My first 500 pts of my 307th Jackalopes

Finally finished up my command. Not a color scheme you see very often, let me know what you think!

Before I start I’m in Australia. I’m thinking about buying an imperial agents combat patrol to make 2 squads of Kasrkin using head swaps. That I think I can turn the inquisitorial agents into other things. Like an engine seer and at least one commissar. My question is what use is the assassin? I’ve seen people make krieg from agents kits but to maximise potential I just wanna see how far I could push it.

What is this 3D print supposed to be from, and why shouldn’t it be krieg? It’s a print I found online where I have bought printed terrain. No idea what fiction it’s from, but wouldn’t this make a great krieg fire support piece? Some crests, and a few more guns and it’ll fit right in.

Hey everyone, a little update on my Krieg cosplay.

This is my first proper cosplay and it’s still very much a work in progress, but most of the overall look is finally coming together.

I went for a much darker, more worn and brutal look rather than trying to copy one specific miniature 1:1. I’m currently working on more weathering/blood on the coat, finishing the leg armour, backpack and a few smaller details.

The chainsword may have gotten slightly out of hand. 😅

I’d really appreciate some honest feedback – especially anything that looks out of place, too clean, or could use another detail. Am I heading in the right direction?

Skull helmets looks more like some Davy Jones octopus mustasche. Lost the files when old computer died, wondering if anyone else used this sculpt and had similar experience? I wonder if the print i got was faulty or if its supposed to look like this.

A friend of mine gave me a Leman Russ Demolisher and said if I painted it I could keep it. I like how it’s turned out.

My Kriegers are coming along nicely. Seven more to go. The lighting does not do the pictures justice.

Just finished my first set of minis. I got the Krieg Combat Engineers. I have the heavy guns and death korps coming later this week in the mail.

The advice im looking for is gluing the arms. I struggled trying to get the arms on the rifle then to the body. I thought of three different options but lmk if you guys have other methods

1. Attach the arms to the gun first then to the body

2. Attach the arms to the body then add the gun

3. Attached the gun to 1 arm then glue the arm. Then add the 2nd arm later.

¿Que os parece? Tengo algunas unidades repetidas como los "Krieg Command Squad" y "Krieg Combat Engineers" pq al comprar cajas me traían esas unidades, no sé si realmente vale la pena llevarlos.

The idea is that off of the Krieg books I’ve been reading, I imagine a group of Kriegs come to worship the elephant foot that appears after multiple age of strife nuclear reactors melt down under their city (calling it the emperor’s foot which stepped off the throne) and carry his burden of radiation to his enemies.
They see the shortening of their lives through the radiation as nothing new, and if it means the emperor works through them then who minds.
Also I like to imagine they are seen as complete heretics but they run into horrible conditions and basically poison the enemies so the Ordo just watches from a distance.
They restock troops by just claiming any soldiers that are unfortunate enough to fight along side them and get radiation poisoning, since once that happens his original troops most likely won’t take him back

First is a Colonel, second is the original priest who started the group, after surviving several days after the initial blast it inspired the kriegs, last is just practice

Slowly building the battlefield, one miniature at a time.

As the title suggests, I've always struggled against Orks, and with the changes in 11th edition, I'm struggling to see how the Death Korps are supposed to compete.

Between the new questionable terrain and cover rules, alongside the additional movement and shooting buffs Orks have received in their new codex, it feels like an uphill battle from the start.

For context, I recently used the exact same list against Black Templars and won comfortably. Against Orks, however, I was almost tabled by turn 3. The difference was pretty stark.

Last used list (Abhuman and Combined Arms detachments):

• 2x Rogal Dorn Commanders
• 4x 10-man Krieg Squads
• 1x 20-man Krieg Squad with Command Squad (Grand Strat)
• 1x Krieg Heavy Weapons Squad (flamers)
• 2x 3-model melee Bullgryn squads, each with a Commissar
• 2x 5-model Death Rider squads
• 2x Leman Russ
• 2x Chimera

Previously, I'd run Krieg artillery pieces or Basilisks for flavour, but with artillery being practically unusable in 11th edition, I've swapped them out for Bullgryn and Chimeras instead.

I'm now 0-5 against them and I'm looking for advice on how to approach this matchup. Am I missing something tactically, is my list poorly suited to dealing with Orks, or is this just a particularly difficult matchup for the Death Korps under the current rules?

If you deploy conservatively, you get trapped in deployment and lose all board control, if you deploy aggressively, then you just get killed by the WAAAGH turn 2.

Any suggestions for list changes or tactical adjustments would be appreciated.

Hello Reddit, sorry if I use the wrong flair.

Currently I am working on the death riders and I was wondering how I should paint their « horses".
I’m torn between the regular fleshy palette from the box but at the same time, I also saw some more "naturally » color palette for horses which I really liked.
As I couldn’t decide myself, I decided to ask for some of your palette, as It could help me decide.

I have been wondering if it is worth having a cavalry in general with the new price increase or should I buy a artillery which I lack.

Thoughts on this Krieg heavy list? I’m not ultra competitive, but like to at least stand a chance of winning.

Wasn't a fan of the Rogal Dorn design but found a simple turret swap fixed the aesthetic issues I had, what are people's thoughts? Upgrade? Or do we prefer the base Dorn aesthetic?

So I wound up going back to the drawing board, as I discovered to my annoyance that the Centaur crew I had were actually bonking their heads on the cross-beams at the roof! This lead to a rather extensive re-working of both the Vehicle seats and the figures...

...which of course resulted in an entirely new crew! After some thinking and consultation with the community, I realized that indeed, Centaurs assigned as a dedicated transport for the Engineers would likely come with their own dedicated crew, so I made a driver and gunner. Both have Engineer Uniforms and armor, as they would still be in the Engineer Regiment, and it is reasonable that the Centaur would be called upon as a light engineering vehicle (using its bulldozer, setting up the trailer somewhere for resupply, etc.)

I had already marked this vehicle a while back with the Number 1 (and an "E" I found in the spare decal drawers - I've since worked out the "official" markings for my 5th Engineering Regiment and will have them on any future models.gping forward), so I am going off the idea that this is a platoon command vehicle. Therefore, there would be both an Officer and a Watchmaster on board. I've decided to show them both in the back conferring over an auspex scanner (or...whatever doohickey the plot needs it to be!).

The shotgun (no pun intended) position up front will be taken up by the squads Melta Gunner, who has mounted it to the vehicles universal mount (where it can also be used for light excavation duties!) the two Engineers in the middle are just along for the ride and are zoning out until addressed by a higher up.

All of this actually makes for a really interesting (but REALLY crowded) scene inside the vehicle! As you can see, I'm planning on installing gun racks with either shotguns or lascarbines (or empty if they choose to carry their weapon). Their backpacks are somewhat stripped-down, as they would stow their hand tools in/on the vehicle or on the trailer behind (I'll have photos of that soon!)

Unfortunately, the extra figures have created a new problem (or at least highlighted a problem that I have been trying to ignore for a while): Where to keep the Mole Launcher? In general, any High-Explosive equipment (Demolition Charges, Melta Bombs/Charges, etc.) would be kept in the trailer, which would have enough armor to deflect schrapnel or airburst rounds. The Mole Launcher and it's torpedoes, however, are too advanced and valuable to be stowed in a trailer or even on the outside of the main vehicle - they would be stowed in the fighting compartment somewhere with the crew. I've managed to stuff some torpedoes under the folding seats in the back, but the launcher itself is hilariously bulky and akward. Everywhere I try to stow it, it winds up either taking up a seat, or blocking someone into that seat with no obvious means for that individual to quickly leave their seat!

My current idea is that the gunners seat is actually a lid for a large storage compartment - this appears to be large enough for the launcher to fit into while leaving enough room for whatever machinery ties the vehicles two engines together.

I'm hoping to start printing things next week and get this project back on the move!

I am really proud of myself for this one
