FFG PLEASE LISTEN!!! MORE RACES IN PDF PLOX NOW

By Gamgee, in Rogue Trader

THat is all. I want to see other races fleshed out in PDF form. I don't care what line it's for as long as we can see some options for playing aliens and other different things. I'll accept that there will never be an alien races book or core. However I would still like some PDF style content. Look at Numenera and its glimmers.

I think if you adopt their style and use your own methods you can easily make small chunks of content that would otherwise not be profitable in a full book.

Thanks for reading. Sorry for caps in title. Super excited by Tau book is all.

Oh please, FFG doesn't read the forums. If they did, they would have disappeared me a long ti

Except their testers do. Who can pass on the idea if they feel they're worth mentioning.

FFG has testers?

Yes.

Yes. Additionally, responsible for the different game lines do read the forums, even if they do not answer directly (if you open the community page, in the bottom part, you often see a FFG_somebody reading this or that forum)

I noticed. I'm constantly being followed by someone under the alias Nameless2all. The name does sound strangely familiar too.

:D

FFG has testers?

Yes. and writers, even. Sometimes they ghost through and even troll the forums.

Writers obviously. Testers .. surprise me more. :-/

Shouldn't trolls be banned or something?! :lol:

It's a 40k setting. If trolls were banned, Games Workshop would have to hire a whole new writing staff.

I've been hoping that GW adds a new Space Trolls army to 40K. :P

The fact that this was joke didn't register with anyone? Either I'm losing my touch, or someone needs to roll to acquire a Good Quality bionic sense of humour.

Not enough commitment to the joke, you'd have to delete your account for a proper laugh.

Nah, they would just move the to the already obercrowded legal section. Although some serious fighting would ensue due the IP lawyers have already undergone a rite pure thought under guidance of MPAA and RIAA (the blasphemous twin demons of copyright and patents)

Well, there already are rules for some races in "big books". Dark Eldar, Orks and Kroots, to be precise. The only unplayable race rite nou is Craftworld/Outcast Eldar.

I'd love to see some new races, though.

I dunno, there aren't any playable Newcrons or Tyranid-hybrids. Doesn't sound more egregious than Tau, so I guess those are next.

Because they have been considered for a new game-line. Whether they still are, who knows? For as long as there are no rules for them in any existing game, the chance is real.

Necrons and Tyranids won't happen.

Tyranids are hard-locked on feeding and have a collective mind, There's simply no way to add them that would make sense. Genestealers, while at least able to communicate, will still go for their main purpose of breeding, and also have brood telepathy. It's a bad idea to make PvP rpg.

The only Necrons that would be playable are Lords, Overlords and Crypteks. Of those, only Crypteks could have a reason to join RT crew. Lords/Overlords wouldn't move without their armies and fleets.

And everyone keeps telling me Heightened Senses (Sarcasm) is a waste of XP.

To repeat something I said in another recent thread: let's stop acting like the races with armies in the tabletop game are the only xenos in the 40Kverse. FFG should be mass-producing new xenos native to the Koronus Expanse, both to use as adversaries and as sanctioned xenos in RT crews.

Fear in the Eastern Fringe, if playable Newcrons are your thing and you're not averse to well-written house rules.

THe problem I always have with this is the moment I do use house rules, FFG pushes out official ones. Though I still think mine for the tanks of the IG are superior to what FFG wrote.
