What I posted does say that you're wrong. The fact is there is no definitive answer because GW hasn't clarified the matter. Its only your opinion that they changed their colours while stranded, but there's nothing from GW to support your position. The colours that they posted is of no consequence, as they're not GW and does not make it canon.

I'm fairly certain that there isn't an answer still isn't the same as being wrong. I said the colors changed and that I thought it was because they were stranded. Go ahead and keep your dogmatic view on the setting that drives people away though. I'm gonna go with the colors changed and its a game where creating chapters or making them your own is encouraged.

Except you were wrong. Just because there's no definitive answer doesn't mean you can claim that your opinion is fact. What you said was...

[The Chapter permanently adopted the color scheme after they were stranded on a jungle world. Its their way of honoring that time.

... which is nothing more than your opinion, yet you're presenting it as fact.

Fair enough, it being fact wasn't how I intended it, but its not FACT that they didn't do it either, because they don't have a FACT for what the colors are or are supposed to be. You are doing the exact same thing.

The only fact that we have is that they are shown in old stuff as Blue and Yellow and in new stuff as OD Green. There is nothing saying it was only for one campaign and there is nothing stating that it was permanent. Nothing that they are the same Chapter or Two different ones. We also know that they apparently have lost a good portion of their chapter records, both wiki pages and IA 9 The Badab War Part 1 say the Chapter is missing large portions of their records.

So in the end, there is that you choose to believe that they are still Blue and Yellow, and that I choose to believe they adopted the OD Green. Until GW comes down and says who is right and who is wrong, we both are and we both aren't. Fluff is much more open to interpretation like that, which, I am lead to believe is how GW wants it.

Go ahead and keep insisting you are right though. I will concede at least that I presented things as fact with out it being my purpose.

Again, you're trying to use claim that since we don't know what was intended you can pass your opinions off as fact. I'm done with this thread.

I..uh... I really don't understand what you are getting at, when I had just said I wasn't presenting anything as fact.

Anyway, OP there are several ways you can go about Lion Chapters, enjoy.

Id like to see me some astral claws.

Or just simply make your self your own chapter to use anyway you want.
