We've all been in a situation like this - we've found a loophole or ambiguous patch in the GW background relating to the pre-Heresy era, and we really want it cleared up before we paint something the wrong colour or decorated with the wrong symbols... :rolleyes:
VESPASIAN and The Red Sorceror are two of our most knowledgeable board members... not just on the PH era, but also how it interacts with the rest of the 40k timeline, as well as real life. They are giving of their own time to field questions here, so please be courteous and concise!
When you want to ask something, please make sure your question is clear within the post. If you are responding within a thread with ideas or quotes, please address the question as directly as possible.
If you have evidence or canon material to add to or otherwise support your post, please quote the EXACT name of the book/source and also if possible a page number, so the facts can be checked by others who want to learn more.
