Rumor has it that the reason the Angry Marines are so angry is because long ago they foresaw the fate of the Lamenters and upon seeing what this universe did to legitimately good and nice people filled them with incalculable rage.
that would be amazing if true. they are the stoic... the angry marines full of righteous anger at this bullcrap the truly good suffer.
someday the rage of the angry marines will be so much that they will force there way into canon and fix some FUCKING problems
I heard this is just part of the reason the Angry Marines are so mad. Actually hearing the Pretty Marines got a song is 50 percent the reason they are LIVID. The last 25 percent is unknown that only the emperor knows (guy still calls himself a man with godlike powers my ass).
The real reason the dark angels are called the unforgiven is because they let the lamenters die
I mean, they do wear yellow as well
Vulkan: "I heev only known thees nephews of mine for 3 minutes, but if ANYTHEENG happened to them I would kill everyone on thees spessship and then myself."
Tzeench: Kills marines anyway using badluck.
Vulkan: *cracking knuckles* I tried to warn you NOT friend squid monster.

@@lucareali7645 I want a book that says that the only reason Vulcan is gone is to slay tzeench for the lamenters and magnus and all he screwed over
@@seanjohnson5706 I unexpectedly agree. I did not know this was a thing I wanted in my life.
Too bad everything happends to them.
I think the part of this song that gets me the most, no matter how many times I listen, is "From far behind me I see the greatest of sights; the herd we held, slipped away from the onslaught"
The simple knowledge that his men did not die in vain. And not to hold some grand fort, or to spit in the eye of one of the Chaos gods. But to ensure a small cadre of innocent civilians did not have to suffer the same fate he and his men have doomed themselves to by choosing to stay and fight a battle they knew they could not win. That simple transport, bearing an impossibly insignificant number of civilians, is the greatest thing he has ever seen.
_THAT_ is the kind of selflessness and nobility all Astartes should aspire to.
"Please use the time that we bought"
legit chocking back tears...
And not to mention he then says “spurned by the lives that we saved let out a cry, there’s not an ounce of regret, I’m overwhelmed with pride” showing that he has accepted his fate but doesn’t care as the civilians escaped and that was all that matter. Fucking legends
@@obamaprism4168 the lamenters are one of the few space marine chapters i trully respect, along with the salabros, wolves and the blood angels. The lamenters were the only sanguinious successor who dint made to baal in time, and they felt soo much shame that Dante himself had to told them it was fine since they were dealing with a shitload of shit aswell
@@midrovar5811 You aren't the only one to respect them. Guilliman sent Primaris Marines to every chapter, but he did one thing before that... he used Primaris Marines to bring the Lamenters back to full strength. Literally the first time they have been at full strength in thousands of years!
To paraphrase, "We cannot let the loyal sons of my brother fade away."
@@obamaprism4168 Perhaps it's just me, but I can't help but feel that his brothers all felt the same: Not an ounce of regret in sacrificing themselves for the civilians, hence being overwhelmed with pride.
Sanguinius sons wearing Rogal Dorn colors with the empathy of Vulkan...
How come nobody gave them their best Astartes Chapter medal yet ?!
And the humility of Corax.
They tried once, but the Lamenters refused it, because the battle for which that medal was awarded, the Lamenters saved half a million civilians out of 10 million iirc. So they felt like they failed and refused the honors.
@@CataStudies even sadder, the people who died did it because they decided that for all the lamenters did, they should escape
@@CataStudies Also the chapter took offense to that, thou to be fair the Lamenters should have accept it since the medal was a relic that would have aided them.
@@peterwhite6415 It was the ultramarines and I think it was a holy shield(I forgot how that shit is called). Man I need to reread some lore
When the Emperor created his space marines he declared that they would be his "Bulwark against Terror" and the "Defenders of Humanity". The Lamenters are one of the few who embody this idea in each and every battle they fight. The Emperor and Sanguinius would be proud
The blood of Sanguinius runs true in their veins.
@@loranttoth5897 He did say "one of the few", Salamanders gotta be included in that few

And then there is these assholes: *Points to Minotaurs and Marines Malevolent*

Yet still they stand.

@@robertspeedwagon982 Other despised Blood chapters that come to mind are the Knights of Blood, and Angels Vermilion. The Lamenters are hated mostly for their luck, and the cursed founding, sadly.
Gets tricked in to fighting the imperium. Is punished and forgiven.
Gets abandoned by ass hat chapters. Is saved and scorned for it.
Survives a punishment crusade with low numbers. Runs in to the fuckin nids and is assumed dead.
Gets lost in the warp and reappears. Entire chapter is almost sentenced to death.
Even after all of this BS they stayed true and loyal to the emperor.

@@GeraltofRivia22 it's said that day the galaxies warp storms grew 3 sizes that day
I see something Khorny in likes section.
I like to imagine that during this battle, a imperial guard, last of his unit is there, aiding civilians. He is bitter, lost all willingness to fight anymore. He plans to bail, to hide in a fringe world or something far away from prying eyes and dodge having to get stuck in another unit. The lamenters came, as he scuffs at their efforts. But as he saw, they had no intention to retreat. They had no intention to turn the battle. Just to buy time, even as it becomes clear they will not live through this.
And he continues mulling it over. "Its futile" he thinks, "Its a pointless endeavor." But as he watches their numbers drain, as the last of the civilians run in to the ship, he begins to feel something inspire him. It is at the pivotal moment, he spots a mother separated from her child as the stray fire stars to find their location. In that moment, the Lamenters last stand had inspired him, and in that moment he banished all dark thoughts, and ran to save her. Shots fly around him as he gets the child, and running back to the ship, yelling for them to start closing the door and take off as he makes it at the last moment. He watches the Lamenters let out their cry, and in that moment, he realized that their cause was not futile after all. He would report back, undoubtly transferred to a new unit. But this time, he feels like he owed it to the brave space marines who saved not just his but the civilians lives, thinking back to their last cry heard over the intercom.
"For Those We Cherish, we die in glory!"

It is said, the Adeptus Astardes are the Emperor's fist. But while many chapters claim to specifically be his outstretched middle finger, the Lamenters are the only ones wanting to be his encouragingly lifted thumb.
No, they are the open palm extended towards you to lift you up.
Picture this:
A massive co-operative mode of a 100 man team against AI enemies. The goal is to protect the evacuation ships long enough for them all the leave. As the bulk of the enemy forces take over the city, more of them find their way to the space port. As the final shuttle is readying to leave, a healthbar appears at the top of the screen: a monstrous horror of xenos technology, foul Warp-wrought machines, or an organic nightmare. The goal is clear: keep THAT away from the shuttle. With respawns de-activated, only your faith and ferocity stand between victory and defeat.
For the Emperor.

Ah, the Lamenters... Screwed over by their own allies time and time again, fighting the lost battles time and time again, perpetually on the brink of destruction, yet still fighting for the common people of the Imperium against all odds with unyielding determination that possibly exceeds even Imperial Fists. One of the few chapters that geniuenly care for civilian lives and would risk everything to save them despite tactical and strategic issues caused.
The Glorious Hawkboy would weep from pride and joy if he learned he has such successors.
Yeah, we’ve gotten the chapter into tatters from our determination, but we didn’t get sent on a penitent crusade and run into a bloody tendril of the devourer
For Those We Cherish, We Die In Glory.
Even Vulkan would be most proud to see such warriors fight for the people of the Imperium.
@@loranttoth5897 Well, where would you like to start? Perhaps the most famous example? During Abaaddon's 9th Black Crusade, the Lamenters were tasked with defending the Hive World of Corilla, along with the Mortifactors chapter (a highly religious chapter, who are descendants of the Ultramarines, incidentally).
Unfortunately, upon learning that they would be sharing a battlefield with the Lamenters (one of the infamous 'Cursed Founding') the Mortifactors promptly abandoned the planet, as they considered the Lamenters to be "Sinners in Waiting", solely due to being from the 21st Founding- as such, the Lamenters had to hold the planet pretty much by themselves (along with a few Guard regiments and the like) for six solar weeks against a significantly sized Chaos Force, being whittled down to about 200 battle-brothers before they were relieved by a force made from both the White Scars and the Ultramarines.
@@TallboyDave Not to mention that the one chapter that treated them decently, the Astral Claws, turned traitor and tricked the Lamenters into fighting alongside them, which is what had them sent on a Penitent Crusade...at which point they blundered into the path of Hive Fleet Kraken.

my headcannon of when the Lamenters got their Primaris reinforcements:
One by one the remaining Astartes of the Lamenters are brought to a wall by the custodes, confused as to what is going on as no weapons were raised. The air was filled with tension as the brothers stood side by side, proud sons of Sanguinius waiting to hear if they were to be another chapter just wiped from existence or if there was something greater planned for them. The large golden clad warriors of the custodes nodded to eachother before turning to their ship as the door fell open. Inside lay something that left the air somehow stiller than it had been before. Then out stepped the first of the new sons, the intercessors, the Primaris marines, adorned in the colors of the Lementers whom stood before them at the wall, unease filled them as they knew not whether these new generation marines were here to replace them, or join them. Suddenly as the Primaris filed out and row after row formed lines in front of their experienced, veteran, most honorable brothers. And one by one, each of the surviving Lamenters were of all things...hugged, a tight embrace from the new generation of sons to the older generation. The custodes, seeing their job done departed. Adding them to the list of chapters that accepted their new Primaris marines as the tension below began to ease. The Lamenters were once again at combat strengths not seen in many years... And there were citizens of the imperium in need, The emperor guide their blades.

corpse worhshipper. feasting on their geneseed isnt even worth considering.
Worst part of this is that the poor Lamenters were the first of their genestock to not have either the Red Thirst or the Black Rage.

@@imperialfist2304... It is not. During a Crusade of Penance, it is forbidden to recruit Space Marines. Even the loss of half a company is too much for a hive World, because you can still gather your forces to purge en masse.
F.:. Atsukuni Capitellum Magister This I am aware of, remember that time we were reduced to tatters? TWICE. For the lamenters it’s like that but every battle. But as of recently I heard that their crusade is over and they got Primaris reinforcements.
@@imperialfist2304 that's the point. The reason why BAngels are said to live long is, actually, their deadliness in melee. No opportunity for the ennemy to shoot or even ready itself and overwhelm them, that's how loyalist marines operate in melee, even the Black Templars, because they too use transports and drop pods.
But somehow, the BAngels gey nigh wiped out twice to serve as faire-valoir for the stealers and Tyranids.
The Lamenters ? They get killed easily in popculture and have been almost destroyed in the "lore". How long it takes to recruit a space marine ? Years are needed to make neophytes reach perfection but even so the Chapters can't have more neophytes than they have geneseeds in store. Make no mistake, Chapters that are actually good at attrition Warfare don't exist : they win with minimal or no losses at all or else they failed to apply the Codex Astartes to perfection.
A Penitent Crusade is meant to be long and dangerous. Three factors conclude to its fulfilment : victims (Marines and foes) and time. I don't remember when they started but if they ended with Guilliman sending "reinforcements", then, how convenient ! It's almost as if the Fluff had been bent at the biding of a certain organization marketing policy...
If there were ever a Chapter that would have made their Father proud, it's these guys.
FOR THOSE WE CHERISH, WE DIE IN GLORY!
This one was a tough song for me. A whole lot of bridges between my chest and head voice caused me some issues. But I can't really complain since going into higher registers than before was my idea; my request. I just wanted to break away from Gruff Lower Registers And Posh Accent, y'know?
But, like the Lamenters, String and I pushed on and got this song done! I'm a lot happier with some parts of this than I am with others, and there *were* a few takes that I recorded that I liked better than the final takes, but it still gives me the chills where it's supposed to, so I'm happy!
EDIT: I see all your encouraging comments, and I can't thank you enough. It really does help me feel better about my performance on this song to see how many people loved it!
You did well, Corgi! Thank you and String for this heartfelt song!
You have done our Chapter proud Corporal Corgi!
Excellent work, despite the struggles I believe this came out well and is one of your beet works. Keep up all the amazing work you do man!
Fitting, that you struggled with the song so much, much like the Lamenters in the lore.
The strain you put on yourself is evident in the song, and while it sounds jarring, it still works. All the more fitting, even, given the subject matter. A lot of people in the comments seem to agree with the gist of it sounding odd but still working.
However I feel this song has more potential to it.
I hope that one day it might be revisited and reworked.
As it stands now it captures the desperation in the face of dispair that the Lamenters suffer in a beautifully painful manner.
But I wish to see a version capturing the glory that they envision in their hearts as well.
Their ideals, the magnificence buried within the loss and foul luck, purified and brought to the fore.
Ay yo daddy corgi do you know when string's next song will be released
Well done! Very interesting contrast between your song here and your portrayals of inquisitors before. It really seems like you've captured the range of what humanity's really made of between the two roles...
Loss of Lamenters 9th company deemed insignificant.
Now THAT is some true heresy right here.
Id say it fits perfectly to Lamenters after all For those we cherish, we die in glory
100% correct.
The masculine urge to die in a final stand to protect civilians
The true perfect death!
1 thing survives a man his honor
"Make our deaths worth the price; please use the time that we bought!" They have no regrets, minutes away from complete decimation their only fear is that the civilians would still be too close to the battlefield after they die.
According to the artwork, the Lamentors didn't just hold the line, they manage to advance against the enemy
Tzneetch: Why won't you fools fall, I have thrown everything at you!
Lamenters: By our sacrifice we spit in your eye, by our honor we repudiate you, by our deaths we defy you. The emperor knows his own.

Good men die in droves to do the right thing, to save one more life, they commit the ultimate sacrifice for others.
And yet others die elsewhere, the galaxy is still doomed, and this sacrifice, while remembered, is insignificant.

@@Erraddo but this is the end times now everyone has something to lose even choas so now is the time of significance
Emperor: So who are these Lamenters I keep hearing about?
Kitten: Oh the Lamenters? They are a chapter who are descended from the blood angels.
Emperor: From my sweet boy senguiny.
Kitten: Y-yes. They are a bit of a.... well they are not exactly a very loved chapter. Rumors circulated around them have gone so out of hand it’s damaged their reputation among the other chapters. They believe they are cursed because they have had what you would call in your words my lord “extreme shit luck”. They have been decimated time and time again. It’s a miracle they even survived for so long.
Emperor: I don’t want any of that double standard bs from my other children who literally throw their own ships at their enemies just to get that kamikaze kill. *Had turn on eye camera film while banana head was speaking* looking at them right now and they just look like total lemon boys. Though seeing as their names are “Lemon-tors” makes sense.
Kitten: Yeah but here is the thing my lord. Despite the rumors of them being cursed they are one of the most kindest chapters in the imperium second only to the salamanders. They have been known to fly to isolated civilian colonies and fight till their dying breath that every civilian is evacuated from the xeno invaders.
Emperor: so the lemon boys are trying to make up for the rumors with their actions. Unsurprising. But not unappreciated.
Kitten: I agree my lord. There was one battle where they were left alone by another chapter called the “Mortifactors” during the 9th black crusade on corellia. Claiming that they don’t want to be anywhere near these “cursed” individuals.
Emperor: I’m gonna put a pin in that chapter topic for now and just say that sounds like a really fucking edgy chapter. Also. I understand that if the space marines value their life as I do not wish for any of them to die recklessly for me, Except maybe those fucking smurfs. But leaving another chapter of brothers alone to fight a whole crusade by themselves over some fucking bad luck is just fucking despicably cowardly. So what happened to the lemon boys?
Kitten: They fought like it was their last battle, making sure every civilian was safe. It was said that for every marine that died. A family was saved or an orphan, and 10 demons died with the said killed marine. It wasn’t until the white scars and the ultramarines came to save the day turning the tide.
Emperor: Because the only way to win a losing battle is to use cheats like the fucking smurfs do.
Kitten: After the battle only a hundred of the Lamenters were left, their entire chapter was there and they were devastated by the ensuing battle. They were soon to be called the “yellow pawns” as a reference to their check board on their shoulder pads and them of course being colored yellow.
Emperor: I gotta say them some ballsy pawns for fighting off those chaos spawns and heretics.
Kitten: Though after the battle they left the planet, but soon ended up being in a warp drift on their way home and didn’t appear till thousands of years later. Not only did they survive the warp fighting their whole way back tooth and nail. but they still had enough marines to rebuild their chapter to full strength.
Emperor: It’s as if these lemon boys are like the polar opposites of the smurfs. Instead of winning every battle without any casualties these marines nearly lose every battle with high as fuck casualties. Still I can not deny that they do a very good job at what they do and should say I am very proud of them trying so hard to prove them selves. Still I think they should be cut a break now. Because the way they literally sacrifice themselves for the imperium every battle is just fucking depressing. I want you to message their chapter master and tell them to recall all lemon boys. And instead have these Mortifuckers start doing their jobs till the lemon boys have proper time to rest and boost their stats and maybe even have some peace and quiet. See how they like it when being put on “baby protect and/or be killed” duty. And if any of them think of disobeying they will not only be threatened as a traitor of the whole of imperium but there' entire chapter will be excluded. I do not fucking care what they do before. They need to be punished for not only abandoning the people of me, but also being total pussies and leaving their own brothers to defend themselves.
Kitten: eerhmm my lord is that wise?
Emperor: I’m the mother fucking emperor. I have the will and authority. Besides, anyone who bullies my favorite son’s kids needs a royal spanking, and if the parents won’t do it then I fucking will.
Kitten: as you wish my lord.
Emperor: So, what happened after they came back from the warp?
Kitten: Oh boy. *nervous*

The Lamenters don’t weep for their own pain, but for the pain of every innocent hurt by this vengeful, hateful galaxy. They serve the Emperor and the Imperium, but chiefly they serve the people, never flinching in their dedication to safeguarding every man, woman, and child under their care. An Astartes may be worth a thousand men, but to them, a man is worth a thousand Lamenters.
@Druid of Scosglen There is a shining light of hope in the grim darkness of the forty-first millennium. It is the Lamenters Chapter of Space Marines. Sanguinius and the Emperor are proud of them.
i Kinda want a spacemarine-Esq game where you play as the lamenters. one where you are sent to hopeless battle after hopeless battle, trying to save as many civilians as possible, all while your comrades slowly die around you.... or maybe more like x-com, so when a character dies it actually hampers you moving forward, and it should be BRUTAL.... like your entire team can die at any moment kinda brutal. skillful play and sacrifices are the only way to succeed, and even if your entire team dies as long as the civies are safe you get your pyrrhic victory and the story moves on... hell even if you lose the story moves on, and changes based on the outcome. i'd want this game to hurt me mentally and emotionally. the sons of sanguinius are supposed to be beacons of hope and the lamenters personify this.... the only problem with this is if your guys are constantly dying... kinda hard to get attached to them... whiiiiich would lessen the emotional impact... *sigh*
A good campaign, good cinematic, and have a level where you play as a hopeless civilian rescue by them
You know haw in Xcom EU the game fudges dice in your favor? Jyst make the same game, retextured so you're marines flying about the galaxy, every mission is a terror mission, and the dice are fudged against you.
Or make a whole game but thats hard
They should make the game with difficulties.
If you beat it on easy, you get a different ending than the extra hard.
Or hey, if they ever make another game with Space Marines as the stars, make the Lamenters the "New Game+", another skin that makes the game way harder by throwing more enemies at you and making allies less supportive.
I think that'd be perfect for the Lamenters. Be the ultimate hard mode of a game.
NO I CAN'T EMOTIONALLY HANDLE NOBEL TEAM 40K EDITION! :'(
I'm mostly a fan of the Guard, but the Lamenters are definitely a chapter I respect A LOT.
Hell, I'd bet the Guard would actually end up WANTING to get into the meatgrinder with these wholesome boys; after all, a guardsman is only human, and it would be inhuman not to be swayed by their willingness to sacrifice themselves.
The Lamenters are the only space marine chapter with the "Guardsmen's standard issue steel balls"
I would love to see more stuff showing the guard having the marines' backs, and the marines have the Guards' backs.
@@nicholasboaz4218 Well, I know that a Space Wolf straight up punched a noble, in a room full of nobles, permanently maiming the guy for daring to badmouth the Cadian Guard after Cadia fell. Some Salamanders responded to similar badmouthing by straight up threatening to use a heavy flamer on them if they dare to speak a single word more.
An Imperial Fist straight up cut a guy in half where he stood for speaking badly about the Cadian's for failing to hold back the 13th crusade. This happened on Terra itself and it was a member of the High Lord's court but not a High Lord.
Those are the examples I remember and all were post Cadia. None of them were notable named marines either.
Most astartes would have buckled and crumbled against such a vile curse. The Lamenters embrace it and challenge it. They use their sacrifices to save lives no matter how small and insignificant. This is what differentiates loyalists from traitors. One understands they are mere tools.Shields for the imperium and embraces the fact. The other is unable to stomatch this reality desiring to be greater than a pawn in a checkboard.
>The other is unable to stomatch this reality desiring to be greater than a pawn in a checkboard
And not only that, but they also manage to choose the *worst* way to try to do it. Can't they try to leave the jurisdiction of Imperium WITHOUT immediately succumbing to Chaos? I, for one, would like to see renegade non-Chaos chapter.
@@caav56 It's their lust for power and achievement. Every chapter who turns traitor 99.9% of the time do it for themselves. Selfish bastards that they are. That's why they fall to Chaos.
One renegade, unselfish chapter that I can think of are the Soul Drinkers. They are a renegade chapter that is loyal to the Emperor and Humanity but not to the Imperium. So there goes.
@@caav56 The shark chapter is basically this way. They are a fleet based chapter that go where they want, do what they want, help where they want, and ignore the Imperium's demands. They do respond to calls for assistant from other chapters, and also seek out other chapters to cooperate.

I think the lamenters have my favorite battle cry of any chapter. They don’t praise a corpse emperor as they charge into battle, or spew some inane drivel about making traitors pay. Instead the Lamenters never forget the mere mortals they are sent to protect, and cherish each and every one of them. If need be they’re willing to fight a chaos god themselves to protect them. Because for those they cherish, they will die in glory. It’s not a booming declaration of war, simply Grim determination to not let anyone else suffer the horrors they face
you praised the lamentors so you just get a warning for calling the glorious god emperor a corpse
@Druid of Scosglen The Lamenters live up to that standard in every battle!
@druidofscosglen2868 I think he missed his brother, and as such, he didn’t want the chapter that most closely embodies his brother’s character and will vanishing from the universe.

@@stringstorm I still can't see why they are insignificant
@Theant19 Weren't they part of the rebels of the Badab War?
@@TonyRedgrave yeah they were tricked by the Astral Claws
David S. Arch Warhammer actually covered that in his cursed founding series, up until that point their record was actually quite clean. They mostly dealt with alien menaces out on the frontiers of the Ultima Segmentum(I believe?), got reassigned to fight near the eye of terror during a black crusade, took harsh casualties after another chapter refused to fight with them against a greater foe. Eventually they got reassigned to the maelstrom and were tricked to siding with the traitors during the badab war, a conclave of space marines judged them innocent of heresy but condemned them to a 100 year penitence crusade for their actions.
So while the Badab was a major black mark it’s really the only black mark on their record. Honestly what sucks is that their performance would’ve made them a premier chapter an example of what it means to be a Space Marine! But because they were part of the cursed founding their condemned to hatred and mistrust, also that bad luck of theirs just makes their casualties worse.
Their honestly one of the most noble chapters out their but the circumstances of their birth and their cosmic bad luck is driving them towards possible damnation. So yah their the group that makes you feel when your enjoying 40K 😭

The Lamenters are what space marines should be. They embody the courage, honour, and compassion that you would imagine from the emperor’s chosen. For those we cherish, we die in glory

Stringstorm makes a song about a chapter I haven't heard of, I look them up with the song in the background and fall in love with these golden boys. I feel like these are the kind of astartes the emperor wanted, fighting to the last man in order to protect the subjects of his imperium
Before this song, I didn’t even know they existed. Now, they are my favorite chapter. Music, especially by Stringstorm, is an amazing way to get people to feel things.
These guys embody Sanguinius's kindness, for his fellow man. But also, gain his willingness to give their lives.

@@jasperzanovich2504 basically one of the things on a long list of the Lamenter's being screwed over... a Ork Slave Mine, where humans were forced to mine for the Ork's... it was deep in Ork Territory, the Crusade force was nowhere nearby and the Lamenter's basically volunteered for the job of getting the slaves out... they died in droves and fell to the Black Rage, the whole time holding back a massive Ork Horde as their Tech Marines worked tirelessly to get even the Ork Ship's spaceworthy... but it turned to ash in their mouth when the Human's told them to escape, that they didn't need to die basically... as the Lamenter's left, battered and with about 300k out of several million or billion people trailing behind them, the remaining freed slaves detonated charges that destroyed the planet... and when the Lamenter's told Papa Smurf (Calgar) that they didn't want the Iron Halo that he was going to give them for the Slaughterhouse mission... well everyone thought that the Lamenter's were basically snubbing the Crusade Leader.
@@jasperzanovich2504 At the outset of the Corinth Crusade, the Ultramarines called for allies to aid them in their holy task of scourging the mighty Ork empires of the Charadon region of the Eastern Fringes of the galaxy. The Lamenters answered the Ultramarines Chapter Master Marneus Calgar's call, mindful of the ancient debt they believed they owed the Ultramarines for their intercession many years before during the disastrous Siege of Corillia. They despatched a task force of 300 Astartes along with the Battle Barge Daughter of Tempests and her Escorts to serve with the Corinth Crusade. The Lamenters prosecuted the Crusade tirelessly, driving back the Greenskin menace in a series of campaigns and separate battles throughout the Corinth Sector. But it was the liberation of the world of Slaughterhouse III that proved the decisive turning point for the Chapter in the campaign. This Ork Mining World had hundreds of thousands of human slaves funnelled into its mines never to return. Moved by their plight, the Lamenters petitioned the Crusade Command for the task of attacking Slaughterhouse III, which Calgar reluctantly agreed to, with the proviso that he could grant no further support to the Lamenters' mission. The Lamenters slipped through the Orks' lines and quickly obliterated their orbital defences, and then swept away any organised Greenskin resistance in a remorseless assault. Seeing their brutal captors cast down, the prisoners rose up and joined the fray and in a few short solar hours the planet was in the Lamenters' hands. But their victory had unforeseen problems; they had liberated 3,000,000 human prisoners who now looked to their saviours to deliver them from the hands of their enemies. Reluctant to leave the prisoners behind and unable to transport them away from the planet, the Lamenters resolved to fight and if need be nobly die while any chance remained, their Techmarines desperately trying to restore the captured Ork starships to operational flight status. The single Battle Barge and less than 200 surviving Lamenters Battle-Brothers stood against the nightmarish odds as waves of Ork starships and Fighta-Bommers attacked, only to be beaten back by the Lamenters' savagery. Unprecedented numbers of the Lamenters succumbed to the Black Rage in the bloody struggle. The freed slaves took it upon themselves to end the impasse; after a last prayer of thanks to the Emperor they signalled the Lamenters' Battle Barge and requested a merciful death, knowing that at least they would die as free men and women rather than as the pawns of the bestial Greenskins. With another Ork fleet massing for the attack, the Lamenters had no choice and granted the former slaves the Emperor's Peace by detonating a series of hundreds of seismic charges that had been honeycombed through Slaughterhouse III's mines and collapsing the tunnels. The explosions laid Slaughterhouse III to waste within solar minutes, creating one of the largest planetary tombs in Imperial history. With fewer than 100 Battle-Brothers left standing, the battered but unbowed Daughter of Tempests escaped the Slaughterhouse System, trailing a handful of converted Ork slave transports, carrying with them less than a tenth of the liberated slaves. In operational terms the liberation of the Ork Mining World had been a resounding success; the destruction of the mines had set back the Orks' build-up of war materiel by years and caused internecine conflicts amongst the various Ork klanz vying for the star system's mineral wealth. The Lamenters' success was only marred by the unfortunate losses incurred in the battle's aftermath. Yet their "victory" tasted like bitter ashes to the Lamenters. When offered the honour of an Iron Halo in reward for their efforts from Marneus Calgar, the Lamenters took the almost unprecedented step of refusing this esteemed Chapter honour. This caused some of their Imperial allies to accuse them of deliberately insulting the Crusade's commander, further breeding suspicion and dark rumour among those already ill-disposed towards the Chapter.

They will gladly be the bulwark that all this is evil will break against, enduring the spite of their superhuman brothers and the ire of our enemies with a bolter in hand and a smile on their face. They do it without thanks and they do it readily. They refuse to surrender, refuse to retreat. They watch their brothers die beside them for ‘lesser beings’ and get nothing out of it. And after all the mud they’re dragged through they still smile upon humanity. For those we cherish we die in glory indeed.
Even when they are outnumbered they stand strong.
Even when thir allies betray them they stand strong.
Even when everyone turns and run they stand strong
They are the best of humanity....but that is unfortunately thir downfall........BUT THEY WILL STAND STONG!!
Нет они выстоят до самого конца те кто больше всех страдает смогут выставить 10 тысяч лет!Риланор Хранитель Традиций из легиона детей императора подтверждение и остался верен Империума и его императора!
The Lamenters are what the Imperium needs, but not what it deserves.
So, my list of things to give to the lamenters:
-10 Imperator-class titans
-100 landraiders
-2000 predator tanks
-2000 dreadnaught
-2000 dreadnaught for primaris marine
-50000 mastercrafted bolters, of each kind
- A few thousands plasma guns
-100000 sets of armour, mastercrafted, of each kind
- an assortment of heavy weapons of all kinds
- a few golden of technology era baneblades, at least a few dozen
-Safe passing through my territory
-Brand-spanking new super battleships, with all the ships coming with them
- and finally, my goddamn respect.
Alright, time to get to work. Those things are not going to make themselves.
Don't forget giving them the LUCKIEST PEOPLE YOU GOT or ciaphos cain
You make all these things, give them to the Lementors...and then they lose it all in a freakish warpstorm.
That's their luck for you.
@@jackstrayfeald1007 I got time and resources. I can also send them when they need them and then take it back, rinse and repeat.
@@manofironthathasntturnedcr9817 just send in cain
The shipment was destroyed before it got there
If the 40k universe was turned real life, one of my dreams would be to show this to the Lamenters to let them know that a lot of us love them and want to give them hugs.
The Angel watches his golden sons with tears in his eyes and pride in his heart.
Let sorrow be their burden. Let glory be their reward.
*Angel
Lmao stickler but thanks though 🤣👌

Nah neither the Salamanders or lamenters would ever say that they are to humble!

I know we're all here for the awesome music, but anyone else love the Visual Storytelling going on in the background of the images? Where the Lamenters begin their defense, the Civilians are so close that we can make out individual features and see the fear and awe in their expressions. The next picture, as hostilities begin, the civilians are running towards the grounded transports, details obscured by distance as the Astartes advance in the opposite direction. Next scene, the Transports are away but the Lamenters are starting to take casualties. Next, no sign of the transports full of Civvies, but more casualties with only a handful of Astartes left. Despite this, we see they are still doing a fighting advance. This leads to the finale where the Battle Brothers make their last glorious charge against the enemy, nothing in the background to distract us, it is all upon the few remaining Lamenters, as it should be.
The Truest Chapter to the ideals and dreams of the Emperor, beloved by all, when He first crafted his super soldiers. They are bulwark of humanity and they know no fear.
99 percent of battery: aight imma head out
Last percent:
The survival of the many outhweight the need of a fews. They know that, for they are Space marines and War is their calling, their birthplace, their graves, and they accept that War always claim lives.
They are simply the chapter who decide that they are the few who must be sacrified.
For those they cherished, they died in glory.
“Make our deaths worth the price; please use the time that we’ve bought” they didn’t ask a reward nor gratitude, not even remembrance… they just asked them to live.
It is this that makes you realize that no matter how many battles the ultramarines win they will never be “The Greatest of Them All” that spot is already taken…
FOR THOSE WE CHERISH WE DIE IN GLORY.
FOR THOSE WE CHERISH, WE DIE IN GLORY!!
Despite all of the bad luck and hell that the Lementers faced, they are perhaps one of the most inspiring things in space marine lore. No matter how many times that they have been gifted the short end of the stick, or betrayed by those they thought were allies, or pay penance for events and/or crimes that was not their direct fault, they continue to remain steadfast with the highest levels of loyalty and faith like any other chapter of Astartes.
Imagine being a civilian, Imperial authority were about to abandon you then the fucking Emperors Angel's of Death come down to cover the remainder of the evacuation.
"Alimentia" comes from "aliment" (nourishment), which only needs the second and third letters swapped to make "ailment" (sickness). A fitting place for a last stand by Astartes of a Chapter that comes from a lineage renowned for its affliction with unusually strong blood-drinking and flesh-eating urges AND is afflicted by a terrible curse of misfortune in exchange for their apparent freedom from the aforementioned urges.
Hooray! Someone noticed it!
@@stringstorm Hooray! I was finally noticed!
The two quotes this song makes me think “Come on than!” From battlefield 1 and “I’m ready! How about you?!” From halo reach
Ah, a man of Culture I see.
Current Objective: Survive
As one man said about Lamenters: "We don't know what terrors awaits them in future, but we do know one thing for sure: They still keep the damn line!"
So beautiful music, thank you for your works...
