I am pleased to announce that FFG has launched a new web site for Rogue Trader, the next Warhammer 40,000 Roleplay game set in the grim darkness of the far future.

Visit the new Rogue Trader website and explore a life where ambition knows no bounds!

Any chance for a bigger picture of the cover?

It certainly holds much promise, especially because you can actually be a Rogue Trader and build your own ship.

Also like the nice throwback to Wh40k 1st edition in coding the rulebook RT01.

I'm looking forward to all the previews we are going to get!

Coming soon! We have all kinds of goodies coming up for Rogue Trader. But, these comments should all go in the correct forum, so I direct your attention to t he Rogue Trader forum page for all future discussions.

From the first Designer Diary:

Rogue Traders have even attempted to cross the voids of interstellar space, but over such distances even the Astropaths’ powers of communication are useless, and whether such missions have succeeded is unknown.

Shouldn't that be inter galactic ? If astropaths had difficulties with inter stellar distances, there wouldn't be much of a point in having them...

Hmm, good catch, and now fixed. The servitor responsible for the error has been duly lobotomized. Again.

As posted elsewhere, the description of the game looks interesting and that it might be of more use to me personally than Dark Heresy ever was (erm, almost none). So, I once again remain hopeful to see what a "system" under the guidance of FFG ends up like. Cool.

I'm not looking forward to the endless speculation that happened on the Black Industries forum, though. (If only because I'm not going to be able to resist it and, further, I'll get everything wrong anyway!)

The Emperor is really the first gretchin! They'll reveal it in the new Rogue Trader! IT'S RIGHT THERE!!!!
