I can answer a few of those.

A: You can play as whatever faction you want, none of us are laying sole claim to a particular faction.

B: I'm guessing you mean the sub sector? I don't know which segmentum it is in, but we're playing in Ultima segmentum. Not that it really matters, most of us have invented our own little systems.

C: No, Blood Ravens are not yet taken.

D: I cannot recall off the top of my head, but they are quite powerful vessels so I wouldn't doubt it.

E: Technically, if we go off of the last official date GM Lore gives so far as the present(which is the 13th Black Crusade), then we can say that our game probably takes place at the most, a century past the "modern" period of 40k, as its the 42nd millennium for us, and the Emperor's soul's violent ascension to God-hood at the hands of radical inquisitors ushering it in.

I am pretty sure that slots are full atm though, just wait for Omega to confirm it though.
