Factions:
Basically the teams you need to know are Imperium Of Man, Orks, Necrons, Tau, Chaos, Nurgl. These factions are hard to explain but they will be simplified.
- Imperium Of Man: Humans that are at war that live in a dystopia. There main troop is a space marine (a super solder with enhanced parts)
- Orks: They live like a clan with and for some reason there is a clan that believes that the color red makes stuff go faster even though it’s impossible BUT it works.
- Necrons: Robot skeletons with guns that shoot goop that dissolves on the atomic level.
- Tau: They fight for the greater good and are smart.
- Chaos: Corrupted space marines or just demons.
- Nurgle: They make desises and infect space marines they also have disgustang goblins called nurglings.
Timeframe of Game:
This game genre takes place in the 41 melania and earth is now called Terra the emperor use to be a god but it now a corps (also a melania is 1000 years)
Death Korps of Krieg:
A form of the Astra Militarum from a post nuclear war on Kreig. It’s a dead wasteland in the 40 melania and for 1500 years (standard) there was a war between the 2 factions loyalists and the traitors and they would purge (kill) the HERETIC rebels. Before that nukes were dropped. The heretic rebels had an impact on the Death Korps of Krieg.
The soldiers trying to redeem their past have been known to have such a suicidal rage that there commasars (commanders) have to be different , usually commasars make there soldiers use there suicidal rage, but the Krieg hav commasars as like handalers trying them to not let them use there rage there are LOTS of memes on the Krieg.
Wars: Tau are expanding and are fighting Nurgle’s forces , an ork WAAAGH (ork factions working together also its VERY big) are going towards the imperium of MAN. The hive (the alien from that game but 2 BIG daggers as extra hands) are making flesh towers and a Psyker’s head exploded so… yup. There’s some wars.
