All righty, then! I'll run Rogue Trader. You are among the rare few permitted to freely explore beyond the boundaries of the Imperium in search of profit and new lands. You're the highest-ranking crew of a ship more than a mile long, crewed by tens of thousands... may the God-Emperor have mercy on their souls.
I'm going to run the intro adventure from the core book. I have some reading do to, as the core is about 380 pages of dense text....
I was thinking mornings/early afternoons are the ideal time as well. Mornings would be best since we could finish up and still have time to hit the dealer room, play other games, get drunk etc. Maybe we could do one session Friday and the other one Sunday.
Denis, do you have this game? If so you could help me a lot by being familiar with the rules, especially the character creation rules so that we can get that done reasonably quickly. We should try and get that done the night before we play.
Enron, you can help by putting together a dark, moody, technogothic soundtrack that evokes the adventure and terror implicit of being in deep space, with only a thin shell of metal protecting you and the thousands of souls under your protection from the terrors of the Warp.
Rude you can help by putting together a theme song -- will send some lyrics over soon.
I'm pretty excited!
