Genestealers. Nah. That's what happens when the wifi signal drops. Air conditioner is a full on Demonic incursion . Probably by Slaaneshi forces becaus eyou know how Slaanesh loves violent non-consensual incursions.
It doesn't effect them combat wise, but the emotional damage does add up over time. They probably have minor stress related health issues other chapters don't have to deal with.
@@akumashikikan They're a traitor legion, but they operate mostly using stealth and infiltration, usually disguising themselves as others. If course, because they are so deceptive, no one knows their true motives, or even the status of their Primarch
Honestly, I think that the Lamenters, despite their loyalty and all, should be excessively paranoid like Tragos. They've all been through bullshit mission after bullshit mission which has nearly rendered them extinct. You'd expect them to be, at the very least, somewhat "jumpy" or whatever the Astartes equivalent is because they'd always expect something to go wrong.
What's sad about that is being that paranoid is what keeps you alive, Clapius Cain books taught me that if something isn't going wrong, your just not looking in the right direction.
Its said that after getting their Primaris reinforcments they are being very careful around allies and only contacting when they have to. Its possible that GW is not trying to make them paranoid after everything they been through.
And at this very day, Tragos would become the patron saint of the Lamenters. He and his squad, living legends, walking amongst them, inspiring hope and determination.
I guess this actually a pretty good representation of what it is like to live with severe trauma. You just know something is wrong, you just don't know *what* .
I think of it as “ sure there’s always a shark behind us, or something else just as likely to kills us, but that’s probably miles away and sharks don’t have legs… yet.”
Damn, yeah that's a pretty good description of what it's like. You move from one anxiety-inducing issue to the next. There's no peace, only the anxious anticipation of the next problem.
“Okay, now this is going to sound weird but send a tech marine or tech priest and do a sweep of environmental and ventilation systems.” -tragos probably
And so we close the tale of how Honored Battle-Brother Tragos helped his unwary brothers aboard their battle-barge discover a small mechanical fault in the air recycling system that would've (if left unattended) caused a catastrophic chain reaction leading all the way to the reactor core. To quote the venerable terminator's words of wisdom after being informed of his great deed: "I FUCKING TOLD YOU SO!"
The way he worded the air conditioning implies he knows exactly what's happening because its happened before. There's Xenos in the vents and they broke the AC on their way in.
I like to Imagine Tragos being the very few Lamenters that survived, and his New Brothers are Primaris not knowing their tramatic History of "Something going horribly Horribly wrong". Like the fact that his Com Officer not having a panic attack at the fact that EVERYTHING Went Really well.
Primaris Comms Officer: do you need to see the Chaplain for your stress? Primaris Terminator: I can guarantee you he's just as paranoid and stressed as the rest of us.
@@chaosinc.382 The Chaplain has a sermon going on asking for everyone not to die this time around even though exactly what's going to happen. Oh, and the Techmarine is dumping as much explosives as he can into the lower decks just in case.

@@iharpo9292 honestly the funniest and saddest Lamenter is a Dreadnought that survived the Penance Crusade. He became a part of the Deathwatch and is named Chryon. He’s convinced he’s the last of the Lamenters even though that’s not remotely true but no one can convince him otherwise. He’s wracked by survivor’s guilt and spirals often because of it however plenty of the Deathwatch treat him like a lovable grumpy old man.
The ending may sound comical, untill you realize that his next weeks are spent in a tight room with several other sweaty 200kg guys training constantly
Shutting down air conditioning is actually one of the many signs to know genestealers are onboard. Thats why he is reaction is over the top. It means they didnt actually succeed and the Genestealers actually managed to get in.
This is like when a child who has only known suffering is looked after by a kind guardian for the first time. All their life they grew accustomed to the suffering and saw it as normal, so the first day they realise their whole life has been different from everyone else, only then do understand just how much pain they have been in.
that actually manifests as "fearful attachment style" and it's exactly as descrbed here really. the constant abuse causes them to not be able to wrap their head around any form of uncoditianal affection and they usually react violently to people trying to get close to them :(
"Battle Brother, we have tasked the Lamenters to undergo another really dangerous and possibly impossible mission." "Hmmmm... You know what, Battle Brother? I'm feeling benevolent today. Send the Marines Malevolent instead."
The Lamenters volunteered, when they heard that there were innocent civilians in the battle area, and they rather die (horribel) then let the Marines Malevolent come close to them.
Theory 1: They are in the spaceship, and they have to travel a long way in hot and humid ship full of sweaty men. Theory 2: Genestealer infiltrate the ship, and they prepare an ambush through the air ventilation system.
It is actually scary when a Lamenters mission goes extremely well, no casualty? No third parties? No ship malfunctions? Is it just because the Emperor has now blessed them, or is it because Chaos has given them their blessings? You never know, maybe the Deceiver is behind all of this
No, what makes them sweat is because this has HAPPENED before. They have had a run of good luck that only ever leads to horrible consequences. The last time they had, to my knowledge, the longest run of relatively good luck, it was when they were among two other Space Marine Chapters that actually accepted them, treated them with respect, and fought beside them and helped them to the point it was one of the best times in the chapter. One of those was the Astral Claws Chapter...and then the Badab Wars happened.

Wait, I never thought about that before. How DO spacecraft deal with heat? I'm imagining conducting as much heat as possible into a smallish object and firing it into space every so often. That'd be fun on Chaos ships. "It's getting too damn hot in here! Throw another bootlicker on the heat exporter!"
@bluegum6438 actual answer? Radiators. Direct all your hot coolant into them, and while slow, they will slowly allow heat to dissipate, and recycle your coolant. If in extreme, dump the hot coolant to temporarily ease the load in the system, and hope you have enough spare to replace it.
Really cool idea for a book a group of lamenters stuck on a rogue trader ship suddenly hear the crew talk about ventilation error and the lamenters immediately suspect genestealers and go on a alien style hunt through the ship
"The tragedy chases us. We go to help one of the few allies that doesn't think us cursed? Tragedy. We go to rescue civilians in Slaughterhouse? Tragedy. We do a warp jump? Tragedy. We now cleanse a genestealer nest? Well apparently almost nothing but I couldn't relax because I keep waiting for it."
You go camp on a cocked grenade if it is remotly possible to happen... Emperor will forgive you.

Despite his warning over 50 lamenters and 5 thousand menials fell repelling and exterminating the genestealer nest. With an additional 60 lamenters dying after Inquisitor dick von something stupid commanded a purge amounts the lamenters survivor's. For his efforts brother Tragos was awarded a position leading the newly rebuilding 6th company that was lost during the fighting. Overall low casualties.
@@ronaldthompson4989he mysteriously died honorable of course (cough he was shot in the back cough) ooh excuse me I haven't had my morning recaff so my throat is a bit scratchy
The Lamentors have a very sad and tragic history; if I was them I would be just as paranoid of bad things happening. Their chapter hasn't gone a single engagement without being cursed by unexplainable events. The morale damage a good day causes them must be insane; especially if it goes seemingly too well. I laughed my butt off at the AC; I live in Florida. If my fellow space marines said the AC went out here then I would be terrified too. Florida with No AC is a nightmare in 98+ with 90% humidity
"The air conditioning!" "Yes, the air conditioning. I don't see why- "The air conditioning specifically designed to filter out ork spores!" "since when was air conditioning designed to filter out ork spores? We don't have that kind of air conditioning. That makes no si-" *WWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGG!!!!!* "OK, we're back in my comfort zone."
Imagine the poor Primaris reinforcements trying to figure out just what exactly made an entire chapter of space marines jumpier than an inquisitor in a hive city😂
The last time the Lamenters had a good outcome, they were tricked into becoming traitors and almost fell to Chaos. The Astral Claws, the Executioners, and the Mantis Warriors led a rebellion during the Badab war and tricked them into helping.
This went back and forth SOOOOOO much between funny and sad. One minute I am laughing my ass off, next I am legitimately sorry for this dude's PTSD to then laughing my ass off yet again when he has a Vietnam flashback over the AC breaking.
To be fair nobody had thought it was possible for the teleportation system to mess up and send the space marine in the middle of an Orc WAGH three systems away. Thragos isn't paranoid because that would imply that nothing was after him.
Excelent brother, he noticed his brother was almost begging for a tragedy, gave him what he wanted to hear without lying or bending the truth, and successfully defused a possible panic attack.
For alpha legion, they are the hardest and easiest to infiltrate. Hard nearly all lamenter are on edge, and are running on blind faith at this point, and easiest due to there paranoia they can be guided to what results needed by the alpha legion.
Also they probably feel immensely bad for them just because of how unnaturally bad their luck is and how severe their PTSD is. Complex PTSD not the normal stuff because that would imply they didn’t literally have all their luck sucked out by Huron the tyrant of Badab.
At the End there Tragos was probably having Flash backs to when their Gellar Field Failed and they got sent to the warp. The air conditioning failed was the first sign.
@@Sorain1 I think the last infiltrator who did that ended up getting crushed by a Piano... And I do not mean a bone, leather and Schiew Piano, I mean the ones made out of wood, ivory and metal.
Honestly, knowing how utterly SHIT things can go for the Lamenters, Tragos being worried about the air conditioner failing could be justified, since for all any of them know it could mean that the OXYGEN GENERATOR is starting to go down. You know, the thing anyone who's not a full Astartes, cybered-up Techpriest or voidsman in fully-sealed suit needs to live aboard any Imperial spacecraft? So goodbye Chapter Serfs and any Neophytes that are aboard if that is indeed the case! They had a random unprecedented Drive Failure in Realspace before, don't try and tell me that a much more common spontaneous malfunction like that is beyond them. I think we know why Tragos has lived long enough to get Terminator Honors now.
I’d like a story about a Lamenter Veteran, like, a dude that’s SOMEHOW survived since their Founding. Yeah, it’d probably be depressing given that all his accounts would probably be him just borderline crying about his lost brothers, but, y’know. *_G R I M D A R K_*

The Lamenters really strike a cord with me, I can relate to they way they feel and the dissatisfaction in themselves.
It is said that one time a child hugged a Lamenter and the Lamenter hugged the child back, then the child turned into an eldritch horror from another universe and proceeded to slaughter the whole squad
Oh no. Space marines usually don't care a lot about how smelly they are, which is fine when the air conditioning works, but when it breaks down... Keep your helmets on and let them filter the air, cause it's gonna get stinky real soon.
Now I may not have it myself, but I think that this is what PTSD looks like from the outside. Paranoid, on edge, always thinking that something is going to go wrong when you turn the corner. Poor guys.
Everyone seems to think that he's just being paranoid and nothing is wrong, but the way he talks about the air conditioning says that he knows exactly what's wrong from that statement, and that it's certainly nothing to take lightly.
Considering the fact that their fighting GENESTEALERS you can expect at least one of them to board the ship without anyone realizing it and start a literal infestation
I’d like to imagine a situation where Ciaphas Cain is deployed with the Lamenters and after everything is finished Cain and the only surviving Lamenter share a bottle of amasec
Man this is some trauma right here, it's genuinely so sad to think he has lived through such constant loss, pain, suffering, warfare, and bloodshed as to be unable to comprehend a short fight says a lot about the suffering of even the strongest in the Warhammer universe, living short lives of strife followed by a bloody and meaningless death

I like to imagine the Primaris comforting their first born brothers from their paranoia.
It is not paranoia when it is True.
If only there were many first born left to comfort
Tagos is still uneased about how smoothly his first operation leading a squad of primaris marines to this day.
In fairness, heat is a massive issue with space travel so the air conditioning is slightly more of an issue than it seems
bro just open the windows, duh
Just fly when the sun is down.
Wait, I never thought about that before. How DO spacecraft deal with heat? I'm imagining conducting as much heat as possible into a smallish object and firing it into space every so often. That'd be fun on Chaos ships. "It's getting too damn hot in here! Throw another bootlicker on the heat exporter!"
@bluegum6438 actual answer? Radiators. Direct all your hot coolant into them, and while slow, they will slowly allow heat to dissipate, and recycle your coolant. If in extreme, dump the hot coolant to temporarily ease the load in the system, and hope you have enough spare to replace it.
Really cool idea for a book a group of lamenters stuck on a rogue trader ship suddenly hear the crew talk about ventilation error and the lamenters immediately suspect genestealers and go on a alien style hunt through the ship
Can't really blame him. If I had their luck I would be paranoid.
no mortal being wont be paranoid cuz of this
@@thealgorithmsentmehere5994 yeah because they'd be dead
Go ahead, have a perfectly fine mission as a Lamenter. No one will believe you.
~Maybe or maybe not Tzeentch
When your favorite side character trips all the Death Flags but hasn't died yet
PJ basically every mission.
Wrong. The luckiest lamenter is always the one that dies first.
Glory to the first man to die!
It’s like the death Korps of Krieg. Whoever gets mowed down with a machine gun gets the best life
Painfully accurate.
Lamenter visibly sweating
Command desperately trying to calm the dude down
Air Conditioning yelling 'Hydra Dominatus!'
We shot the air conditioning. Good times.
That reaction that reaction at 0:42 from brother tragos is so scared that my heart sunk from the genuine trauma
I can't really blame Tragos really. Things going super well for Lamenters always seems like the set up for their next tragedy.
que * Chaos Players grinning in Red Corsair *
"The tragedy chases us. We go to help one of the few allies that doesn't think us cursed? Tragedy. We go to rescue civilians in Slaughterhouse? Tragedy. We do a warp jump? Tragedy. We now cleanse a genestealer nest? Well apparently almost nothing but I couldn't relax because I keep waiting for it."
The reason Tragos’s mission went so well is that we know his name and thus he has plot armor.
I feel his horror, in this time of the year, having no AC is worse than being captured alive by the Dark Eldar.
You go camp on a cocked grenade if it is remotly possible to happen... Emperor will forgive you. Or you go to say hi to thre Dark Eldar with a timed explosive glued to the promethium tank of your flamethrower, at least you could take some of those a**holes out. Even some Chaos Daemons are better than them. They make Tyranids look fluffy.
it could also be an abominable intelligence
Living in the tropics, I agree it sucks balls when the humidity and the heat are against you.
@@gamechanger8908 I don't live there, but I do live in UK, and with the humidity here, when the temperature goes over 28-30 celcius, its not fun.
Thank god its only for 2-3 weeks every year
OH LET ME TELL YA ABOUT SUMMER 2024-
And it was then that brother tragos identified a genestesler infestation appon the lamenters main battle ship.
Despite his warning over 50 lamenters and 5 thousand menials fell repelling and exterminating the genestealer nest. With an additional 60 lamenters dying after Inquisitor dick von something stupid commanded a purge amounts the lamenters survivor's.
For his efforts brother Tragos was awarded a position leading the newly rebuilding 6th company that was lost during the fighting.
Overall low casualties.
Dick Von Something Stupid, ah yes, I know him well.
Calmest Lamenters Mission
@@ronaldthompson4989he mysteriously died honorable of course (cough he was shot in the back cough) ooh excuse me I haven't had my morning recaff so my throat is a bit scratchy
The "it must be Necrons than!" Really cracked me up and idk why XD
The Lamentors have a very sad and tragic history; if I was them I would be just as paranoid of bad things happening. Their chapter hasn't gone a single engagement without being cursed by unexplainable events.
The morale damage a good day causes them must be insane; especially if it goes seemingly too well.
I laughed my butt off at the AC; I live in Florida. If my fellow space marines said the AC went out here then I would be terrified too. Florida with No AC is a nightmare in 98+ with 90% humidity
Florida = of the disadvantages of the Southwest combined with all of those of the Midwest. No wonder so many of y’all are methheads.
I feel that man I used to live down there that was the one fear we had in my place
Dont fear the effects of the broken ac, fear what broke it and you have to fight of in that Environment.
Living in SEA it's the same when AC is broken.
The other implication is that something got into the vents and is blocking the air flow, or the Air Conditioner was destroyed by an infiltrator.
Tragos is carrying the Lamenters on his back, if they can calm him down theyll recover
"Every Victory has it's Price"
-Brother Tragos
Well said
"The air conditioning!"
"Yes, the air conditioning. I don't see why-
"The air conditioning specifically designed to filter out ork spores!"
"since when was air conditioning designed to filter out ork spores? We don't have that kind of air conditioning. That makes no si-"
*WWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGG!!!!!*
"OK, we're back in my comfort zone."
I just wanna give him a hug and tell him it's ok there's no Necrons or xenos or heretics around this chapter deserve a huge break
*Notices name* You'd just pull a Vulkan on them *Mutters with fear* You dont want to know what that is.. *Rubs back*
wait, close contact, HUGS?!?!?!? GENESTEALER!
Imagine the poor Primaris reinforcements trying to figure out just what exactly made an entire chapter of space marines jumpier than an inquisitor in a hive city😂
The Lamenter Terminator really loves his very enthusiastic walks.
bloody hell that's disturbingly depressing, can't even feel safe from a good outcome
That's the Lamenters for you!
If shit isn't fucked at the moment *it will be soon*
The last time the Lamenters had a good outcome, they were tricked into becoming traitors and almost fell to Chaos. The Astral Claws, the Executioners, and the Mantis Warriors led a rebellion during the Badab war and tricked them into helping.
I was expecting a haha funny joke but i ended up bursting into tears from lamenter PTSD
This went back and forth SOOOOOO much between funny and sad. One minute I am laughing my ass off, next I am legitimately sorry for this dude's PTSD to then laughing my ass off yet again when he has a Vietnam flashback over the AC breaking.
The mission: goes well
Lamenters: “wait, that’s illegal”
To be fair nobody had thought it was possible for the teleportation system to mess up and send the space marine in the middle of an Orc WAGH three systems away.
Thragos isn't paranoid because that would imply that nothing was after him.
This is just a calm before the storm, brother.
Excelent brother, he noticed his brother was almost begging for a tragedy, gave him what he wanted to hear without lying or bending the truth, and successfully defused a possible panic attack.
For alpha legion, they are the hardest and easiest to infiltrate. Hard nearly all lamenter are on edge, and are running on blind faith at this point, and easiest due to there paranoia they can be guided to what results needed by the alpha legion.
Also they probably feel immensely bad for them just because of how unnaturally bad their luck is and how severe their PTSD is. Complex PTSD not the normal stuff because that would imply they didn’t literally have all their luck sucked out by Huron the tyrant of Badab.
Didn't know Astartes can get severe forms of PTSD 😭, the Emperor should have said "And they shall know no depression".
This really kind of breaks my heart.
Poor big boy has never seen success, just failure after failure, suffering from PTSD when things go well...
At the End there Tragos was probably having Flash backs to when their Gellar Field Failed and they got sent to the warp. The air conditioning failed was the first sign.
At first It was funny then it just got sad, but then they got funny again.
The Luckiest Lamenter is either incredibly paranoid, or a member of the Alpha Legion.
...
Hydra Dominatus.
Do you think it's possible to infiltrate them so well that the 'curse' rubs off on you?
@@Sorain1 I think the last infiltrator who did that ended up getting crushed by a Piano... And I do not mean a bone, leather and Schiew Piano, I mean the ones made out of wood, ivory and metal.
Honestly, knowing how utterly SHIT things can go for the Lamenters, Tragos being worried about the air conditioner failing could be justified, since for all any of them know it could mean that the OXYGEN GENERATOR is starting to go down. You know, the thing anyone who's not a full Astartes, cybered-up Techpriest or voidsman in fully-sealed suit needs to live aboard any Imperial spacecraft? So goodbye Chapter Serfs and any Neophytes that are aboard if that is indeed the case! They had a random unprecedented Drive Failure in Realspace before, don't try and tell me that a much more common spontaneous malfunction like that is beyond them.
I think we know why Tragos has lived long enough to get Terminator Honors now.
I’d like a story about a Lamenter Veteran, like, a dude that’s SOMEHOW survived since their Founding. Yeah, it’d probably be depressing given that all his accounts would probably be him just borderline crying about his lost brothers, but, y’know. *_G R I M D A R K_*
I mean, we've been around for 3,000 cruel years, and even the eldest non-dreadnought marine at the moment is Commander Dante at 1,500 years or so.
@@theoverpreparerlamenters3r436 My sincerest hopes go to you, battle cousin, emperor be with you, and thank you for your sacrifice(s)
@@theoverpreparerlamenters3r436 Dante is from the Horus Heresy Era. So, 10k years. Unless there's a Dante in the Lamenters, in which case sweet merciful Emperor he could write a book on 'everything that can and will go wrong'.
@@Sorain1 Dante isn't from the Heresy era. One of the Space Wolves dreadnoughts is. Dante is about 1500 years old and has been in command for a little over 1000.
Lamenters can have a little win, as a treat
Damn, they beat themselves up when they succeed but do not believe the deserve praise, they’re depressed that they can’t do more, and they’re so paranoid that nothing went wrong it almost brings it into being. The Lamenters really strike a cord with me, I can relate to they way they feel and the dissatisfaction in themselves.
"THEY'RE IN THE WALLS DAMN YOU!"
"Brother, calm down!"
"COMBAT ALERT! CREW PREPER TO REPEL HOSTAL INFILTRATION!
"They are my Space Marines and they don't know what to fear!"
It is said that one time a child hugged a Lamenter and the Lamenter hugged the child back, then the child turned into an eldritch horror from another universe and proceeded to slaughter the whole squad
Plottwist: el niño era un humano comun hasta que el lamentador lo abrazo
Tragos knows that a lack of air con indicates either power failures in ventilation or that genestealers or equivalent are in the vents.
Or a gellar field failure apparently from what I've seen in some other comments, which actually happened to the Lamentors. Because why not I guess
Oh no. Space marines usually don't care a lot about how smelly they are, which is fine when the air conditioning works, but when it breaks down... Keep your helmets on and let them filter the air, cause it's gonna get stinky real soon.
That's not the issue..... Gene Stealers like to hide in ventilation
@@Uniformtree000 pfft, that's easily solved *laughs* *in* *flamer*

@@Uniformtree000 then we'll just vent some hot steam. Everyone put on your suits.
Narrator: It wasn't the air conditioning shutting down, it was the life support systems.
I legitimately just wanted to give him a hug and say that it's all okay.
Paranoid after all the shit the lamentérs get.
for then most be weird to be in a nice situation.
Actual video of me when I immediately understand a new concept that’s being shown to me for the first time.
The air conditioning broke because a new eye of terror was opening underneath the command deck. Lamenter sense is never wrong.
The first time I played Deathwatch I made a Lamenter. Our squad got wiped out in a single round
Sounds about right
Lore Accurate then!
It was like "Man, I feel bad for them" and then it went "Ah, there's the joke of the vid"
Yeah...
But a busted air conditioner could mean something is blocking the vents...
Like genestealers...
Or something Nurgle-y
"Every once in a while, declare peace. It confuses the hell out of your enemies." - Tzeentch, probably.
Turns of his farther was a tech priest who built that air conditioning unit and that was the last thing left of his farther
Now I may not have it myself, but I think that this is what PTSD looks like from the outside.
Paranoid, on edge, always thinking that something is going to go wrong when you turn the corner. Poor guys.
He needs a serious session of hugs and cookies with the nearest Salamander squad.
Tzeench probably meddled with this mission probably just get a kick out of their reaction to having nothing actually go wrong for once
Everyone seems to think that he's just being paranoid and nothing is wrong, but the way he talks about the air conditioning says that he knows exactly what's wrong from that statement, and that it's certainly nothing to take lightly.
Something blocking the vents about to eat the crew, or possibly an electrical short thats gonna domino into a reactor explosion
@@ronaldthompson4989 Drive failure.
Bro Tragos behaving like a Dark Angel with that paranoia lmao.
Awwwwe Brother Tragos has PTSD :((
I really like this artwork, I think a Mini based on this is in order!
The space marine next to him: "better the AC then Literally anything else in this universe..." (Wipes head with handkerchief out of relief)
The Lamenters are really the best guys with the worst luck around
I can't even make fun of him. With all the crazy torture and all the other crap the lamenters go through.
Welp, ultra-paranoid Lamenter is my next 40k TTRP character
Poor Lamenters, they were left traumatized for life. I hope your chapter can recover.
Man this went from really tense and sade to kinda funny but still sad
It's genuinely sad, Lamenters have suffered so much for so long that a single day of peace is a bad omen.
"WAIT ! Why hasn't the bad happened yet?"
"Ice cream broke."
"OH NO ! This is worse !"
Considering the fact that their fighting GENESTEALERS you can expect at least one of them to board the ship without anyone realizing it and start a literal infestation
Little did he know the Gene stealer cult was the only reason the rival chaos cult couldn’t open a warp gate.
I’d like to imagine a situation where Ciaphas Cain is deployed with the Lamenters and after everything is finished Cain and the only surviving Lamenter share a bottle of amasec
If youve been a 40k fan for a while, you know what no air conditioning means....nice reference!
Let me guess: genestealers or nurgle.
Man this is some trauma right here, it's genuinely so sad to think he has lived through such constant loss, pain, suffering, warfare, and bloodshed as to be unable to comprehend a short fight says a lot about the suffering of even the strongest in the Warhammer universe, living short lives of strife followed by a bloody and meaningless death
He was right to be paranoid about the AC. The genestealers were in the fucking vents
