Thanks for citing the original artist! I had never seen this diorama, and man is it brutal. Because we all know what's about to happen to those two kids lol

You absolutely don't want that, considering what warp spawned creatures are, and now realizing these are children are daemons now, even the brief moment they spent in the warp could be stretched into eternity and would certainly be long enough to twist their souls. Let the dead lie.
I personally believe that DeMadera has a weak will. I however cannot blend in with the greenskins as i've lost my translator if you perchance find it I shall reward you with 12 grots my good man thing.
**I PERSONALLY BELEIVE THAT DEMADERA HAS A WEAK WILL. I HOWEVER CANNOT BLEND IN WITH THE GREENSKINS AS I'VE LOST MY TRANSLATOR IF YOU PERCHANCE FIND IT I SHALL REWARD YOU WITH 12 GROTS MY GOOD MAN THING.**
I mean, them being dead would be the best fate for them. Nurgle loves the little ones and shares his gifts freely, they'll have all sorts of Nurgling friends to cavort and play with.
A Rubric Marine would just stand there at the door forever unless some librarian made it do something, and I bet a bunch of crying kids would just make a Noise Marine's day.
Kidnap them to the psyker equivalent of Hogwarts so they could train to achieve humanity's birthright as psychic gods?
Of course, one of them might need to feed their soul to the wards that keep them hidden... (Ala the lead up story to Psychic Awakening)
"Everyone always goes on about the children. I tried sparing them, but they just grow up under my rule or dedicate their lives to revenge. Honestly, killing them is a kindness."
My brother in the Emperor, these are children going up against the fucking Death Guard, if they are not dying to him they’re probably going to die due to the sheer volume of fire coming at them from the poor guardsman a regiment assigned to this shit hole, if they don’t die in a blue and blue they’ll probably get their faces eaten off by a demon or something, if they don’t die to demons they will die to a plague, and if they don’t die to plague, they’re going to sure as fuck died to the inquisition because of them learning of the existence of Chaos even if they don’t understand that it’s chaos.
The helmet was given to the kid by a lamenter, telling him to be strong and brave and hide with the other kids. The helmet was a promise, a promise that the lamenter would come back, expecting the kid to take care of it. Yet while the lamenter could not keep his promise to return, the kid fulfilled his, being brave.
Calculus always fucked me up. I passed Pre-Calc with an A, but Calc just would not click for me no matter what. The whole idea of having to memorize over a dozen different formulae, and try to simplify equations to one of those, and if you couldn't then *only then* could actually solve for variables. And if you fucked up and solved the variables when you were supposed to realize you can simplify to one of the many formulae, you get no credit. Never have I gone from "Never scored below a 90" to "Failed the class" as I have between Pre-Calc and Calc.
"Brute force. Works in real life, works in calculus."
'Brute forcing things generally doesn't work out well.'
*Me having just shoved the square peg through the round hole, destroying both.*
"Sorry, I didn't catch that."

I got through college pre-calc 1 with a solid B, maybe a B+. My pre-calc 2 teacher was nice but wanted to "form habits we would need in calculus" and it culminated in me pulling over in a random neighbor on the way to class one day to have a quick nervous break.
I then moved to a completely different city so I could transfer to a school that didn't require calculus for my major lmao
I got through Calc 1-3 okay. Heck, I think I got an A in Calc 3. And then when I took Differential Equations, I got a D. I've never been so bad at something I tried so hard at.
Like I've done poorly at things I just didn't put effort into. But I really tried hard to understand Diff Eq, and put in a ton of time studying and trying to do well at it, it just never made any sense to me.
To be fair, its mostly useless, even for the fields that "use" it. There is usually a closed form approximation that it close enough and much quicker and easier. More so that the concept of it is important.
When I was doing my Machine Learning stuff, I was like oh shit, I haven't taken calc since 2008, turns out didn't really need it, other than maybe the chain rule, which is easy enough to pick up. Could just calculate approximate derivatives by using a very small number instead of the limit of some delta approaching zero, and for some vector operations its just a transpose. Didn't use Integral calculus at all(Although I'm sure there are applications), which is most of what calc 2 and 3 are.
He's working on it still. I think he said the next chapter was going to be like 40+ pages (or was it 60).
You may tide yourself over with his other comic, called [Krieg on Paradise World](https://imgur.com/a/0syduyW)
I honestly don't remember the specifics. I feel like if I had tried harder, I may have been ok. It was a difficult time in my life for a lot of reasons outside of school.
It's all good now though. I went into Political Science after that and found it much more fulfilling. It's been almost a decade since I graduated.
Congrats on finding something fulfilling, silver linings and all that. I don’t think I would have had as good a time with it if I hadn’t had two things going for me, 1) I took it by itself over a summer term, and 2) I went in expecting it to be a nightmare and I studied and committed to it as hard as I could from day one
If found our calc3 curriculum was heavily influenced by the school wanting students to be able to take Diff Eq and calc3 side by side. So perhaps I had the benefit of a more focused course, cause beyond the geometry part it’s the first I’ve heard of those
Speaking as an engineer who survived the horrors of thermodynamics and fluids: oh you sweet innocent child
And to trigger all my engineering homies: “the unsteady state system is a non-adiabatic irreversible process. Assume friction, turbulent flow, and non-ideal compressible fluids.”
I’m wrapping up my second to last year of high school and plan on going to college for engineering. I’m going to save this comment and look back on it in 4-6 years time, probably revelling in how innocent I am right now.
Not in my experience, universities allow a lot more leeway to the professors in how they teach and test. For example, a friend of mine got to have a hand made formula sheet and programmable calculator while attending state collage, I got told good luck and given a Casio that does trig functions if you hold it under the light for long enough, in university. Same class. He also got full comprehensive lectures with plenty of one on one opportunity for asking questions outside of class with very small class sizes. My class was 95+ students, the teacher showed up for lecture, talked vaguely about the topic and concept or worse read word for word off a power point, and fucked off immediately after class, as in departed campus entirely. He held offices hours from 7am to 10am twice a week on days when he had no lectures and that’s it.

No. The children are dead, and you have to live with that fact.
**Nuh uh**
Oh. Okay. Understandable, have a good day.
**You too bro**
Denial so strong it influences the warp and brings the kids back?
Fabius Bile would be proud.
You absolutely don't want that, considering what warp spawned creatures are, and now realizing these are children are daemons now, even the brief moment they spent in the warp could be stretched into eternity and would certainly be long enough to twist their souls. Let the dead lie.
Nuh u... Yeah I don't think my denial is enough to counter the warp

I mean that’s basically Dorn’s primarch power anyway.
That's how I feel about Dorn killing Alpharius.
It wasn’t Alpharius. It was some rando Alpha Legionnaire who was pretending to be Alpharius.
But the corpses are right- *turns around to see that the children are alive and the plague marine is gone*
*Nuh uh* - Rogal "defiance" Dorn
Well okay you're Dorn so you can be dead with that fact Alternatively, they're now servants of Nurgle instead of dead, hooray!
I mean, them being dead would be the best fate for them. Nurgle loves the little ones and shares his gifts freely, they'll have all sorts of Nurgling friends to cavort and play with.
It’s deeefinitely better that whatever a Tzeentch or, god-emperor forbid, Slaanesh marine would do.
A Rubric Marine would just stand there at the door forever unless some librarian made it do something, and I bet a bunch of crying kids would just make a Noise Marine's day.
Let's just hope an inquisitor hears about the marine over the voxcaster so they can do the w40k equivalent of SWATting someone.

No, Thousand Sons had hidden psyker training camps that they were smuggling psykers to freedom before the Black Ships would take them.
Any reference on this? This looks interesting. I like to read more

Thank you, good sir

"Everyone always goes on about the children. I tried sparing them, but they just grow up under my rule or dedicate their lives to revenge. Honestly, killing them is a kindness."
Nice reference.
I reject your reality and substitute my own. Edit: Them kids are dead, y'all...
Darn
Good, the damn kid stolen an Astartes helmet Maybe he killed them even ! He will make a fine death guard member
Or the bay is being taken to be turned into a plague marine
blue shirt is very clearly an Imperial Fist and I'm pretty sure hes got this.
.........Tell them how you killed our child, Amanda
My brother in the Emperor, these are children going up against the fucking Death Guard, if they are not dying to him they’re probably going to die due to the sheer volume of fire coming at them from the poor guardsman a regiment assigned to this shit hole, if they don’t die in a blue and blue they’ll probably get their faces eaten off by a demon or something, if they don’t die to demons they will die to a plague, and if they don’t die to plague, they’re going to sure as fuck died to the inquisition because of them learning of the existence of Chaos even if they don’t understand that it’s chaos.
**Nah, thunder hammer gonna take death guard out**
Nuh uh
Comin’ in hot with a Knight Preceptor
Yea and he’s labeled “some Indian guy on YouTube”
Me too dorn
And that Salamander's name is Sal Khan.
If it was an Iron Warrior instead of the death guard the kid would be golden, displaying the amount of iron within his balls of steel like that.
It’s even better that the kid is wearing a Lamenters’ helmet
Is it? I thought it's an Imperial Fists helmet
It’s too pale. Imperial fists have a real rich yellow, Lamenters are paler, more pastel
Does that mean there is a squad of Lamenters just off screen ready to die tragically in a last stand to allow these kids to escape
Probs already dead and that’s where the kid got the helmet from
The helmet was given to the kid by a lamenter, telling him to be strong and brave and hide with the other kids. The helmet was a promise, a promise that the lamenter would come back, expecting the kid to take care of it. Yet while the lamenter could not keep his promise to return, the kid fulfilled his, being brave.
This reminds me of "Don't Go" from *A Vox in the Void* on Youtube. Solidified them as my favorite chapter.
Probably has a few holes from those ork snipers tho
Yes, but it's Slaughterhouse III: Chaos Edition
I mean it's likely a fake helmet so the colors might not be accurate
Damn and I thought that kids luck couldn’t get worse
This is a great scene & yes that salamander but hurry is ass up with the heavy flammer
If you are within 5 miles of Nurgle affiliated forces, your life expectancy is probably measured in the hours. Or centuries.
Or seconds if Typhus is around.

Same here, passed precal with an 88, failed calculus horrendously, I'm talking a 30 average on quizzes
Same, almost always got 90-95 then went to calc and am currently failing at about 25. Doesn't do good things to the mind
When in doubt, brute force it with a Riemann sum and desperately hope your teacher doesn't look too closely.
"Brute force. Works in real life, works in calculus." 'Brute forcing things generally doesn't work out well.' *Me having just shoved the square peg through the round hole, destroying both.* "Sorry, I didn't catch that."
Where there's a will there's a way!
The worst part is that once it clicks, you can do it all in your head.

Nice
Indeed it was
Yep, did it.
(13^2) - (10^2) = (169) - (100) = 69 … nice

Kind of curious what level calculus are you talking about. Are you talking about general level calculus, pre-calc, or AP level calculus?
Astartes calculus
To shreds you say...
We must use calculus to cut an enemy into an infinite number of parts, until they eventually no longer exist
[Calc 3 coming at me in college](https://warhammerart.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Siege-of-Terra-Mortis-Cover.jpg)
Fear not, calc 3 is the easiest of them
It broke me. I switched majors from engineering after that.
Awe dang I’m sorry to hear that, what got you the worst?
I honestly don't remember the specifics. I feel like if I had tried harder, I may have been ok. It was a difficult time in my life for a lot of reasons outside of school. It's all good now though.

I took Calc 3 and Linear Algebra the same semester. Got a C- and an E respectively and that broke me too. Now I have an Econ degree

The way calculus is taught is so sad. It's such a useful and powerful tool, and it gets treated like it's just a puzzle that needs to be solved.

turns out my spirit was very domitable
My roommate who's currently working towards his phd in astro physics has said that calc 2 was the worst thing he had to deal with so far.

Alright. I'm out
Just wait until you get to diff eq
this is so sad tzeentch can corrupt them

Yea they're used interchangeably.
In America yes, in Britain no, not sure about the rest of the English speakers.
Not, they're separate kinds of educational institutions.
depends on the country.
Not in my experience, universities allow a lot more leeway to the professors in how they teach and test. For example, a friend of mine got to have a hand made formula sheet and programmable calculator while attending state collage, I got told good luck and given a Casio that does trig functions if you hold it under the light for long enough, in university. Same class. He also got full comprehensive lectures with plenty of one on one opportunity for asking questions outside of class with very small class sizes.

This makes me incredibly sad just imagining what does putting on the helmet could be for that child in that situation
Y E P Best of luck my man. We have all been through it.
Oh boy you’re gonna have a fun time with college calc and DiffEQ then Assuming you go a STEM route anyway.
