I'm making an Imperial Guard army in the near future and im trying to decide between the two given, and im wondering if i can get some general advice/opinions on either of them.

Cadians:

Pros

More model Range
More attention from GW in the form of formations/updates
cheaper Models.
(possibly more competitive due to More variety/formations)

Death Korps:

Pros

Stunning model Range (quite possibly the nicest models ive seen FW do)
More suited to my playstyle (i think) More infantry with artillery. Supported by tanks?

Im not going into the Details of Cons as i've not played either army. I'm just hoping to get some advice on what you guys would start up and why?

Thanks for any help]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8378340.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8378340.page GMT DKoK does indeed have an amazingly beautiful range however the price point is too steep in my opinion for the kind of collection I would want to build. So I am personally going cadians and thinking of maybe putting together a little 500pt DkoK project together.

The big question is are you willing to drop the cash for the models from FW and would you be using the guard dex? If so is that kind of cash for a currently subpar army a worthwhile investment for you? Also you can find tons of amazing deals for second hand cadians to make the difference even better. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8378564.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8378564.page GMT DKoK. The price difference doesn't come close to bridging the quality gap.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8378605.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8378605.page GMT dkok as they are stunning. However, imo they need to be display standard to do justice to the models, which is a lot of work on an infantry heavy army. If you just want to game with it and money is a serious factor in the decision, go for cadians. You can't tell a huge difference when they are on the table (a fact that once realized saved me a fortune), and you can always use the dkok rules in friendly games if you think you'd prefer the playing style.

If money isn't an issue, then dkok all the way.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8378760.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8378760.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8378763.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8378763.page GMT DKoK models. You don't have to use the krieg rules, you can just play them as "regular" AM if you want me to. So you get two armies in one (sorta)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8379614.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8379614.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8382116.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/676302/8382116.page GMT
