About the adventure

*"In Rogue Trader, you take on the role of a Rogue Trader and his most trusted counselors, empowered by an ancient warrant of trade to seek out profit and plunder amongst unexplored regions of space. Your ship will take you to new worlds and uncharted reaches of the void, where you will encounter rivals, pirates, aliens, and possibly even creatures of the warp. You will acquire and spend great wealth and riches, and fame or infamy will follow. You will discover ancient and forgotten mysteries and search out the unknown to find lost human worlds or never-before-seen celestial phenomena. You must survive the dangers of space, for beyond the threat of vacuum and deadly radiation lurk things Man was never meant to find... To be part of a Rogue Trader's crew is to stand on the threshold of nearly unlimited opportunity. Vast profits await for you and your fellow Explorers to find and claim. Fame and fortune reward the bold, but the unwary find only an anonymous death. Begin your players' path to wealth and glory with a complete starting adventure that puts the Explorers right into the middle of the action. "* The campaign will be a mix of my own creations and pre-made adventures, and there will also be an overarching meta-plot based on the character's backstories and goals, which of course I must wait to construct depending on what you create.

Gameplay details

This game focuses on investigation in adventures of discovery of unknown alien worlds in a dark science fiction environment. As protagonists in this setting, you are encouraged to be morally grey (whether light or dark grey) anti-heroes, rather than noble-bright heroes or despicable villains. However any 'alignment' can thrive, but role play, and group cohesion, will vary in difficulty depending on your outlook. The 'Film Rating' for this game, as well as almost any narrative media in the Warhammer 40k setting, is intrinsically R. It's pretty much baked into the mechanics such as the critical hit system, and the 'grim dark' of the setting. Please be ok with this.
