These are a few ideas i've put together for a Blood Raven Codex. Please comment on any aspect

My first impressions are that there are too many references to the main SM book. The only thing that lets me enjoy the official offshoot SM codices is that they rewrite almost everything. Great fluff though, would love to see version 2.0.

I think that the 'deploy second and start first' rule is really OP. I would say you can do that if you take only 1, or no heavy support.

MrLimeKing, what do you mean when you say it refers to the SM codex?

As I have shown the codex to other people some of the have commented of the Kyras entry.
[spoiler]
At the end of the space marine campaign in dawn of war 2 retribution you kill kyras and angelos becomes chapter master. Because of this I was wondering if I should remove kyras and the corruption system (see the latest version of the codex for information on the corruption system) from the codex.

Note: the new codex should be up in about a week.

only one Character in the Game has ever been able to choose to go First and that was Lord Solar Macharius. I don't think any Blood Raven can stand up to that kind of legacy, I mean, look at the horrid Meat Grinder they waged in DoW1 that they so deeply regret.
