The game Warhammer Space Marine is an `alternate` 40k reality, i do not think it is the best example.

In the end it all comes down to either disregarding, changing or upgrading the codex. The only one who the Ultramarines will allow to do that is Roboute Guillman himself. I imagine that if another chapter, or high lord of Terra, or anyone tries to rewrite the Codex, the first ones to protest aginst that are the Ultramarines. Perhaps the whole reason the Codex has not been improved and expanded over 10 000 years are the Ultramarines themselves. If that is the case they are dragging down the whole Imperium.
