For nearly 20 years, the Steel Confessors have been one of Warhammer 40K's biggest mysteries. 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".
