A question about the DKoK

Recommended Posts

Hello there, the Death Korps of Krieg are by far my favorite regiment of the Imperial Guard but I have a few questions about their regiments heraldic colours (and those of other regiments btw). We usually see the DKoK in dark-brown/black trenchcoats, but is this an absolute norm for all the death korps companies or is it known if other companies wear dark-red, blue, green, etc, instead of the usual colours?

I read Dead Men Walking recently and it says that "few Death Korps regiments chose any colour other than grey or black" (p. 17-18). In Imperial Armour 12 all the regiments are confined to these colours although I don't have my copy with me at the moment to confirm whether it explicitly says anything. Given the way DKoK are, black and grey seem most fitting -- they don't want to distinguish themselves -- but the fluff leaves it open for other colours. I couldn't see dark red, but dark green yes and a military shade of dark blue maybe.
