Should we change the persepective in which this article is written? It seems to hint at that there is no real storyline continuum between the games and the plot. Maybe we should confirm what seems to be true, what's false, and write it as an actual '''history''' history of the Blood Ravens.

The image seems a bit big to me, although i don't know how to make it smaller. Any help would be apreciated.--Jonru 20:50, 5 December 2005 (CET)
"Knowledge is Power. Guard it well" Sounds more like a thought for the day rather then a battlecry. Does anyone know where it is stated that the Blood Ravens use this as their battlecry? -Orky 11:00 PM, August 23rd 2006 (EST).
To date, I've only heard it in Dawn of War as one of the things the Librarian says. Don't think it's a battlecry.
Is the statement about the Primarch official? I didn't find any official fluff regarding this character.
- I think its a load of rubbish to be honest. I'm going to revert it.--Jonru 14:43, 10 October 2006 (CEST)
I read in Blood Ravens Index Astartes found in WD305 that Gabriel Angelos is now the Chapter Master. I'll admit I've not read the dawn of war novels, so I cant speculate as to what happened after the game, or why he would have been promoted. I also have no idea who this Archarius Ravenholm is or where that information came from. Is Gabriel Angelos chapter master or not? --Dark Angel 2020 13:39, 27 December 2006 (CET) And I'd also very much like to see the source for that link to the Thousand Sons chapter... wasnt that up here before?--Dark Angel 2020 20:41, 29 December 2006 (CET) Yes it was. Just because they have powerful librarians, everyone seems to think they are descended from the Thousand Sons. I too haven't read the books, but I just don't believe GW would allow something as stupid as that to happen.--Jonru 20:48, 29 December 2006 (CET)
Notable Blood Ravens
I took the liberty to put the info on the respective Blood Ravens in seperate article on the characters themselves. This is done due to the fact that the article is now more like that of the other chapters... compare Ultramarines, Black Templars, Blood Angels, Crimson Fists... they all only link to the wiki articles on their notable marines. -- JoeneB, 30 January 2007, 17:19 (CET)
Thousand Sons Splinter Sect Theorem
What about details suggesting that the Blood Ravens may have been a chapter that splintered in a schism from the Thousand Sons? The theory is quite popular considering the vast number of psykers in the chapter, coupled with the events in the third book in the Blood Ravens Omnibus which hint powerful speculations thanks to words Ahriman spoke to the main character. I admit it is only a theory, but given events in the latter Dawn of War series (which cause suspicion of the Blood Raven's heretical status) and the fact that the Primarch is unknown add strong credit to the speculation. --Lygris 15:17, 10 September 2008 (CEST)

- The possibility should still be noted as it is not just a possible link but rather a probable one. The author clearly states that there are plenty of clues in the books as to the identity if the parent chapter and there are an awful lot of clues pointing to the thousand sons. Im not saying you ahould have a full blown argument or disuccion but:
"The Blood Ravens do not know of their founding because all records were lost early on in their history the call their unknown founder the 'Unknown Primarch'"
Its just lazy, sloppy.
Perspective
Should we change the persepective in which this article is written? It seems to hint at that there is no real storyline continuum between the games and the plot. Maybe we should confirm what seems to be true, what's false, and write it as an actual history history of the Blood Ravens. Abaddon plays Starcraft...we all know that. 23:02, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
