Inside Imperial Armour: Compendium

 

 

This Friday sees the release of the new Imperial Armour: Compendium. That means that your favourite models from Forge World will be returning to the battlefields of the 41st Millennium with rules that are bang up to date. Today, we’re taking a look between the covers of this book and showing off some of the contents within. Speaking of contents, let’s start with a look at those very pages.

Wow, that’s a lot of datasheets! A whopping 191 in total have been updated for the latest edition of Warhammer 40,000.* Eagle-eyed readers will notice that the book includes two factions that are available in print for the first time – Titan Legions and Chaos Titan Legions. 

One thing not mentioned on the contents pages is the code for Warhammer 40,000: The App. Yes, you’ll be able to get all of these rules in the palm of your hand. 

On that note, let’s take a look at some of those new rules. For example, the Death Korps of Krieg get a Regimental Doctrine for the first time – one that represents their grim determination in the face of appalling casualties.

We’ll be taking a closer look at the forces of Krieg later in the week, but it’s not just these stoic warriors that are featured in the book though, there are also datasheets for some of the Space Marines Chapters of Renown – Red Scorpions, Minotaurs, Blood Ravens, Astral Claws, and Carcharodons. This means that you’ll be able to field such legendary warriors as Carab Culln the Risen and Asterion Moloc in your games of Warhammer 40,000.

Whether you want to reclaim the galaxy with the Necrons, burn it to a cinder with the Chaos Space Marines, or convince everyone to join the Greater Good with the T’au Empire, this book contains the datasheets and the points values you need.

The Imperial Armour Compendium is available to pre-order from Friday. In the meantime, head over to the Forge World website and pick up some reinforcements for your army.

* If a unit exists but doesn’t have a datasheet in this book, don’t worry! It will be getting a Warhammer Legends datasheet so that you can continue to use it in your games.

Imperial Armour Compendium: Return of the Death Korps of Krieg

 

 

The Death Korps of Krieg are back to their indomitable best in the new Imperial Armour Compendium, which comes complete with a Regimental Doctrine and more for the famously stoic Guardsmen. Let’s take a closer look.

The first thing worth noting is that the Death Korps gain access to the full Astra Militarum arsenal from the codex. Now, the tanks, infantry, and auxiliaries available to other Regiments can also be used in this army – those Ogryns already come with gas masks ready to go!

The Space Marines are renowned for knowing no fear, but in this, they are not alone – the Death Korps of Krieg share a similar disdain for such a notion and actively seek out the deadliest, most inhospitable war zones to fight in. Their new Regimental Doctrine captures this principle perfectly, meaning that they will fight to the last man and often get a final hit in even then!

This doctrine practically encourages you to load up your tanks and transports with meltas and heavy flamers, then roll right into the middle of the enemy army, while your infantry engages in a ranged war of attrition, stoically weathering any fire that comes their way.

The Death Korps are a particularly renowned regiment of course, so they also gain access to a bunch of units that no other regiment has. There are five updated datasheets that are bespoke to the Krieg sub-faction, from the Death Korps Marshal to the iconic Combat Engineer Squads who exemplify their regiment’s mastery of siegecraft.

These units are famed for tunnelling underground to emerge behind enemy lines where they can put their shotguns and gas bombs to deadly use at close range. They’re excellent for ambushing light enemy units who thought they were safe, before putting the mole launcher to good use to harass more distant enemy threats with impunity.

The Death Korps can also field the legendary Krieg Death Riders who gallop to battle atop bio-engineered steeds and slay their enemies at point-blank range with explosive-tipped lances – as if being skewered on a lance wasn’t bad enough! After all, no self-respecting military commander would leave Krieg to fight the God-Emperor’s battles without some good ol’-fashioned cavalry!

For added punch, you can opt for a Death Rider Command Squadron, who all have an extra attack and take up none of your precious Detachment slots when taken alongside your HQ, a Squadron Commander. And to top it off, all those units – Death Riders, Command Squadron, and Commander – can all pop up on your opponent’s flank, rather than trotting across no man’s land, and charge straight into some hapless enemy squad camping on an objective!

 

 

Several other Death Korps of Krieg units that are no longer in production will be getting Warhammer Legends rules in November. This means that they can still be used in matched, narrative and open play games for those players who own the models and want to continue using them, though they won’t be considered a current part of the game for the purposes of official competitive events.

• Death Korps Marshall Karis Venner
• Death Korps Grenadier Squad
• Quartermaster Cadre Squad
• Death Rider Commissar
• Storm Chimera

Alongside these, there will also be Warhammer Legends rules on the way for dozens of other classic Warhammer 40,000 units that are not currently on sale. These will include rare vehicles types, unusual Dreadnought patterns, obscure xenos contraptions and other classic Forge World units, so players can continue to use their full collection in their games.

If you’re a fan of the fatalistic soldiery of Krieg (or enormous battle tanks, gribbly monsters, towering Titans, and more, for that matter), make sure to pre-order your copy of the Imperial Armour Compendium this weekend! In the meantime, head on over to the Forge World website and stock up on your Death Korps of Krieg in preparation.
