When you think about it, for the the few who are able to live as Rogue Trader, it is one of the few occupations in the Imperium where one can essentially not just be free, but can live out as close as one to a peaceful lifestyle in a galaxy at perpetual war. Its responsibility is as powerful as the rewards where you are free to express yourself and give back to the Imperium as you see fit and revel in it. Where when you eventually pass on the mortal plane, you still died free surrounded by those who loved you and will honor you long after you died. A bright spot in a grim dark universe.

I’m pretty sure that’s exactly what 1st edition 40K was about.

[@KCUFyoufordoxingme]

Had some good times mixing rogue trader with deathwatch. There were 7 of us. We each ran the game for 3 sessions, taking turns. It was great fun establishing and interpreting each other's npc's. The shock and insanity rules, along with bad dice luck with every slight use of psykers resulting in accidental blood raining demonic summoning, we added rules so that their was always one inquisition member and one commisar in the party at all times for extra good fun. My turn I got the blue print for a cigarette factory, and wrote in space skaven that were getting juiced drinking the gene seed of a captured chaos Marine. Ultimately they were trying to destroy a Tau super weapon that could fire directly into the warp at the same time as real space, seemingly unintentionally. We later small sessioned a slight variation of the rules and I ran what was basically an "outlaw star" slight wild western punk Asian themed game with remixed class options like a sniper doctor and such. Ship to ship melee combat ("grappler arms") became a part of it that everyone liked.

I want an RPG game where you are a Rogue Trader and you go around the undiscovered places in the Galaxy. Meeting brand new threat and get some Xeno and imperial companions.

Also maybe add a Kroot or Ogryn as well. Also since Rogue Traders are discovering new planets the story can be completely separate from any major events and threat could be anything.

I noticed people asking for Jokaero, Zoat and Men of Iron lore videos. Still recommending the Blackstone Fortress novels as in the last Ascension novel both the Zoat and (alcoholic) Jokaero get some human interaction, UR-025 (men of iron) pops up in Vaults of Obsidian. In multiple novels there are interactions between a female Aeldari Ranger (Amallyn Shadowguide), a rogue trader and a crazy ministorum priest (Taddeus the Purifier). Just the Ascension novel alone would give a lot of content for a lore video, as most of its contents have not made it to the wikis, reddit or lexicanum.

Thank you very much for doing this video. I've been into 40k for almost 20 years, and because I couldn't afford an army at first, then didn't have people to play it with after, I got rather into the lore. When I found Fantasy Flight Games' Dark Heresy, I was rather excited...until their partner line Rogue Trader crossed my table. Inquisitors and Rogue Traders have always been among my favorite humans, with their sheer range of options, and doing everything as 'just a human, but while DH requires a second book, and significant upscale to the Challenge Rating to let you be an actual Inquisitor, Rogue Trader just let's you start as one, AND then gives you a free spaceship. For most of these 20 years, the men and women who bear the title of the original game, and who can touch the most advanced tech, the biggest ships, and the holiest, or most benighted places, have been my favorite thing in Warhammer 40k, and so to get to see a video about them, when 40k, as an IP, rarely looks at such elements, is great. Thanks again, both from myself, and the Qel-Drake Dynasty!

[@HypnoticChronic1]

Forget Rogue Traders being a great setup for a book, they are the ideal candidates for a game in the same space sim genre as the likes of Elite Dangerous or Star Citizen. Not only are space sim gamers comping at the bit for a solid space sim that isn't failing (ED) or is in development hell (SC) and would likely fund the game alone (see both how ED and SC got development rolling if ya ain't convinced) but, then ya also got the 40k nerds on top of it who would equally contribute funding or at the very least pick up the slack. Plus the lore and the universe is already fleshed out so there is no need to waste resources developing that as is the likes of space sim model itself, GW is so basic in their thinking that they fail to see the potential the 40k ip holds outside of the tabletop and instead choose to make games that are more often than not half assed and a struggle to enjoy playing with rare exceptions, which only entice the 40k audience and rarely entice or bring in other potential customers that aren't already invested in 40k which could possibly prop up the tabletop sales to boot, there is only really 3 main games they would have to compete with namely the aforementioned 2, No Mans Sky and to a far lesser extent X4 and Rebel Galaxy, it ain't exactly a hugely competitive market they would need to break into and has the potential to be quite profitable for GW if they got their head outta their ass.
