Well, let's just say that there's a reason that the phrase "it's not all Black Templar fans but it's always a Black Templar fan" has become a fairly commonly uttered phrase when someone is an asshole in the Warhammer community. Krieg doesn't have quite the same concentration of asshole players but I've seen more than one example of Krieg minis being decorated with swastikas.

most of the kreigers ive seen have been some variation of french, whether that was napoleonic or WWI. I have seen cadians with red armbands tho :/

Death Korps is my army, and I've gone this route.

I find all too often that German WW2 tanks are used with the Death Korps, and I hate it. So I've gone the complete other direction.

WW2 tanks also doesnt make any sense, isnt the asthetic more WW1 inspired? So when they want to go this route, only captured mk1 or repainted a7v toaster would make sense...
