"DELIVERANCE"

The Last Chancers Series is a series of novels written by Gavin Thorpe featuring the Imperial Guard 13th Penal Legion, or Last Chancers under the command of Colonel Schaeffer. In 2006, the three novels were published in an omnibus edition, titled "The Last Chancers", along with the short stories Liberty and Deliverance.


A little background for you:

Members of the Last Chancers are all convicted criminals facing various punishments. While most of those inducted into the 13th Penal Legion are done so at the deliberate behest of Colonel Schaeffer, a small minority are random transfers. All are given one 'last chance' at redemption by fighting in the worst combat zones possible. If they manage to survive an unspecified number of these missions, which is highly unlikely given the nature of the operations they undertake, they earn a pardon, being forgiven their crimes in the eyes of the Emperor. A Last Chancer who dies fulfilling his duty is pardoned posthumously by the Colonel, who takes it upon himself to provide redemption to all of his troops, sometimes by his own hand. Schaeffer's dedication to his cause is unparalleled and he has never failed a mission with his Last Chancers.

    2 hours of militarum tales??? Absolutely blessed by the God Emperor, we are. Thank you, Vox.
  • @SCUM808
    The "Almost" story was such a goddamn banger. This is the regiment lore I live for.
    Inspiring writing.
  • I AM A LOYAL SERVANT OF THE IMPERIUM I WALK IN THE EMPERORS SHADOW 🤩🤩
  • @MrObasiah
    This channel is criminally under subbed
  • Man, something about Field Test gets me every time. The way Neal Litherland describes the carnage is just so visceral, and paints such a clear mental image of the destruction. And of course Vox's delivery is fantastic.
  • @burnpitcav1519
    I have never wanted to sit down with a so-called celebrity or creator until now. I would really like to buy VOX a beer and watch him narrate a piece. I am 35 spent most of my 20s in the Middle East. I’ve met everyone from former diplomats to sitting presidents. This man is legit.
  • @ens.8365
    Can't wait to listen to this while working on my guard tonight.
  • It is the countless tales of heroism, bravery, and sacrifices that make the stories of the Imperial Guard, and each one is a tale worthy of remembrance which no doubt that the Imperium will never truly know all of them, but which the brave men and women of the Guard will continue to serve their beloved Emperor.
  • @ChillAssTurtle
    We owe our service to our comrades, our lives for The Imperium, and our souls now & forevermore belong to The Emperor.
  • @HydraDominus
    Two and a half hours of godly narrations? You spoil us, Vox
  • @kuibeiguahua
    My inner child was whooping and flapping his hands at the Skull Takers story!

    OMG GI JOSE VS ORCS VS GODZILLA VS MECHA GODZILLA???

    Omg coolest shit ever
  • @Trollioli
    2 and a half hours?! My cup runneth over! I will save this though. I have my project of my last class before I get my bachelors and I can't afford 2 hours. I will come back to this.
  • @dhandogoldogol
    I don’t need any Christmas presents this year, this is all I want and need
  • More of this please, the way you have projected field test is something else.
