THE STORY
Krieg is a dead world.
Fifteen hundred years ago, it declared its independence from the Imperium of Man, and paid the price. One loyal soul defied its treacherous rulers, and laid the world to waste. From these ashes emerged a unique fighting force, forged and tempered in nuclear fire...
Today, the Death Korps of Krieg lay siege to a captured hive ctiy on the outskirts of the system-spanning Octarius War, in a desperate attempt to secure the cordon that stops untold masses of Orks and Tyranids from spilling out into the Imperium at large. The Korpsmen are relentless, ruthless, implacable, and unstoppable, even in the face of a war that seems unwinnable. How far will they go to achieve victory, and is history doomed to repeat itself?
Written by Steve Lyons.
Reviews
Really good
5By Søren bugI loved it but there’s a couple things I didn’t likeKrieg

5By That Person RobertIncredibleExcellent origin story for Krieg
5By KingWJOne of the better stories I’ve read for guardsmen. There is a bit of a back and forth between timelines that at first grated me a little, but I grew into the rhythm soon enough. An excellent narrative tool to keep you engaged on two fronts throughout. A simple read, not overly highbrow and easy to digest, while beautifully crafting the parallels of the two time lines. I was surprised the amount of curtain that was pulled back here, to see the inner workings of Krieg’s current homeworld. It was an interesting and compelling read, and I can’t think of a single glaring fault. Absolutely recommend.
