Dawn of War Codex

Addition of a Death Korps of Krieg Bayonet?

So I noticed that you guys edited some things with the when it came down to the Chaos Word Bearers DLC, which had very great additions made. However, I was always wondering as to whether or not you guys could add a bayonet to the Death Korps of Krieg Guardsman Model? From what I do "KNOW", it wouldn't be to hard to add from the videos I have watched on "YouTube" about stuff like this. I love everything you guys already have done but since you've been improving skins and such lately, I was just hoping you guys could add this small improvement . It gets annoying when the skin looks great but the models go into melee, and they're thrusting their rifle barrels instead of a good old bayonet, which can break immersion . I love everything else you guys have done with the game play but you also seem to be trying to appeal to the little Warhammer Fan boy/girl in all of us, and this could be a nice way . Thank you for your consideration!!!!

Didn't it go down from 5 to 3? I mean 3 is crazy good, gives IG the buff they need.

Nah the change log mentioned a new population cap for the Guardsman squad leaders, seeings how requisition upkeep for the IG faction can sometimes prevent a tier 3 upgrade. By this addition it would decrease the requisition upkeep allowing for a more productive technological development, something other factions have a edge on in 1v1 matches, which also SOMETIMES makes the IG faction a lesser choice in comparison to others.

You've confused me

The population change is there, and it is what Cheah mentioned. It's just worded differently. The Guardsmen squad gained 5 population before, 3 for the sergeant/commissar and 2 for the additional guardsmen. The population increase was reduced from 5 to 3, but only the population of the sergeant and commissar were lowered. The population of the Commissar and Sergeant is reduced from 3 to 1, which is technically a decrease caused by the upgrade of 5 to 3. It's equivalent, a decrease of 2.

Okay that makes more sense thank you very much for clarifying

Wait what? I thought we were talking about adding bayonets. When did the GM pop changes come into this?

I wanted to know about the population cap in the 2.3 changelog but they explained it to me, and since it was distracting everyone from the main topic I erased that entry after I had it answered

Don't do that. That's really confusing for everyone
