Suurinosa tiedosta löytyy CoD codexista ja GeeWeen saitilta...

Thanks to the inhospitable climate of Vostroya, the Firstborn are trained in the most adverse of conditions. Amidst the jutting skeletal spars of half-collapsed warehouses, the wind howling along rust-pocked alleyways, the Firstborn learn the skills of close-quarter combat and strict firing drills. Some do not survive such a harsh regime, but those that do are proud to be counted amongst the hardiest fighters in the Imperial Guard. Their ancient pact drives them onwards, instilling them with a stubbornness, courage and fortitude rarely seen outside the Adeptus Astartes.

The Vostroyans reserve a disdain for those Imperial Guard regiments they perceive to be less devoted than themselves, although that can sometimes include a great many of their allies. But should the Vostroyans' respect be gained, they are comrades anyone would be proud to have.

Vostoyat ovat oikeasti eräitä kovimmista kaarteista mitä on. Eivät massalukuisia, mutta veteraanien tasoa. Arkkivihollisina käsittääkseni pääosin Tau, ja suurin osa operaointi alueesta käsittää kaupungit, ja kotiplaneetan hivecityjen hyiset rauniokadut.

Ja näin kirjoittelee Wikipedia:

The world of Vostroya was originally a mere forge world on the outskirts of the Imperium. It is ruled by a committee called the Techtriarchs, a blend of Adeptus Mechanicus administrators and traditional Imperial government. The people of Vostroya pledged their loyalty to the Adeptus Mechanicus and strived to meet its production quotas.

This devotion to their factory production, however, would be their downfall. During the Horus Heresy the Imperium requested that Vostroya shift its efforts from production to putting its full military weight into the path of Horus's forces. The Techtriarchs, believing that such an action would harm their production of materials for the war effort, refused the request. After the Heresy, the Imperium dispatched Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the Ultramarines, to bring the Vostroyans to judgment for their refusal to follow Imperial orders.

The Techtriarchs, empowered by the people of Vostroya to negotiate penance for their disloyalty, agreed to the atonement set down by Guilliman. They were to enter the first born of every Vostroyan family into Vostroya's regiments of Imperial Guard.

While Imperial Guard regiments are usually raised en masse, the Vostroyan Firstborn regiments are steadily reinforced by new recruits, ensuring a high concentration of veteran soldiers who assist in the recruits' training. The Vostroyans pride themselves on the fact that the Firstborn regiments have existed unbroken since their first creation 10,000 years prior.

Each Vostroyan worker is required to set aside one hour for every ten working hours to the creation of weaponry for their kin's military efforts. As the Vostroyans see their soldiers as their redemption in the eyes of the Emperor, each weapon is hand-crafted to the highest standard of quality. The resulting weapons, with hand-crafted wooden stocks and inlaid detail, are distinct from the bulk-manufactured weapons of other Imperial regiments.

The Vostroyan miniature range was released in May and June of 2006, as the Vostroyans were to play a prominent role in the 2006 Games Workshop Worldwide Campaign, "The Fall of Medusa V". The design of the army is heavily influenced by 18th century soldiers, in particular the Cossacks of Russia.

Toisinsanoen Vostroyan sodankäynti on GeeWeen fluffissa yhtä suurta Stalingradia.

Sekoitatko nyt Vostroyaneihin Death Korps of Kriegit?

[vompovompatti]

Kriegit ovat enemmän ww1, eivätkä stalingrad.
Kaivavat juoksuhaudat ja laittavat piikkilangat ja siinä sitten ollaan. Jos hyökätään niin ainut oikea tapa on rintamahyökkäys.

Minäkun luulin, että Kriegit kävivät jatkuvaa kaupunkisotaa kotiplaneetallaan.

Minäkun luulin, että Kriegit kävivät jatkuvaa kaupunkisotaa kotiplaneetallaan.

Krieg on pääasiassa autiomaata satunnaisilla kaupungin raunioilla, muutama korjauksen alaisena olevaa lukuunottamana, koska krieg teki syntiä heresyn hetkinä ja osa sen armeijasta kääntyi kaaoksen puolelle. Tämä nitistettiin panssarein, mutta harhaoppisuuden riskiä pidettiin niin suurena, että kiertoradalta planeetta pommitettiin ydinasein, mikä johti lämpötilan nousuun ja valon vähyyteen, ja sätteilyjen&myrkkykaasujen vuoksi kriegläisillä on kaasunaamarit.

Harhaoppisia juoksentelee yhä satunnaisesti nurkissa, mutta örkit ovat se suurin syy asemasotaan.
