    The Twenty First Founding was the largest Founding of Space Marine Chapters since the Second Founding. It took place shortly before the Age of Apostasy, in 991.M35. The focus of the Twenty First Founding was perfecting and removing deficiencies in flawed gene-seed. The Twenty First Founding is also known as the Cursed Founding, because of the appalling bad luck that seems to dog the Chapters created. Worse still, some Chapters have developed genetic idiosyncrasies, mutations that strain the tolerance of the Inquisition and threaten the Chapter's survival.

      Well, I do not know why people are pissed. Then, again 40K fans are weird. They love all the depression and pure despair of the setting. They hate anything that seems to have anything going right, unless it is Orks (Orks never fail). So they want humanity to just be the whipping boy all the time. Never allowed to have success or even get cool shit. My opinion. Which to me writing all of this. I think those who love being depressed and in despair. They need help.
      We get that the universe is the "Grim Dark" but come on. Humanity is allowed to learn from its mistakes and get over stupid dogma and fucking improve! Plus GW wants to make money and Primaris Marines are new bigger Space Marines. On their level people! Open up your wallets! Or be a bastard (hero) and 3D print your own versions. After all, they can't trademark "Marine"...even though they tried and failed, badly.

    I've always enjoyed the theory that Cawl was actually the one behind the Cursed Founding. Like that it wasn't a general Mechanicus attempt at improving the gene seed.

    A few small but important facts that were missed this episode.
    1) The Lamenters were thought to have been a success at first because they didn't suffer from the Black Rage. Then the constant misfortunes started and kept getting worse.
    2) With the Black Dragons, their venomous fangs NEVER stop oozing poison and as such has scarred their mouths black and given them pointed tongues along with a dour attitude.
    3) With the Flame Falcons their catching fire happened in the middle of a battle, in front of an Inquisitor, and slowly spread to the rest of the chapter. These flames, didn't stop. Once they started burning they kept burning, but they celebrated being forever burning warriors because clearly Emperor's Blessing.

      That small group of black dragons that didn’t mutate is exactly what broke the chapter apart. The black dragons that didn’t mutate turns to chaos and the ones that were mutated stayed loyal. The loyalists absolutely slaughtered the traitors and now they are all mutated. The “main character” of the book even got special bone blades due to fighting the traitors

Pink will give you nice shadows while the ivory gives you your highlight via the zenithal. The same principle applies with painting red or orange. For those 2 colors prime in brown and ivory because both of those are warm colors. When you try to paint warm colors over a cold color like black or white it desaturates the color. Now yellow is neither a warm nor cold color but it's very transparent hence why the undershade is so important. The final result is a warm sunny yellow that looks like you spent hours doing highlights but it actually took you 10 mins because all you did was slap yellow over that primer.

    They didn't talk about the Blood Gorgons that much which makes me sad as they do have a decent amount of info on them since they have a book series. Besides what they said about being more tactical and not aligning to a specific god they also try to purge themselves up corruption to the best they can, and have fought death guard/plague marines on multiple occasions. When they first when traitor they moved into a giant space hulk and ended up infighting and breaking up into multiple small warbands that fought inside the ship until their old chapter mater defeated the other warbands and reunited the chapter now smaller into a cohesive group that are now totally loyal to each other. Their Apothecaries now powerful psykers called Chirurgeon‐Witches know a ritual called blood bonding that allows two marines to almost sync their minds together making them know of each others actions without saying words. For their tactics they make small squads that are made up of several group of bond brothers. They also treat their cultists/ human followers with more care then normal CSM as they see them as valuable assets/ property that belong to the marines and when the marine that owned a slave died those slaves are also killed and buried sent off with their owner. The Blood Gorgons are cool but since the stuff with their author I doubt we will see anything else from them again which is a shame. Also their chapter master/chaos lord now has a crab claw.

    What I love about the cursed founding is the blurred line between being chaos and still loyal. When Bricky released the video about every 40k faction two years ago, I decided to take his advice and get a small army of space marines. However I went for cursed founding and gave them a physical disability that turned tactical marines into a semi-possessed squad that functioned like death company from blood angels, OR have the limb or part amputated and have prosthetics like iron hands.
    The cursed founding gives a lot more freedom, and a lot of good and bad comes out of it, in lore and in real life. I know a hobby store manager who has a 'cursed founding' chapter that's just bright pink hello kitty marines. very cursed.

    One of the reasons why other chapter shunned the fire hawks was due to their participation in the Great Malagatine Purge where 5 chapters were ordered to slaughter every man, woman, and child in the Malagant system. What’s suspicious about this is that any information about this operation is unknown even to the inquisition. As such the reasoning for such a brutal slaughter are unknown and when I mean slaughter I mean the usage of exterminates and virus bombs to ignite a planets atmosphere. For their work the hawks were given a feudal world of Costeau XI as a recruitment world. Because of their willingness to commit such slaughter on civilians whose guilt is still unknown they were shunned by many other chapters. It should be noted that the other participating chapters were the Charnel Guard and Silver skulls. The last two are unknown.

    The 3 successes:
    1 became the military police
    1 was big and tanky
    1 got extra offensive additions to their bodies
    Of the 4 who "went bad"
    1 was so unlucky that I assume it has to be from a certain faction in the warp. Still had heightened resistance to the faults whose correction was the point of tinkering with their geneseed. Also fine conduct and humility.
    1 was immediately taken behind the shed for the first odd thing
    1 got lost in the warp, and their possible/presumed fate as ghosts is uncomfirmed, let alone definitely rooted in their modifications.
    1 did admittedly turn traitor, though more subdued traitor than most.
