Jetpacks, Whats That?

Dieper III is a Extremely mountainous world (like, a whole lot of mountains) and thats why the imperial guard needed soldiers that know no fear of extreme heights and also have balls of steel, enter the Dieprian Mountain Men.

Little is known about this regiment in imperial records other than the Emperor himself named the regiment after he set foot on the planet sometime before the Great Crusade, the Dieprians are specialized in alpine and mountain warfare they are commited to safeguard their home planet forever, not taking part in any major conflicts (although, they maybe some little exceptions), their fighting style is based in high altitude ambushes using Valkyries (a lot of valkyries) at extreme heights.

History

The Dieprian Mountain Men were first mentioned in the 3rd Edition Imperial Guard 1st Codex (page 28) and ever since then they havent been mentioned ever again.

Fall of Dieper III

Unfortunately, Dieper III was conquered by the Tau led by Commander Shadowsun, Dieper III (now renamed to il'Wolaho) is now under Tau Control, and the Dieprian Mountain Men as a regiment, no longer exists.

Inspiration

The Dieprian Mountain Men seems to have been based on the historical Alpini Corps of the Italian Army founded in 1876 and later participated in the First and Second World War.
