Re: RT: Players needed

Olympia:
flakk, is there a Primer for RT online? I have yet to take the dive and get the rules.

Otherwise, I am interested.



Hmmmm, not sure.  I can always add you as a lurker so you can see how things work.  Not very different from DH.

flakk:
Well it looks like both positions might be filled but would you like to be added as a lurker in case anything opens up?


Sure, can do!

In reply to Olympia (msg #5):

I'd say it is possible to play RT with a knowledge DH. Having said that, within days of join Black Hearted I'd ordered the RT rules from Amazon!

The imperial primer on the Dark Reign website should work just as well for RT, but I'd imagine it's been taken down now thanks to GW.

Re: RT: Players needed

We at Black-Herated, Rackless Abandon are looking for a player to take on the roll of a missionary by the name Mordechai, the spiritual advisor and friend of the party's captain Johan Verdan, who is on a mission to find his twin brother Yuri Verdan (not an evil twin, we are not a space soap yet), warn him that the nastiest pirates this side of the Imperium are out to get him and to get rich in the process. Oh, and trying not to get killed by Dark Eldar.

If you are interested speak up or send a rtj. There is the potential for creating your own character at a later date as well as having a go at GMing (we have a system... well sort of).

Looking for a player to take over the role of navigator Otis Nodar:
link to another game

Otis Nodar is something of a local legend in the sector. 'The Jinx', 'The Black Navigator', 'Doom-spawn'...There are several such names. He's been one of the hand full of survivors in three Rogue Trader ship losses. For the past three years He's been traveling port to port seeking a ship willing to take him on as Navigator.

Otis, has been called Ship-cursed, for he's been navigator on three Ships that have fallen due to Xenos (The Moonglum fell to Eldar), Pirate (The Tears of Sol fell to rebel privateers allied with a minor chaos cult) and Warp calamity(The Sainted Prisoner disappeared in the warp but a life pod fell back into real space with 5 unconscious survivors with no idea how they got there). Each time he's been one of the handful of survivors.

Otis Nodar is a young Navigator, just 30 years of age. Due to his "Otherness, everyone around Otis feels strange unpleasant sensations. Metallic tastes in their mouths, an odd feeling of being touched by an unseen hand, or a mildly unsettling whine in their ears are common. He keeps his head covered most times, but a wild strand of his light brown hair can be seen peeking from under his hood. He wears his ornate hellpistol in a holster at the front- center of his belt and usually carries the eye in the Pyramid metallic staff of a Navigator in his left hand.

Re: RT: Players needed

Another crew position is opening in Ben E's game! Details included below:

Wanted: Replacement Astropath
Starting: Now
Game: Rogue Trader Adventures (Riddle of the Righteous Path)
Link: link to another game
Vessel and Crew: HMS Vainglorious Chariot, Tempest-Class Strike Frigate
Captain: Vladimir Darkraven
Seneschal: Jarrion Goodquille
Navis: Otis Nodar
Helm-Mistress: Krystal Davenport
Enginer-Master: Hastius Gearhart
Astropath: Severus Heldrane M.I.A.

Game Info: A Rogue trader adventure for all players.  Will be specifically suitable for newer players just getting to understand the game.  High post rate will be expected. ALL PLAYERS MUST HAVE THEIR OWN COPY OF THE RULES.
Synopsis: (warning! contains adventure spoiler links!)


Spoiler text: (Highlight or hover over the text to view)
The Righteous Path was a lost “Grandcruiser” 2500 years ago during Angevin Crusade in Calixis Sector adjacent the Koronus Expanse.

Rogue Trader Darkraven and his exceptional crew are en route to discover this fabled vessel before it is snatched up by the competition!

Free Captain Locarnus Ryn was filled with bloodlust and greed, but also an unwavering faith in Drusus and the Emperor.  At the helm of his Grandcruiser, the Righteous Path, he was the scourge of a hundred worlds.

One such world was Krystallian.  A lost colony  fallen to worship of false gods and prohpets known as the Talisar. Cloud temples were raised by the Talisar, with immense wealth and blasphemous grandeur within.

Lorcanus Ryn sweept away thousands of years of Krystallian civilisation and their prophets in three days of fire and blood. When the war was done Ryn marvelled at the riches he had won.

The details vary from teller to teller but it is known that the wealth was greater than a hundred worlds.

Whatever the form of the planets wealth, Ryn was not content to sample it, nor did he trust his crusaders to carry it away.  So he set about filling the Righteous Path from stern to ram.

He tore out gun decks and launch bays and vital innards of the Path, converting his warship into a treasure-barge to hold the plunder.

He marooned thousands of his own crew on Krystallian(!).

Then he vanished into the warp, 2500 years ago.

His destination was unknown... until an astropathic marker revealed the location of the Righteous Path in “a strange and uncharted part of the [Koronus] Expanse.”

"A distant dustfilled world, surrounded by a icy halo orbiting a flickering star..."

Come join us on our perilous quest for the lost treasures of the past!

Re: RT: Players needed

Ok I have a question for all concerned for a RT game.


And that is what is that you, as players look forward to in the Rogue Trader gameplay. Or what brings you to the table.

Excluding story and the other players of course. What about the setting appeals to you.

Edit: Opened up a new RT game on Rpol. Called: The void between the stars.

Looking for players to join.

Re: RT: Players needed

I have an opportunity in my Rogue Trader game for a new player to take on an NPC, whom I am now thinking will be more interesting as a PC.

The character is a female astropath who is blatantly hiding on the ship under a false identity.  Exactly what she is hiding from has yet to be revealed, but has been heavily implied.  (It begins with an 'I' ;) )

Although there is some backstory to the NPC, the character has not been in the game for long and so there is ample opportunity to personalise her.

If anyone is interested, please have a look at the game and send me an RTJ to discuss it. :)

(For info, the character appears during the Port Wander thread).

Thanks,

Tylorva


UPDATE:  Aaaaand this position has now been filled. :)

Re: RT: Players needed

Wow. Is it me, or has all the 40K games fill up ludicrously quick? Been having a hard time getting into a game just because it closes by the time I come up with a decent character request. Not really complaining, just wow...
