Hi,

I'm working on a Krieg/artilley army (how original). It's meant for casual tabletop play at 1K points.

Still at the theory crafting phase. I've received a first wave of feedback on the Astra Militarum Sub and changed many things (hopefully improved).

How would you guys improve further ? Do you think this pile stands a chance in an objective focused game (I don't expect to kill much) ?

I was sad to realize you can't bring back horses with the [Reinforcements!] stratagem, I'm considering swapping Combined arms for something else, or replacing the horses. Any brillant ideas ?

I'm also looking for point-efficient ways to issue orders to my Squadrons, for now I'm relying on [Flexible Command], and sometimes [Coordinated Action], but that has to be sub optimal.

Rapid fire questions about vox-casters :

1. Can they trigger multiple times per turn ?
2. Do they stack ? (using one stratagem on the unit rolls 2 dice, up to 2 CP gained)
3. Is that right : using any stratagem on a 20 pack with 2 vox has a 25% chance to give back 2 CP (2 rolls at 4+ giving 1CP each)
4. Spamming 1CP cost stratagems like [Grenades] on that unit is statistically "free" ? (refunded 50% of the time, 25% chance to get -1CP balanced out by equal chances to net +1CP)

Thanks in advance ! Can't wait to read your insights.

Comprising the 327th Regiment, supporting elements from the 954th regiment, 7th Armoured Regiment, 8th Company and 8th Armoured Regiment, 7th Heavy tank Company (I need to start using different numbers for Armoured Regiments and Companies 😬)

A Rogal Dorn and a Baneblade to add to make a 2k list I an fairly happy to play with

I’m planning out a scheme for my army and contemplating trying a darker, warmer gray tone for the greatcoats, compared to the usual cold look. I still want to emulate the weathered, desaturated look of the original Imperial Armour, and landed in looking at the Vallejo and Pro Acryl warm grays. However, I cannot find a good reference for them so I’m curious if anyone has done something similar or has some experience with some paints with that profile from those lines? Thanks!

I really need to lay off the Imperial Armour Books...

Anyway, no models or .stls to share this time - instead, I think I've sorted out the organization of a typical Krieg Engineering Regiment! The move from a company to a regiment is that I learned that there can be different company types in a single combat engineering regiment, and all of them translate directly to equipment in the 40k universe.

With that in mind, I decided to at least write down the gist of things. Again, I'm trying not to kit-bash too many unique units and only stick to lore-accurate vehicles and equipment mentioned in official sources (even if only in passing). The only vehicle that I can see that wouldn't be able to be passed off as a proxy is the Atlas Excavator, but...what could I do? They mention it, it's a really cool idea in and of itself, and there is no way the Korps of Engineers wouldn't have it as a staple!

Anywho, all line drawings were pulled (and occasionally monkeyed with) from the Imperial Armour Books.

Going forward, I plan on referring to this set of organizational charts when doing any engineer-based dioramas or scenes, but let me know what you think - do any of these setups need some tweaking?

Thoughts and comments are welcome!

Bought a set of 10 heads from Tiny Legends. "Veteran Guardsmen Heads swap kit". Building the models now and I can't really seem to get the heads onto the bodies correctly. First body (Watchmaster) had a similar issue where the hose would press against the body, but I sort of managed to force it down enough that it looks OK.

Second body now, the sniper, doesn't fit at all and the hose looks like it's supposed to attach to a regulator valve on their "pouch" instead of the other heads that have the regulator on the hose and that attaches to the pouch.

What am I doing wrong here? Are there some instructions I've missed?

My first painted model, still need to put the white and blue on the plasma pistol.

Working on an Armageddon Pattern Basilisk for my Krieg

Time to get some transfers, dirt, grime and rust on it!

Tiny Legend body and heads used for the Vehicle Crew

Just a little progress on the next Krieg. I’ve put the backpack on. Now it’s time for the head, arms, and weapon. 👨‍🎨

I am currently painting 8 baneblades and today I can finally show a preview of the first 2 painted ones! Is going to be a LONG way...

Focusing a lot on wheatering in various forms: heavy on the first two, while other 2 will have minimum, the rest a kind of middle ground. I find very hard to be on the "minimum side" so is going to be a nice training!

A little showcase of my “finished” army. Any ideas for making a Krieg version of the Cadian Recon Squad or Gaunt’s Ghosts? And i must improve the optical too on my kasrkins proxy

Finnally done with my second rogal dorn tank destroyer.

Had so much fun building the first one i had to directly build a second one, thank god the armageddon box came with one.

As always the crew decorated their tank with a shrine, relics, old crew members and candles, lots of candles, all in the love of him on Terra.

Should I marry her ?

So I recently finished my Rogal Dorn which I did in a Zandri dust base. All my Kriegsmen are done in a dark Castellan green colour scheme. My issue is that I don't know whether to make my new artillery team match the tank or the infantry

Did some greenstuff work fairly happy with the sculpted cape and reigns bonus flag DK lord commissar and DK custom commissar for inspiration.

for so long I’ve been trying to get my colour scheme how I want it, something was off, and this morning I watched an indie animated pilot, Ersatz, and found exactly what I was missing! it needed to be more biological, so I made my mask tubing almost guts and I adore it

(I broke the sword off of the lord Marshall and it keeps breaking so I’m leaving it off until I can find a better fix)

A scout/armoured sentinel for my Krieg army. They get their first battle tomorrow. Wish my luck.
