... that Krieg Army is an absolute work-of-art. My-god; it's as much a tribute to miniature-gaming as it is to the fusion and preservation of classic military-elements of war. That is a true labor-of-love with a price-tag that could choke an elephant. Lovely to see it in action...
How do you keep track of what unit is what if they are the same unit and look the same. Example would be those pox walkers. Im noob so I was wondering about that when they both attack together and pile in. Same with like imperial guard squads or hordes of orks.
@@savagex466-qt1io you either just remember because you’re the one putting them down or some people have colourised bases. There’s places you can get things that clip on the base that give it a coloured edge. Of you can just paint the back or the base a different colour.
Awesome game! I've always heard about Death Korps but never seen them play on the table. This game made me look into the lore and I was blown away! Great game. Keep up the good work!
DG player here. LOVED the deployment of the scenery for this skirmish. Watching generals forced to maneuver squads down narrow corridors and funneling them into claustrophobic trenches captured the feel of the WH40k universe well on the tabletop. One of the things I've come to appreciate about this channel is their thoughtful placement of terrain around the board, and how that will affect decisions made as both forces strive for op-sec in their own unique way.
For someone who knows nothing about the mechanics of this game, it was fun and funny to watch. Had high hopes for the death korps but they did what they loved to do
Death Guard player here, its always nice to see Terminus Est batreps! The recent (undeserved) nerfs really did a number to it, so I'm glad it can still get shown off, even without Typhus. Lord of Contagion is one of my favorite models too, so its cool seeing him in the spotlight as well
Never played. Addicted to the lore. This is great! Thanks for being apart of something that is totally epic and bad ass. And thanks for sharing the game play.
A note to the melee situation with the "fire on my position" strat. Is says a UNIT with a Vox caster not a MODEL so you can have the sarge as the last Model on the table and still use the strat :) and now you don't have to pay pts for the vox yaay
"Charge" "and stop the artillery right?" "Now why would I stop the artillery" - a conversation between a death korps of Krieg comander and a allied Imperial guard comander
I think for DKoK - the artillery was iffy - but it definitely did contribute a lot - which was surprising. If you had the Macharius Vulcan - I think that might have been a better play against DG - the problem with Vanquisher anything is the sheer randomness of the dice rolls and the rules are …. The Vulcan has so many shots that it can annihilate whole units in one round of firing. Heavy weapons teams - I would bring auto cannons instead of Lascannons, you get more shots and more chances to hit instead of single shots with lascannons. On the Sentinels - I don’t typically see them so either a flamer or AC works okay? Overall - I really liked the episode a lot.
Flail of corruption does 2 hit rolls per attack now, not d3. Just wanted to let you know :) Plague marines also don't have bolt pistols even though they should, lol
I noticed you never used Hammer of the Emperor in your shooting phase for your infantry. Was this video before the data slate or do Krieg not get it for some reason I don't know?
Pretty good game and nice armies! I love Tempest of War as Maelstrom was my favorite format in 8th. I could do without the Actions personally, but I appreciate having another way to play.
A guy in my circle is a newfound Death Guard lover and I just recently got stomped by them, so I have a vested interest in seeing the Kriegsmen trample over Papa Nurgle
I love the battlerep of you with the Death Guard. There is just one thing. As far as I know do Poxwalkers have a 5+ feel-no-pain (as the codex says). They are still following the rules for the disgustingly resilience from 8th edition.
Krieg want to lean into supporting vehicles or artillery so their doctrine can actually proc. So under utilized in the krieg games, a small number as it is, from what I can tell.
So rare to see the Death Korps so many Death korps models there that are discontinued by forge world like the quartermaster and the Grenadiers. If they are going to make the Death korps in plastic they should have kept the proper look the new death korps from GW look to goofy and silly. All ill say is that is a lot of money on the table from the death korps player nice
This kreigarmy (with completely useless 300 point models such as Macharius Vanquisher) was fun and fluffy, and was not remotely competative. I'm not enturely sure why he was matched against a death guard army of renown, which is one of the more viable ways of running this 9ed army that was placing in tournaments not that long ago. The extremely low damage output of the guard (d3 damage battle cannon for example) against the very tough death guard made this a no-win fight for tke kreig player, and consequently no fun to watch. How does Luka chose his lists?
How did you know? The macharius vanquisher (with 2 dedicated anti tank shots) being a a useless overcosted thing with nothing better to shoot at than chaos spawn feels really bad for the guard player. Having luka spend 500 points a big stupid off-meta units like defilers or land raiders would have been an decent compromise.
Not really, considering Death Guard got hit by a nerf recently, and a pretty undeserved one as most agree. Its more that the DKOK need a buff to come back to relevance.
@@beaushaver3779 death guard is att moment in competive seen as lowest armys with 40% win rates for now and army that have harder time play tournament missions for now when mission want objective secured and units that can do actions. And plague marines only one for them.
@@beaushaver3779 You really don't know what you're talking about if you think death guard need another nerf. They're considered a bottom tier faction now.
@@NastyStankyChicken Idk I think their tournament listings are misleading they as a faction and army are strong pound for pound they are just slow and relatively elite unless you swarm with pox walkers so are bad at playing mission objectives. So mechanically they are very strong but tactically as far as mission objectives go yes they are bottom tier.

Yeah-man gotta-love the death-korps of Kr-ieg
Had the pleasure of playing Josh a few years back. He is a wonderful opponent and has a beautiful army!
So cool to see the DKoK in action!
After these buffs I hope we see them more

I don’t normally watch 40k batreps, but I am def watching this because of the DKoK!
I have regrets. 9ed. is just not my thing. But I have no issues that people like it.
The krieg never win, they just hold the line long enough for the plot armor to arrive

I see a table with no obscuring terrain and a guard army, this is going to be a bumpy turn
Lol
Love seeing some Possessed in action, gonna be a good watch. Also DKoK is always a treat
1:06:56 as the dice lands on 4, you can hear the echo of Dave laughing in another room.

A comon mistake he do. Old 8ed habits
was thinking the same
Josh is very well spoken and this game was a pleasure to watch.
You never want to take 1-shot weapons on BS 4+ Guardsmen; you need to roll more dice. Heavy bolters or autocannons...
Yeap, either more dice or better chance to hit/wound, preferably both. After seeing that heavy weapons team there is 0 chance I would ever run it
1:23:14 "That guy HATES the war, dude!" 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
Tempests of war will be the main format for my playgroup with friends for sure
A snapshot of the siege of Vraks.
Indeed ToW is the new best ever way to play w40k! Keep up the good work guys! :)
Amazing looking models all around!
This matchup is a literal setup and punchline
I noticed you never used Hammer of the Emperor in your shooting phase for your infantry. Was this video before the data slate or do Krieg not get it for some reason I don't know?
Was about to leave a comment about this but you beat me to it! HotE would have helped with the lascannon teams hitting the terminators
These tanks are absolutely beautiful. Which colours did you use for the blue?
Pretty good game and nice armies! I love Tempest of War as Maelstrom was my favorite format in 8th. I could do without the Actions personally, but I appreciate having another way to play.
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay death guard. More death guard. Papa bless. Whoooo
glad someone is playing death korps of krieg besides me
I didn’t catch much rolling for Cult of Sacrifice. Is that not a regiment bonus for the Krieg units?
bout to say were was the death gaurd legion of renown from? was it the new vigilus book or a diffrent release.
Hello, grate battle report, maybe can u put the list of the army's.
It's so hard to watch the DKoK dice rolls most of the game ...
Not sure if this was before the balance update that gave guard auto wound on 6s to hit but if not a lotta extra damage for the guard player.
Figthing the death guard could be unpleasant but fortuntately the krieg has gas masks! ;-) Nice batrep!
What codex are you using for Death Korps of Krieg? Asking for a friend
Ok. Who saw the painting ad and thought it was a Luiten09 video?
Fun battle, but good heavens do the guard need a new Codex
What are those objective cards that you guys used?
A guy in my circle is a newfound Death Guard lover and I just recently got stomped by them, so I have a vested interest in seeing the Kriegsmen trample over Papa Nurgle
Oof
Where do you buy the death Korp?
Yes. Love tempest of war
After watching and reading numerous videos and explanations I still don't get how people actually play this game! lol!
Holy cow, those heavy weapon teams were so terrible! I felt bad watching this lol
I wish I bought one of those macro batteries before they disappeared.
Guard auto wounds on 6 right?
I love the battlerep of you with the Death Guard.
There is just one thing. As far as I know do Poxwalkers have a 5+ feel-no-pain (as the codex says). They are still following the rules for the disgustingly resilience from 8th edition.
as per the newest codex they do not, they have unending horde which is a 6+ fnp
@@trevtev u are right. I don't know, why I always think that it is on a 5+
Finally a BR that isn't Harlequins or Tau
So true haha!
Krieeeeeg! You need more infantry!
Horrible way to throw dice
I never seem to find videos where the astra militarum wins!
those flail rolls, is this 8.5ed?
God, lascannons on heavy weapons teams seem so bad. Should've used autocannons instead
Especially with the hammer of emperor rule in play now. More chances for auto wounds.
In life, War
Love Tempest 🙏
Krieg want to lean into supporting vehicles or artillery so their doctrine can actually proc. So under utilized in the krieg games, a small number as it is, from what I can tell.
KRIEG🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
oh another guard game, cant wait to see how they lose this time.
Yeahhh...
Who is the Joshiest of the Joshes?
Where can one get the DKoK models?
Mostly forge world
Good Game.

Nurgle rules!
There is a lot of… Death in this battle
MY BOYS
only thing i hate is that they dont use cm t
Daddy nurgle vs Dr who mommy
where in Texas is her from? Dallas here
You can not be named Josh you are impostors there is only 1 Josh and that is the Josh who won the Josh war
Ever thus to imp guard.
Please play some meta death guard. Please
How much did that Krieg army cost lmao?
Probably more than my lung
Krieg is insane expensive, my army would easily be like 10k if it was, from ForgeWorld and not
Other places
Bruh, the Death Riders are t4. Those first Poxwalkers shoulda wounded on 5s if they're St 3.

Cool game. But would have been more fun with your word bearers Luka
Nurgle needs a nerf. They have numbers, hard to hit hard to wound. As soon as I saw the armies I called it for Death Guard. Unreal.
