, they would believe that their own lives were worth less than the mercy of death. Most of these soldiers are children, sons fighting so the war their father's waged might be forgiven." The words did not strike true with the Primarch, there were still questions unanswered, a history he did not understand. So I told him of the beginning, the treachery of Krieg's highlords. The resistance that sprouted from Colonel Jurten, his cry for help that went unheard into the darkness, and then his headlong charge into the jaws of death, his faith in the Emperor alone guiding him. I told him of the war, the brutal unyielding war that never ended. The generational trenches that spread across the entirety of Krieg, the dried ocens that turned into fields of lasgun fire and artillery barrages. The genetically enhanced beasts that carried faithful soldiers into the fray of the heaviest combat, equipped to die, never to survive. "Five hundred years, Krieg fought for five hundred years in unending war. Jurten's own forces were all dead before the end of the first decade but Krieg's sons and daughters bred a new army. An army that marched over the luscious fields that once existed and left war in their wake. They finally won the war after trillions had been killed, returned to the fold, and greeted the Imperium with heavy hearts." My heart was caught in my words, it was agonizing to relay it, to say the truth. "They believe that they are the arch traitors, the betrayers, the worst of heretics, that theirs is a lineage of the unfaithful, their blood is the blood of heathens. The people of Krieg believe it is their duty to atone, for eternity, for their crimes. They produce nothing, they build nothing, but they have their sons. The sons they throw away, because traitors deserve to die. Ever since they returned to the Imperium they have given everything away freely. To them every Krieger, every child soldier they send into the boiling heat of battle, deserves only death. When they die, they only see a number lost, equipment to scavenge, a heretic dead. They will continue to atone for crimes that weren't even their own, and they will do it without question, forever. They can never be forgiven, they *know* this is as a fact. Yet I have heard them in their dying breaths, all of them, begging for the Emperor's forgiveness." I felt the tears roll down my cheeks, the faith of the lowliest Kriegsman could test that of even the hardest Astartes, their souls beget only agony. "That's not true." My Primarch spoke, overcome with grief I had somehow forgotten his presence, turning to him in his pause I could see the only tear to ever be produced by Roboute Guilliman fall from his glistening eyes. "I know my Father's heart well, they were forgiven long ago. They achieved atonement, five hundred years worth."

*Krieg lyrics* Only a child, From the womb of a machine, Harvested from tank, Like waking from sleep, Born with me, From the first breath that I take: "Know their mistakes". A world that found redemption through a planet's dying lungs, That witnessed all the fire that blotted out the sun, Through the Purge could it begin to be undone, What they had done. There is no glory or greatness found here, No tales of valiance or of courage over fear. This is the fate of the deserving warzone fodder, Those born with sin and live without honor. By every passing day, The ranks grow ever thinner; This is as is should be. Here, corpes are the winners. Survival of the fittest, Our deaths have been assigned- And I choose mine. I inherit sins from those who came before, Our cursed bloodlines, Tainted to the core, From this dead world, The lessons we have learned: There exists salvation in the cogs and bolts of war, I know nothing of the trenches I am to die on, Nothing of the causes that I'm to fight for, Only that redemption lies in breaking opposition, I'll never pause in obtaining exoneration! Not like the masses who live their live in gain, I am disillusioned, Arms wide open, We embrace our fate, My life first absolution, We stride to hell unflinching, We do not hesitate, No survival instincts; Only faith, innate, Through our pile of corpses, Triumph we shall gain, While our cannons rain fire, Make the earth quake, Marching to the trenches, Then charging to demise; Nothing but gasmask and lasgun to utilise. I am expendable, A tool for his plans, To kill as is needed and to die as he demands Advance upon the battlements and win this through my blood, A war of attrition. To hinder their progress as my carcass rots in mud, A suicide mission. To bear the curse of life that must seek vindication, Was not my decision. As I step forward, I feel no hesitation. Amongst my division. Just a mere child, Born and trained in a flash, Raised as a brushstroke in his portrait of ash, I am expendable, A tool for his plans, To kill as is needed and to die as he demands The signal was given, From the trenches we dash, I see bodies scatter and spread as forces clash, My blood drips to the soil in a ruby splash, Am I forgiven? Did I find redemption, at last? In an endless cycle, I am a nameless link, The millions from before gone, Too, In a blink. Those who'll come after shall earn the same stigmas, May the mountains of our corpses earn a scrap of his forgiveness.

They shout no battlecries. They ignore it when the one next to them has their head blown open like a melon by a sniper round, or being vaporized by the green lightning of a gauss cannon. They don't cry out in pain when limbs are severed or blown off. The only thing close to an utterance is the constant breathing from behind the gas masks that are no longer metaphorical faces, but literal ones. When they're charged by a Howling Banshee or a Khornate Berserker, they wordlessy overwhelm them not in a display of finesse or overwhelming might, but in a zombie-like swarm of bayonets, shovels, and fists. When confronted with heavy armor, they wordlessly pull out melta grenades and advance. Constantly moving forwards. Slaughtering anything that is not of the Imperium. And when the Warp pulls them back to the Emperor's side, enemy and ally alike are still haunted by the sound of heavy breaths from behind black-lensed masks.

My thoughts on certain lines: “I am disillusioned” this is somewhat ironic, because, in fact, the Kriegers do not see reality, they see the galaxy worse than it is. “We stride to hell unflinching” honestly, I can see regiments of Kriegers marching through Commoragh, not flinching, firing at all who oppose them, not tempted by Chaos. The Kriegers are not human in their attitude. They are, mentally, the perfect soldier for large armies. They see themselves as pawns and are incorruptible. If you offered them a life of luxury, they would say that they would rather die for the Emperor. Edit: “No tales of valiance, of courage over fear” this is probably because the Kriegers seem incredibly valiant, even if they are unaware of it. The reason there are no stories of courage over fear is because they have no fear to begin with. But, as commented, there is a difference between being valiant and being suicidally loyal.

The Death Korps' aesthetics (uniforms, vehicles, artillery pieces) are inspired from the Great War. Helmet is a mix between the Stahlhelm and the Casque Adrian. Gasmask is British/Amercian. Trenchcoat is German/French. The Lasgun is inspired from the Kar98k. The Death Riders and their officers are a shout out to the French Cuirassiers. Same with the combat doctrine : attrition warfare. Dig a trench, soften the enemy's positions with artillery barrages and taking them, whatever it takes. It's pretty much the same for every IG Regiment : - Cadians are a mix between our modern armies, Colonial Marines and the Canadians Shock Troops from WW1. - Catachans are Vietnam War Americans and Australians mixed with Rambo's workout. - Armageddon Steel Legion = Wehrmacht Panzer Divisions - Mordian Iron Guard = XIX Century Prussians. - Praetorian Guard = Colonial British Army. - Elysian Drop Troops = French Paratroopers (they even have a bullpup lasgun to mimic our FAMAS) - Harakoni Warhawks = American Paratroopers. - Phantine Air Corps = Space Battle of Britain. - Phantine Skyborne = Space British SAS. - Dieprian Mountain Men = Italian Alpini Corps. - Vostroyan Firstborn = Space Cossacks. - Valhallan Ice Warriors = inspired from the Red Army. They even have the infamous human waves tactics. Cranked to 22 with Kubrik Chenkov and his Tundra Wolves. - Attilan Rough Riders = Space Huns. Another list of Regiments : i.imgur.com/4cowXzP.jpg and 1d4chan.org/images/b/b3/Guard_Regiments_2.jpg Take a look at their uniforms. One way or another, they're inspired from passed or present armies.

Think about it, taught from the beginning to feel guilty of the crimes of your forefathers and the only way to pay penance is to give your life "in hopes millions may earn a scrap of His forgiveness." To go above abd beyond what is expected is one thing, but to have complete and utter diaregard for your safety while doing so, it is a rare thing nowadays, but the Korps are taught it from the beginning. Id imagine the Emperor does forgive them, and much more.

Ever since I got into warhammer, I fell in love with the death korps. The tragedy of their history in contrast with their stoicism and fatalism. They don't know happiness, they don't know the loving touch of a parent; They only know the cold, harsh reality of the 41st millennium. They know that death is on every battle field, yet they don't fear it. They embrace their roles and they fight on in hopes of even gaining the smallest amount of the emperor's forgiveness. Its a tough world, and the kriegsmen know it, but they don't care. They follow orders and they get done what is necessary. Terranis holds, and it will hold forever.

The death korps of Krieg is as it is becouse of their past. Their paradise world rebelled and it caused an apocalyptic war that destroyed their world. Believing themselves eternaly sinful, the Krieg that came after committed themselves to war for the God emperor in hope that their sacrifice earns forgiveness for their soul. The life of a Krieg solder is a never ending hell becouse they see themselves as nothing more then living corpses waiting to sacrifice for the God Emperor as so dictates the Krieg Cult of sacrifice.

This song. It tells a story, not about valiant charges towards the foe. Nor about courageous last stands and inspiring words, orders bellowed beneath the regimental banners. No, it tells the story of a people, a people with no hope, save for one thing: Redemption. Only the grim determination to fight in His name. In the hope that *somehow* what they are doing will at some point absolve their people of their inherent sin. The debt that they percieve to be owed towards Him, and His Imperium. It is a story about the cruel and unyielding nature of war, of the unforgiving universe, and the people who - without a word - stand ready. Stand ready to lay down their very lives for their own redemption. But also to prevent other from having to fall, like they themselves did. “People sleep peacefully in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.” - George Orwell.

A battle rages around, millions of corpses piled in the mud, some long rotten, some fresh and some maybe still warm, a blood red sky above... a distant whistle can be heard, an officer yells "EMPEROR PROTECTS!" as thousands of masked soldiers arise from the trenches... they run forward, weapon in hand, empty visors of the gasmasks showing no emotion... one can feel the ground tremble, as they all let out a muffled scream... "REDEMPTION!!!" (I'm aware that it's probably not how a Death Korps charge would look like, I'm new to the WH40K fandom, I just felt really inspired to write something quick here... I really thought there could be nothing more incredible to me in this universe than the Space Marines. Oh boy was I wrong)

The Death Korps of Krieg are easily my favourite regiment in the entire imperium. Fighting, killing and dying to redeem themselves of sins they didn't even commit, the sins their ancestors committed over 1500 years ago, the most stoic, tough, intense, ruthless, faithful and unyielding men, women and *CHILDREN* I have ever heard and seen. They are criminally underrated and it hurts me to know that. By the will of the emperor, we will fight on. Thank you for this, StringStorm.
