After being the centerpiece of the massive Games Day 2005 event, this unique Space Marine chapter and its lore seemingly vanished, leaving only fan speculation and a "Needs Citation" mark on wiki pages. That all changed in October 2025, when a fan miraculously produced the original, intact Index Astartes leaflet from that very event. Join us as we explore the real-world history of the lost chapter, the 20-year hunt for answers, and finally dive deep into the official, newly-discovered lore—from their "heretical" Mechanicus origins to the final fate of the "crippled chapter".Support the show
