Changes

'''The Death Korps''' are an [[Imperial Guard]] regiment from the [[Imperial]] world [[Krieg]] and are notoriously grim and fatalistic warriors, they are well-known for their dour habits and sinister appearance. No regiment in the imperial guard has such a accord with death, and the sins of Krieg adorn there solemn, dark greatcoats with skulls, bones and other such icons of mortality. The history of the Death Korps is peculiar indeed; when the Autarch of Krieg renounced the imperium his populace rose up against him in a devout fervour, and the regiments raised to combat the heretic responded with such horrific force that the planet Krieg was changed forever, in fact,this uprising led to a five-hundred year long campaign of atomic purging that resulted in the previously populous Krieg degenerating into a toxic wasteland of ash and ruins. yet the sacrifice of their home world seems not to be enough to atone for the Autarch's heresy. The Death Korps of Krieg still believe they should be punished for the stain on their planets honour, and have embarked upon a quest for absolution that takes them into the most desperately dangerous war zones and hopeless battles in the name of the imperium. their martyrdom in the name of the imperial cause is well documented, for the Korps do not fear death. in fact many seem to welcome it, and a platoon of Death Korps will quite willingly follow orders deemed to be suicidal by less dedicated troops. as a result of this, Officers of the Krieg know that their orders will be carried out efficiently and to the letter. it is this suety that has led to many victories against seemingly impossible odds.
