"They are the 13th Penal Legion, 4th Battalion, 3rd Squad. Almost everybody calls them the 'Last Chancers'. Each of them is a hardened, cold-blooded criminal and killer, undertaking one last mission in the hope of earning their freedom.
Well today, they have a new recruit, and her past is most sketchy. But one thing is certain; fear makes a man desperate, and a desperate man is the most dangerous of all..."
The first part of the Aftermath trilogy.
My immediate thought on seeing the story description and picture was The Dirty Dozen with a Pony thrown in.

Darn, I had flashbacks to Company of War Criminals- I mean Company of Heroes. Sorry, it slips sometimes. Anyway, I remember throigh countless Penal squads at Germans, so this should be quite a story and hopefully not a short one!

You're not far off.

I hope you enjoy.
So, human Equestrians charging into suicide missions and coming out alive?
You should mark this as Mature m8.
Btw, when do these criminals get to go free? Let's say after 10 years of service do they do free?

That's between them and the God Emperor.

When their service has repaid their debt to the Emperor, and not before.
And no Lt Kage?

That's kind of similar to the actual last Chancers from 40k, only with Lasguns instead of MP40s.
Either way, I look forward to this.

Just to clarify, this is not set in the 40K universe, but inspired by the same basic idea.
9379060
Thanks man.
9379303
So, when are they released?
9379741
There'll be more on that in the next chapter.

In the novel they earn their freedom if they survive the last mission. If they die they get a post mortem pardon.

Indeed. This story will return soon.

That means we can be nearly friends.
