Honestly I want an army of DKoK that won't heavily rely on needing a lot of troops in order to win, and my pal stated I would need allies in order to do that.


An krieg army is usually build with a gun line with atillery. Artillery has and needs a lot of foot infantry crew.
The other route is going for krieg cav. But that is also quite a lot of models. Krieg has better infantry rules and you pay for it.

If you like Imperial guards with less infantry I would advise to go normal IG with lots of vehicles and order some FW krieg pilots to change the feel of the army to Krieg.
Get these sets for your tanks

Or go full FW tank if you have the money for it.

As allies you might want to reconsider grey knights. If you want to field something powerful go for imperial knights or regular marines but it might help if you read upon the krieg fluff. http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Death_Korps_of_Krieg

Alright so I'm willing to just do a basic DKoK army, honestly I have no interest in using IG, but now I need help creating a list, I do want a couple tanks with infantry troops but what do I need and also how do I even play in general, I need basic info now, I know basic lore of 40k, just not the actual logistics of it all. Sorry if I'm not understanding a lot of this.



K lest make a flow chart and ignore if the model look "krieg" or not it isn't about that it is about the TYPE of models used not about the IG army faction they belong to.
