	*'''Death Korps of Krieg:''' Troopers that lack heavy weapons aside from the Sniper Rifle, but can triple-up on special weapons by replacing their Vox dude with a plasma gun dude (who dual wields a plasma gun and a lasgun, for some reason); their Sergeants can carry bolters, if you want to count those as special weapons. Uniquely, these guys are a bit masochistic, getting +1 to hit if they lose any models and +1 to wound if they're below half-strength.		*'''Death Korps of Krieg:''' Troopers that lack heavy weapons aside from the Sniper Rifle, but can triple-up on special weapons by replacing their Vox dude with a plasma gun dude (who dual wields a plasma gun and a lasgun, for some reason); their Sergeants can carry bolters, if you want to count those as special weapons.

1d4chan>Stephenlucas600: /* Battleline */ in the future, if you see a RAW FAIL, confine it to its own bullet points instead of the main Description. When the erratas do come out, its annoying having to rerwite the paragraph to take out the then none applicable comments.
