Totenkopfverbande in english literally means Death's Head Group. They were molded from 1934 onward by Theodor Eicke, who instituted the wearing, on the right collar of the guards' uniforms, of the Totenkopf (death's head) symbol, from which they took their name. He wanted the Totenkopfverbande to be an elite unit within the elite SS. Basically they were the best the german military had to offer. These Elite units were from prison guard to be the best trained soilders in the german military. Soldiers endured “grueling exercises continued seven days a week from dawn to dusk” . Eicke’s foremost goal with this harsh training was to teach the SS soldier how to handle himself and his weapons in every possible battle situation, thereby providing the soldiers with the materials, knowledge and skill to become an elite member of the SS. In addition, Eicke tried to instill in them the reason and drive to fight until the enemy was annihilated. Thus, Eicke weeded out undesirables or inferior soldiers from his desired elite Totenkopfdivision.The major factor contributing to the division’s success in the face of such overwhelming odds was undoubtedly the fighting quality of the individual Totenkopf soldier.The long periods of strenuous training and physical conditioning, and the intensive cultivation of elitism had produced an SS fighting man superbly suited for the unique rigors of the Russian War”.Thus, Eicke's devotion of time and energy succeeded in transforming the Totenkopfdivision into an elite division that retained both its fighting spirit and combat effectiveness in defeats as well as victory, and by its utterly ruthless behavior in the execution of military tasks against enemy soldiers. .
I realize everyone reading this and contemplating joining this DarkThrone alliance may not have racially baised veiws. In no way does this alliance offically endorse hate of any culture. This alliance is patterned after these elite german mitary units because they had qualities that all DarkThrone players can respect if not appriciate. These soliders were ruthless,vindictive,and very protective of thier own. In this alliance these traits are good things. We take care of our members and aid our allies. We are ruthless and vindictive in attacking those who challange us. All of this is to help our members move up in the DarkThrone ranks.
We gladly welcome all races to join our alliance.
