The Death Korps of Krieg are an elite and fanatically loyal regiment of the Astra Militarum (Imperial Guard), infamous for their grim resilience, unshakable discipline, and willingness to embrace total warfare without hesitation. Originating from the radiation-scorched hive world of Krieg, their history is one of brutal self-destruction and atonement—when the planet fell into civil war and declared independence from the Imperium, the loyalists waged a centuries-long war of attrition, ultimately reducing their own world to a lifeless wasteland in the name of reclaiming their honor. Ever since, the Death Korps have been bred for war, raised in the choking remnants of their dead world, trained from birth in trench warfare, attrition tactics, and unwavering service to the Emperor. They are renowned for their gas-masked anonymity, their trench coat-clad ranks marching unflinchingly into machine-gun fire, and their grim acceptance of suicidal assaults that would break lesser regiments. In battle, they employ World War I-style tactics, with massive artillery bombardments, trench fortifications, and human wave attacks that grind down the enemy at any cost. To the Death Korps, death is neither a fear nor an escape—it is their duty, and their only redemption lies in endless, unrelenting war.
