They used their mobility as a fleet-based Chapter to crusade against the enemy without, rather than become ensnared in the quagmire of civil conflicts within the Imperium.įor the next millennium and a half, the Lamenters would remain on a continuous Imperial Crusade, conducting many campaigns against the various xenos species that plagued Mankind across the western reaches of the galaxy.
