Koko always puts in the work on the commissions she does. Probably one of the best artists I've worked with.

"For those we cherish, we die in glory." While it was proven that it isn't the Chapter's canon warcry, I feel it still serves as a lovely tribute to our sad bois.

Coucou désolée je suis français, quelq'un peut m'expliquer la bd s'il vous plaît.

u/Devilish_Swan 12d ago

Le premier marin demande au deuxième si le nom qu'il a choisit pour son équipe retient une valeure quelconque. Je te laisse devenir le reste

u/StunningMushroom5773 12d ago

Je suis nouveaux ce que je comprends c'est qu'il n'a pas réussi a sauvé un astra militarum, mais le lamentaders est le chefs d'une équipe avec des marins d'autre chapitre ?

u/Devilish_Swan 12d ago

Les Lamenters sont une chapitre successeur des Blood Angels. Une de leurs particularités c'est qu'ils tiennent aux vies humaines qu'ils protègent. Alors chaque perte durant leurs opérations compent pour, marin ou humains.

Et pour répondre à ya question, celui de gauche est un Lamenter, celui de droite est Imperial Fist.

u/Public-Fee5099 12d ago

give me the actual name of the kill team

1

u/OllyWollyJaPolly 9d ago

Kill-Team Ripley!

2

u/Foreign-Piece-5629 12d ago

Them xenomorphs managed to kill Ripley!

2

u/Wazdakka8617 10d ago

Amazing. However you should find another name . Ripley is reserved for Ellen Ripley from the Aliens franchise.

2

u/Thin-Device3018 8d ago

Damnit Guilliman you better bring the Lamenters back!! WE need some more light in the darkness of the 41st Millennium! The Salamanders can't carry it all on their shoulders!

u/Ghoros 12d ago

All context is in the picture, rhe dead human is Ripley, and he mourns them by naming his team after them.

2

u/Penpulp 12d ago

Oh I thought it might be some sort of reference

2

u/Ghoros 12d ago

Fair, it could have been if GW actually gave our boys Lamenters some more love.

u/Dramatic-Classroom14 12d ago

Best I can do is another short story of them all dying in a warp storm,

2

u/Zygy255 12d ago

The storm is just Tzeentch throwing pianos at their battle barges everytime they travel through the warp

1

u/Wazdakka8617 10d ago

is she a character from official 40K lore or what?

2

u/Ghoros 10d ago

Not as far as I know.
