Last call: Rogue Trader - Tuesdays 7pm EST (UST -5:00)

Looking for players interested in a weekly/biweekly Rogue Trader game. E-mail me for more details [tersigni.d (@t) gmail (d0t) com] or post to the board!
im interested perhaps
I GM the other game so as long as it doesn't impact that game I certainly would be interested in playing.
If interested parties could also post which game (DH or RT), which role they are considering, and their time-zone, it would be appreciated.
EST, and i'd prefer rouge trader...
I would love to play Rogue Trader PST.
Seneschal all the way...if that class hasn't been taken yet.
I'm interested in playing, but I am new to warhammer 40k rpg system, and I'm currently looking through the Dark Heresy rule book. I don't have the Rogue Trader book, is it similar? Looking at the classes I would be most interested in playing an Explorator.

Looking at the classes I would be most interested in playing an Explorator. Mike: Rogue Trader uses many of the same skills, talents, and attacking/moving rules as Dark Heresy, but has different economic and interaction rules, as well as added rules for building and maintaining your trade empire and fleet ships. EST, and i'd prefer rouge trader... Rolando: Did you mean the role of rogue trader, or that you simply prefer that game to Dark Heresy?
Oh that game to dark hersey not the roll of rouge trader. sorry for sounding vague.
As a role in the game i'd prefer to be an Void Master, Explorator, or Arch-Militant... whatever is more useful or not taken.
I've never played Rogue Trader, but I really enjoyed Dark Heresy. I played an assassin (mostly a sniper) in the DH campaign I was in, and it was loads of fun. I would be interested in either game, though.
Depending on times, I might be interested! What themes is the game exploring? Alien crew members in play or out of bounds, etc?
Time would start at 6 or 7pm EST on a weekday, and themes would depend on group consensus. Gm seemed alright with deferring to group preferences, within reason. I myself would prefer an all human crew, as including an alien forces all other characters to play a specific type (ie a slightly heretical imperial citizen).
I have a Rogue Trader rolled and ready to go. Ship is an Endeavour light cruiser. I can give the ship build If needed.
6 or 7 pm on a weekday works for me, as long as it doesn't conflict with my black crusade game(Seems like its gonna run on weekends). If I'm banned from being a sexy Kroot, I could do up a Void Master or Arch Militant.
I'm indifferent to theme because I'm still really new to this. And any weekday but Wednesday works for me.
6 or 7 pm will work for me as well.
I know one thing, I created a campaign on here to do my rolls, and I wouldn't believe them if they werent still in the history on the site...are we gonna get together to do rolls, or take each others word, or what? LOL.
Likely use either point buy or a set 9 numbers for character creation. Seems Tuesday might be a good night, as Mondays can get interrupted by long weekends, and I travel most weekends and prep on Thursday nights. Ship will need to be decided after ship points and profit factor is determined. Would like to do an intro game to get everyone acquainted with the rules in the next 10 days to help new players get a taste before designing their permanent character, and to see now the group gets along
I like either option. Set of 9 numbers is probably best (Arrange to taste) Point buy gets weird with tons of low, and high, scores.
An intro game sounds good.
Agreed on the intro game.
i sent you an email Daniel, As I mentioned i have a Ship setup along with a warrant of trade, Still waiting on character and warrant approval. I would also like to ask permission to post the ship for group approval. If no on ship and warrant, will revise when group input can be obtained.
First, let's use the intro night to see ->how<- we want to play: narrative vs focused actions, high realism vs high heroism, etc. I figure everyone should have a say in the ship build, as they're all stuck with it for a while and it affects a lot of play options. This'll be my first time as gm instead of player, so bear with me. I'll need to figure out how knowledgeable everyone is about the 40k setting as well and how strictly we want to adhere to it. Looking forward to that intro night. Interested players should post if they're free Tuesday July 10.
Sounds good. I work nights on Tuesday July 10th, every 10 weeks, I do 1 week of nights, and its actually the next two weeks, thanks to covering someones vacation. I'll be home around 9:30 EST that night.
I can make it to intro night
I love the idea of an intro night/game and I am free that night.
July 10 sounds good to me, if I can be involved. I'm attempting to get my hands on a rogue trader book, so that should give me some time to brush up on the rules!
Im interested, and anytime is good, also i perfer dark heresy
Alright, seems like we may have enough interest to get this off the ground if everyone who has expressed interest commits. Email me so I can send out relevant info over the next week and to confirm that you're in. Tersigni.d (at) gmail do+ com.
Replied.
Email is sent im in.
Do we want to set up a place for characters to be put, like <a href="http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/into-the-warp/characters" rel="nofollow">http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/into-the-warp/characters</a> for example?
Thanks for the tip, Poison, I appreciate the help. Once I figure out how to use that site, I'll post some pre-generated characters up for grabs for the first training night, as well as a template everyone can use for their actual in-game character (it was originally created for Dark Heresy, I'll find time to tweak it for Rogue Trader soon). The template is more background questions, not an actual character sheet. So far I believe we have 4 confirmed, so we're still on for the 10th. Sorry that you're working that night, Poison, but we'll fill you in on what you miss.
I'll be back around 9:30, festivities probably won't be totally over. I might be able to con a coworker into taking that night for me, we'll see
Email sent. i can be there on the tenth. looking forward to it.
I've sent the email! Really looking forward to this.
Anybody put any thought into their origin path?
I was thinking this Forge World => Studjack => Criminal(Judged and Found Wanting) => Press ganged => Endurance Haven't really come up with a story to surround it yet. I'm just getting into the rule book
Hey, is this still open? I've got a Rogue Trader character made that was never used, and have a bit o' experience with RT.
If I end up on Arch Militant, I was thinking: Fortress World -> Stubjack -> Crusade (Call to War) -> Hand of War -> Exhilaration (No Joy Unexplored) Looks like growing up on a Military Planet, get involved in a gang, get drafted into the war the military planet is set up for, do a literal ton of fighting, and a ton of getting drunk/high/effed up afterwards! =)
Samuel: Hey, is this still open? I've got a Rogue Trader character made that was never used, and have a bit o' experience with RT. Yes, assuming you're available from 7-11pm EST Tuesdays, as it looks like that's what works for the group. One shot intro session with pregenerated characters on July 10th.
Yeah, I can do it. Pregenned characters?
Just for the intro.
Alright.
In response to the origin path i was thinking if i was going to do a void master. Frontier World > Scapegrace > Criminal > Hand of War > Exhilaration (The Thrill of War)
Sounds like lots of intersections for us! Stubjack with me and Mike, Hand of War between you and I, good times!
going to be fun for sure.
If this is still open, I'd like to join in. Barring any freak scheduling conflicts with work, I should be good.
yes we are still open Devon. We will have our first intro session on the 10th.
