I was really disappointed that Orks don't get much love in the allies department.

A special HQ in the next codex that when taken allows for either everything in the Codex or special units to be taken as friendlier allies.

For example, take this special Ork HQ and all the Ork allies are treated as battle brothers for any army except Blood Angels.

Thoughts?

Nope. From a fluff perspective, the Orks just aren't that friendly with anyone, and from a gameplay perspective, that's just OP. Allies of convenience is just fine for the majority of Ork Allies, heck they can ally with Tau for some awesome gunline shenanigans.

There is not much need for a blood axe HQ. All it takes really is to have the ork warboss modelled as a blood-axe. The rules for the bloodaxe probably would not vary that much from the plain boss anyways.

Like said before, we can allready ally with everything that would make sense to ally with. Battlebrothers is not necessary and actually makes less sense when you think about it.
