I've been building a new army for the War Without End campaign viewtopic.php?f=88&t=20362 and I've reached the point of enthusiasm where I'd like to post it up and let people see what's done so far.

It's still very much a work in progress, with another 12 vehicles, 6 artillery, 6 heavy weapon platforms, 8 aircraft and 120 infantry still in the works, so this is gonna be a big one. All the infantry so far have been painted by Steve Onyx, while I've done all the vehicles, artillery and terrain.

For any 40kFluffPurists, rest assured that this is just a standard Krieg army in arctic camouflage with a few customised vehicles. For everyone else, may I present

THE HOTH IMPERIAL GUARD

Death Korps Gorgon siege transporters rumble over the ice fields, each pair capable of discorging 100 snowtrooper infantry on 20 stands, including the army's Supreme Commander Darth Vader and his subordinate General Veers.

Image

The Gorgons and infantry provide a screen for Imperial At-At warhound walkers armed with Vulcan megabolters and Plasma blastguns.

Image

Despite the shooting focus of the Imperial armies, this is actually an assault list that works best up close and personal with the enemy.

Image

Earthshaker Artillery and a Death Strike missile silo lurk at the back of the formation. The artillery will soon be based, and is made from forgeworld heavy platforms and Otterware artillery pieces.

Image

A close up of my new conversion for Light Tanks uses Steel Crown turrets and Otterware trojan chassis, the goal being to make them look similar to my 40K converted chimeras.

Image


So plenty still to do, but so far I am very happy with progress. Come on, admit it, you're tempted to have a game vs Supreme Commander Darth Vader. :D

Very cool. I hope you have the old Battle for Hoth model kit for a good piece of scenery.

The Light Tanks look great. It's almost like the bits were all sculpted by the same person.

They are DRM Industrial Infantry. When painted white they do the job nicely.

Amazing - love them ! ( Let be honest, the battle for hoth is probably why most of us ever started to play war games ! )

I'm pasting a link to this thread to my old epic buddies - i think it might be enough to break their resolve and get them building 6mm armies again ! :-)

Hi,
Awesome.
Would you please post your army list you're using in war without end? I'm building my Igs and would like to get an idea of what works for Krieg.
Thanks :).

Sure Braxat,
Here are two versions at 3000pts. The first has artillery (or a deathstrike) with a couple of thunderbolts, while the second has a full 60 stands of infantry.

As you can probably tell from the fact my army now has the ultimate compliment of a thread dedicated to killing it, these army lists work very well for Krieg.


REGIMENTAL HQ [525]
Death Korps Supreme Commander Darth Vader, 19 Death Korps Infantry, Siege Transports (2 Gorgons)

INFANTRY COMPANY [425]
Death Korps Commander General Veers, 19 Death Korps Infantry, Siege Transports (2 Gorgons)

3 Hydra or Heavy Anti-Aircraft Platform
3 Earthshaker Platforms with Trojans
3 Earthshaker Platforms with Trojans OR Deathstrike Missile Launcher
Baneblade & 2 Shadowswords

Warhound Titan

2 Thunderbolts

Death Korps Commander General Veers, 19 Death Korps Infantry, Siege Transports (2 Gorgons)

Death Korps Commander Apology Accepted, 19 Death Korps Infantry, Siege Transports (2 Gorgons)
