The Cursed Founding EXPLAINED By An Australian | Warhammer 40k Lore

This video got me another community guidelines strike so hopefully that gets sorted out....

In the mean time get a limited edition Space Spartan here : majorkill.com/products/space-spartan-limited-editi…

The lamenters weren't the only sons of Sanguinius to remove the curses! There were also the angels resplendent. Until they decided avoiding the curses was heresy, renamed themselves the angels penitent, became rules by chaplain and actively chose to lean in to their gene flaws. They also had a Chief librarian who was never psycho-indoctrinated so he had a normal human mindset. Super cool.

The Lamenters are the real heroes of 40K. Even when they're treated like ass, are Tzeetch's favorite punching bags, and their own "brothers" annihilate them frequently, they still protect the people of the Imperium.

The black dragons and the Firehawk are my favorite cursed founding chapters.

Another thing to mention is that the lamanters were the luckiest/unluckiest cursed chapter to have bad luck as a flaw since apparently they aren't the first cursed founding chapter that suffered from bad luck but they're the only one who survived

Great video, MK. Hope to see a followup maybe on the Dark founding. Also, have you concidered making a video on the Codex Astarties? Maybe covering its rules, who follows it, and who's exempt from it?

I thought the sons of Antaeus were an Alpha Legion gene seed chapter? Their armor is grey and black and there is no known chapter insignia. They are also huge and durable naturally, similarly to the Alpha Legion. The other thing to consider is the loyal twin Primarch of the AL also wore simple grey armor and never really stood out. It was the possibly traitorous twin who had the distinctive scaly blue armor. That being said I am not convinced either of the twins were actually traitors. I believe they knew that to join the emperors side openly during the Heresy would mean losing their ability to subvert Horus' battle plans.

I am open to them also having some Gene seed from loyalist elements of the Death Guard. But i'm pretty sure the grey knights already had that covered.

I subscribed to the theory of the Lamenters's curse being all coincidentally. But the idea of the dark angel half of Sanguinius LITERALLY cursing them is a better idea

Why do I feel like Cawl may have secretly had a hand in "The Cursed Founding"? Maybe it was an early attempt at creating Primaris Marines?

The Lamenters just make the whole setting even more unfair and grimdark :D Love them.

Maybe do a video on why Huron Blackheart should be warmaster of chaos.

So Sons of Antaeos are pretty much pseudo Primaris Marines with how they were developed except with some unknown downside.

Poor lamenters. I think I am going to do a lamenters army, seeing as how often I lose games.

The Cursed Founding may have been one of the Imperium's tragic mistakes, but fluff wise it was one of the most brilliant origin stories for a group of Chapters that GW ever came up with. Unlike the Smurfs none of these guys are boring. And everyone loves the Lamenters.

The black dragons mutations sound like a buff instead of a curse.

Would love to see more on the red corsair and more of Huron Blackheart they sound really dope for a chaos faction.

Poor lamenters they even made TTS emperor SOB

Tbh the Sons of Anteos kinda sound like a secret Death Guard successor.

I think, that the Sons of Antaeus are just Custodians in training. Like it would explain most of it, especially why they don't communicate to most and are able to take that much punishment while being so tall.

Would anybody else actually like to play The Black Dragons on tabletop? They're basically Wolverine Marines with them having a mutation that benefits them and they look cool as hell too
