      "Attention Kriegmen!" The Lord Command knows how sad we are at the lack of daily human wave mass infantry attacks through No Man's Land into enemy positions where we are all cut down in bloody waves of gore. So too make it up to us we are now going to dig kilometers into the ground and then in deep dark tunnels, tunnel our way to enemy lines. We will be forced to dig by hand and work for months in the airless dark, in hellish heat, where we might be buried alive or drowned, either way slowly suffocating to death alone in the dark. Before getting a chance to be torn apart alive by ravenous Heretics who drink our blood and eat our intestines while we watch and take our last agonizing breaths trying to claw our own eye's at the horrors we will witness in our last moments.

    2. Also for *Imperium of Man.*
    3. They like to fight.

    Kagori: What if I were to tell you that I know of a way to make digging trenches much, much more painful and agonizing??
    Krieg: That sounds interesting sir, when do we start??
    Kagori: Soon, but I must warn you that you will suffer greatly and may die horribly in a number of ways.
    Krieg: Sounds good to me sir. *Grabs entrenching tool*

The Emperor introduces the gunner to a small group of men wearing archaic flight-crew jackets and uniforms, with unit badges showing a winged '8' in gold, on a blue field.

    If anyone is interested in seeing how these tunnels would be like in real life, the massive mining complex underneath the Swedish city of Kiruna is a good example. If I remember correctly, it's one of the worlds most wide-spanning mining network, there's quite a few miles of tunnel that go quite deep underground. The tunnels themselves are also quite massive, large enough to allow massive dump-trucks to drive around in them.

    I remember watching a ww1 movie (don't know if this is true) where a English commander was stuck in his trench's an was given to take the enemy trench, But nothing worked it was evenly matched. One day a soldier that was a miner was talking of home an the commander heard and later learned that his company had a lot of seasoned miners, the CO had an idea but it was costly in man power an firepower. Our CO informed his superior that his plan was to dig deep tunnels under an along the German trench's (20km to 50km i think) and place explosives.
    As the digging went on more artillery are moved, aimed and increased fire on the Germans and to our CO surprised more soldier had been moved to reinforced, this was now a big push. The German CO saw these troops and weapon (but not the tunnels) and knew the British where going to launch a huge assault so called for aid to his superiors and he was reinforce with MORE troops.
    After about a 4 months the tunnels where finished and troops in place British 130,000 strong, The Germans 190,000 strong. near 3x the soldiers 4 months earlier. Our CO ordered for the explosives to be light an after a moment the German trenches erupted in dirty, the German command was shattered, AN the British CO ordered a mass charge ALL Infertry and (early) Tanks are to rush the enemy trenches. The German troops where overwhelmed an the 190,000 German soldiers only 50,000 remained the British soldier that survived 115,000.

    Someone has certainly been doing their reading on offensive mining in WW1 (the pinnacle of this form of warfare)! However from a WW1 point of view the engineers of both sides are guilty of criminal negligence for not getting started on both offensive and defensive tunnels right from the start of the siege
    NB: *defensive* mining involves digging tunnels to intercept and destroy enemy tunnels before they get close enough to set charges under your own line.
