The Chapter was originally described as being a [[First Founding]] Chapter which saw action on the [[Eastern Fringe]] against [[Orks]], [[Eldar]], and [[Traitor Space Marines]] during the [[Horus Heresy]]. They were described in detail in two Epic articles in [[White Dwarf 126]] and [[White Dwarf 136|136]], circa 1990-91.{{citethisFn|1}}

The status of the Valedictors changed in [[White Dwarf 235]], where they are said to be of a "later founding," (post-Second Founding). Therefore, in the most recent [[Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum:Accepted sources|Accepted sources]] the Valedictors are no longer a First Founding Chapter.{{citethisFn|2}}
