DEATH KORP OF KRIEG THE STRUCTURE OF SLAUGHTER 

DEATH KORP OF KRIEG THE STRUCTURE OF SLAUGHTER Covering the equipment, structure and officers that make up this legendary Regiment of the Astra Militarum, the Imperial Guard, of the Imperium of Mankind in Warhammer 40,000. The story at the beginning is a fan fic an never ever to be considered cannon. Any inconsistencies are down, of course, my own failings. I am far from perfect, despite how I try my best to give you all quality videos to view/listen to. This video is designed for starters in the lore to Warhammer 40,000 and is not meant to be exhaustive or overly detailed due to this.

Death Corp of Krieg........one of the most depressingly inspirational regiments of the 40k universe

I do love that. “They win battles, we win wars!”

2 Views and the only Comment is Baldemort, well here goes: You are making great content.

The saddest part is, like you said in a previous video, the one thing that would break the unshakable spirit of the men of Krieg. Three simple words from the emperor himself... "I forgive you"

Iron Warriors: "The Emperor gives us all the hardest dirtiest campaigns! Death to the Emperor!" Krieg: "Pathetic."

The Death Korps of Krieg is one of my favorite regiments! they take pragmatism, sprinkle a little blood & guts over it, wraps it in a trench coat and promptly turn it up to 11 ☠

Astartes: It takes years of training, meditation conditioning and hardship to produce a single battle brother. 1000 of the finest warriors of mankind, capable if facing the most brutal and horrible terrors the galaxy can conjure and prevail. Our battle battle honors span millennia. Each Astartes is worth 1000 times his numer. What... are you looking at? Krieg Quartermaster: (staring at his notebook) Accounting for nominal casualty rates and allowing for shortages, my home world produces enough troops and material to destroy your chapter every 96 hours. Nice armor you got there. Paint that yourself?

Guilliman : Okay, I have decided to visit the planets that provide the best regiments of the IG Kriegers : ok Guilliman: and as the Son of the Emperor I have a decleration to make. Kriegers : ok Guilliman : The Death Korp of Krieg is one of the best regiments of the IG and because of that I give you the title of most renowed planets in the Imperium. Krieger : yay Guilliman ; And, As the Son of the Emperor, I have decided to forgive you the failure of your ancestors. Kriegers stay silent walk back inside and come back after a while Krieger's high command: We accept your title and the Forgiveness of your Father and have decided... Guiilliman : Yes? Krieger's high command:... to repay this forgiveness by trying to..... Guiilliman : Yes? Krieger's high command:... dying heroicly more than before for the Emperor. Guilliman: Throne-dammit

Before my time in the Vostroyan Firstborn I was attracted to the Death korps of Krieg I saw one of crazy bastard hold a building by themselves after the Tau wiped out his whole squad. Wouldn't retreat even after I ordered him to. (A dramatic retelling of a game I had in 8th ed with my DKoK army against Tau, where one Krieg Guardsman held a objective by him self for a two turns)

Oh man, this will be intense and slightly depressing. Few things show the true degeneration of the Imperium more than the Death Korp. Truly puts the grim in Grimdark

I feel little but sadness and respect for the men of Kreig, they fought their way to victory on an irradiated and dead world. Their ancestors sacrificed everything for their victory and killing the traitors. They serve as the most faithful of guardsmen and as the most fearless. All I hope for them is that should the Emporer stand once more, that he forgive them for the sins of their ancestors.

“May the mountains of our corpses earn a scrap of his forgiveness.” - part of the litany of sacrifice.

Stellar Voice acting - Check! Deep Dive into the lore - Check! Getting into a WW1 Mindset - Check! Shovel - Check! Getting a few nice riff ideas from the background music - Check! My Weekend is saved, Thanks for that!

Quartermaster would be an especially difficult job. Ave Imperator.

Anybody ever seen the fan art of a Kriegsman killing a chaos space marine with a shovel lol pure quality

Stirring, illuminating, and scary. The Death Korps are no forces I'd ever want to deal with. Well Done again, Brother B. Also, I'd love to see the mentality of an OLD Kriegan, like a Colonel, who still hasn't found his blessed place next to The Emperor.

I think in a time line where the Horus Heresy never happened, Krieg may have become a recruiting world for Mortarion’s Death Guard.

IN LIFE. WAR. IN DEATH. PEACE. IN LIFE. SHAME. IN DEATH. ATONEMENT.

Standard guardsmen after weathering prolonged artillery barrage: shellshocked DKoK guardsmen after weathering prolonged artillery barrage: hey man I was listening to that!

“We are the shovel”. Not the axe or the sword. Screw that weakness. LOL

Happy gas mask nosies. There I said it the meme god is satisfied.

Death Korps probably the only regiment that have balls big enough to melee combat the necrons that includes The Flayed Ones and actually managed to push back the necrons almost destroying their stronghold. Truly one of the 40k thing i have ever read

These men do their duty no matter what the cost, even million soldiers of their own. Duty and the willing to sacrifice is a no longer that common in our modern society that these men look like aliens, but these traits are the foundation of our world. Thank you Baldermort, the video was awesome but as many of yours way to short.

Carcharodons would probably love the good old kriegers. Both are the get it done no matter what type... Imagine if they would recruit from krieg... the marines coming from THAT unholy combination would be absolute monsters in battle.

It legit brought a tear to my eye when I listened to the speech at the beginning with the musical accompaniment. Amazing work as always Lord Baldermort!

Great job. I liked that you stressed that the Krieg aren't the Astartes. While the Krieg memes are funny, I do think it's gotten a bit out of hand and some people are starting to take them seriously. Btw I'd be careful about that coffee. Even saints have a limit.

Yes I love the dirty shovel boys And i have some good ish news I'm getting my new motorcycle tomorrow, i don't think there's much that can go wrong with that.

"For we are the Death Corp of Krieg. Our gift is Death. To our enemy- To Our Lord- Our gift is Death." That line shook me to my very core.

A tribute to the man which fought in the trenches of WW1, awesome.

Thank you my favorite astra militarum army that I play

You sir are a troubadour of 40k

IT'S MY BOYS! THE KRIEG! Thanks Baldermort for another great video!

*groans in ecstasy gripping my favorite shovel*

A little blasphemy there in the beginning Brother Baldermort, 'we are the body of the emperor' ? How very dare they?

Ah the shovel Bois putting in their glorious work. For the Emperor!

There is something about the sound of an air raid claxton that gives a man a thrill and a shiver of the inevitability of the coming strike. Everything and everywhere like the act of a deity. Luck. Are you born with it? Good then you might live to see another day after the next 30 seconds!

Sorry I am a bit late RU-vid only just gave me the notification, on the bright side really enjoyed the video

Kreig really does emphasizes everything that 40k is and should be. A world where death is a mercy, a world where the sky is nought but myth and life is unceasingly brutal. Compared to the world of Kreig, Catachan is an exotic safari. And very few places can really compare to how terrible it truly is to live on. The fact that people can still live on that world is a testament to the unending and perhaps even foolish undaunted spirit of mankind. But most the death Corps of Kreig emphasizes the sheer massive scale of death that there is.

I always believed that if the Death Guard remained loyal and were deployed along side the Death Korp they’d be a truly unstoppable force. It would be impossible for any opponent to break their lines

Now this is how you start a weekend. A Baldermort vid, models to paint and a chilled brew.

14:36 why are kriegsmen holding plasma pistols? That’s a waste of resources

Ahhhhhh. My son’s favorite faction. He’s getting death riders for his birthday.

I 40k, one sound is enough to scare kids straight when offered Chaos's blessings... The mechanical breathing of a Death Corps Guardsman... Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull Thrown! Farts for the Inquisition! Comments for the Algorithm!

I was watching 'the sandman' (a warhammer 40k tactics channel on yt) he was talking about how to be competitive in 40k and talked about trading units on the battlefield. Kreg does this tactic well, sacrificing units in order to take something more valuable from the enemy

Your voice and narrations are a holy showel cleaving the darkness of chaos🦾

Very good story today sir very well done

You really did the Death Korps proud Sir! Well done!

Oh man, the monologue at the beginning was exquisite - completely lost myself in it. My sincere gratitude, as always, my good sir.

I'm a newcomer to WarHammer, (I blame a frriend, : P lol). After he got me started he told me to look up the Death Korp of Krieg, this was the first vid I found. Sir, you instantly made them my favorites. The lore, the delivery and passion behind it, and that final line in the opening section gives me chills each time I hear it. "For we are the Death Korp of Krieg, our gift is death. To our enemy, and to our Lord, our gift is death."

I love how at the beginning the kriegers had only 1 real regiment they respected and that was the catachans.

Quantity is a quality of its own -Stalin

When I die bury me with my gas mask and tell the emperor I paid my debt faithfully and with honor

Ive always associated the entire culture of krieg with that of the slayer cult from WH Fantasy except with humans instead of dwarves and on a much more massive scale. Slayers abandon there old lives entirely in search of death in order to atone for a perceived shame. Not just any death will do. Only a glorious one will make up for their sins and with kriegers its no difference.

Anyone else feel the same as the intro about those who go into a shop wearing a theme park water ride poncho, a security helmet with face splash guard, a mask and a scarf, marrigold yellow gloves and sanitizer in a holster so they dont get the sniffles as i do as a 40k Kreig fan? Weeeeeak. Wwweeeeeeeaaak!!!

love the new intro sequence. also cant belive you would grace us with another Kreig video. They are my favored regiment, how i got into the hobby and the first faction I loved. Every time i see a video of yours, I know you will do right by the subject matter. so again. Thank you.

Urge to shovel RISES

Right in time with the new plastic Krieg models

The intro story makes me cry.

That intro speech is amazing

You are the Narrator of my grim dark nightmares! Your voice leads my dreams to dark places thank you.

Now imagine that if iron warriors stayed loyal and teamed up with the seigey gas mask bois

At last! Another Krieg video from Baldemort!!!!

Another fantastic video, keep up the great work mr. B

Yes now will this be a continuation can't wait for the storyline continuation he received two messages one they were sending Krieg

KRIEEEEEEEEEEEEG!!!!!!💀💀💀💀 Sorry about that I just get a little excited when I hear death korp of krieg, all out of my system now 👍

Death korp!!!! Awesome stuff baldy!!!

Yes Krieg, I just know this will be amazing. Thanks wordsmith Baldemort and Mrs B for this spectacular content!

Nice Sharpe reference at the end there.

Necromunda spiders. Would be good to hear. 🕸️🕷️

Astartes: We are the Emperor’s avenging angels Sororitas: We are the Emperor’s holy faith Imperial Guard: We are the Emperor’s mighty hammer Krieg: We are the Emperor’s angry shovel

Wonderful vid once more for lunch!

Another outstanding story and great information on the Korp. Thanks again, Baldy.

The first part is pretty much how I feel about the polo wearing office people while I fix equipment for them.

Making my way through all the old videos. Always a treat. Thank you for sharing old boy!

"Dulce et decorum est... Pro patria mori"

I LOVE YOU BALDY!!!!!!!

oh yes ... had a very bad Friday but this ... THIS! Will make it just that much better !

My gratitude to you and Mrs B sir 🙏

Fascinating regiment. Good stuff as usual!

the best lore channel ! thank you !

Prussians........IN SPACE!!!!!

Simply glorious

These guys , BADASSS wonderful thankyu lore master Baldermort thankyu good sir

Absolutely marvelous as always Mr B, you are a shining light

"... our gift is Death, to the enemy, and to our Lord; our Gift is Death."

Another piece of brilliant content Brother B, for possibly the most grimdark regiment in the whole setting. I love how in the far future of grav tanks, intergalactic travel and Titans there is still a force that specialises in the horrors of trench warfare

Dude. You deserve a Nobel peace prize in literature

My love of 40K lore began with your Krieg origin video, still one of my favourites. I am happy to see you make another great video about the Death Korps.

They are an archetype of the French and German solders that fought at Passchendaele and the Kaiserschlacht offensive. That is why I and so many others love them. Strange as that might sound to say out loud. I have two Great Great Grandfathers that fought on both sides of that pointless fratricide (*We are one people with many country's* No more brother wars!)

Easily my favourite regiment. Great work as always Baldermort!

Love the nod to Sharpe, Brother.

This - as always is a great an informative video. I'd only like to ad something: The Krieg uniforms look more like french ww1 uniform and not german ones. From the helmet, over the gas mask to the greatcoat. They all look more like french stuff.

Astartes: 🎵 I got a mace! I got a mace! Imma hit you in your heretic face!🎵 Death Korps: *I got this nice shovel!*

Great work, as usual! Loved your personal comments by the end of the video, always adding some depth to the often nonsensical and over-the-top official lore.

I like how You hide nuggets in the description Baldamort

Morning coffee, bacon and eggs and 40K, thank you for this wonderful video to get my day started

No matter how fanatic you are, you can never be as fanatic as a death corps soldier.

After listening your videos and listening especially the Death Korps Of Krieg your storytelling make me feel like I am in the story itself That I am the character in the story as I fought in the muddy trenches of Krieg Warfare As I fought against Xenos and heretics Demons alike with a shovel and thank you for this video and telling the Inner workings of how the Krieg was made...

We NEEED servomort in a tts cameo
