Apparently Black Templars don't have +6000 marines nowadays, it was a bit confusing to us all, but was actually a blessing on this site I think.

Great Scouring is a checkpoint in Imperial history many ways and we have really kept it that way. No Thunder Warriors who survived beyond that point, no loyalist traitors or traitor loyalist, and I just tend to place everything else as well into that category. If something is before Great Scouring, it wasn't after it. Okay, it does not really fit to everything, but it is a thumb rule. My knowledge about "30K" is a bit lacking anyway.

As I recall, there was no explicit date set to 5th Founding and we are not allowed to post any assumptions on Lexicanum, which is why there isn't any date for it. When I rewrote the Lex's Foundings page, I created basis of 40kfanon's chapters guide's Foundings part and included the points which were not confirmed (like the 4th Founding's date which was later written into canon too) but seemed like logical solutions. So 2 foundings in M32, 2 foundings in M33, 2 foundings in M34 (I think this is where NTI was said to occur in M34 too), 5 in M35 (during Nova Terra Interregnum), 7 after Nova Terra Interregnum and before 991.M35 (21st Founding), 22nd founding in early M37, 23rd (propably) in M38 (because there aren't any other foundings in the whole millennium, it would seem logical there were at least one), 24th in M39 (when Age of Waning begins), 25th in late M40 and 27th in 738.M41.... and then there's the Primaris founding. So no. Not all of the foundings are stated, but I think it is logical that there wasn't periods of two millennia without foundings and this was regarded as a good stuff on this site when I posted it and none has really objected it since then (2014) so I guess we'll roll with it. If you don't find them reasonable, I suggest you come up with some other theory and we'll see about it. I can swallow my pride and make changes if they are backed up with good stuff.

I still think there are other ways to create a honorable chapter but sure. Why not, keep the stuff going!
