149th Armageddon Steel Legion, Rolling Thunder

So as you all know, I was originally going to be playing Eldar Corsairs that really epitomised the whole Forge World on a budget ethos (1,750pts clocking in at £356) but with me being a gamer and very (VERY) fickle I have abandoned the idea of a cheap compact and very elite force, and have settled upon the Armageddon Steel Legion (using Death Korps of Krieg models) this will be an armoured force using Forge World models (where possible), but the Imperial Guard codex list.

The list I'll show soon.

With these guys being armoured assault specialists it was very easy to just the core of my army then load them up in tanks.
I shall start writing some fluff and history for the regiment soon.
The main attraction to the Krieg models is the whole WW1 imagery and I think these models best represent what it is to be human in the 41st millennium.
