I just got my new Guard codex, and I'm looking to write a Death Korps of Krieg army list. I like the whole 'no retreat, no surrender' thing that they have going, and they have a good theme (WWI Germans) and cool looking models, but I wouldn't know how to play them. They appear to have their own special rules just for Forge World and Epic, but not so much at the 40k level.
My question is this: what kind of unit selection, what tactics, and what equipment should I give to a Death Korps army?
More specifically:
What is their fluff-wise best special weapon, heavy weapon, platoon set up?
What tanks would they use?
What units are they most likely to take?
I'm looking at 2000 points, so don't hold back on suggestions. I'm looking mainly at fluff, and then effectiveness. Also the army should prolly be balanced. Again, I'm not asking for a list, just some suggestions answering the questions I put above. Thanks!
