| Rouge Traitor!!

All of you that'll be at Kubla -- I'm really fired up about Rogue Trader! I think the more setup we can do before the con, the better, because character creation is pretty involved (but fortunately, pretty fun). I sent out a Google spreadsheet invite to a doc that contains a brief, "good enough for the con" description of all the classes available in the game. If you guys can read through it and put an X by the classes you're interested in then we can figure out who is playing what.

If more than one person is super excited about a particular class then it's OK to double up on certain classes. The only real requirement/restriction is that there should be one (only one) Rogue Trader. This is the guy who is the Lord-Captain of the ship. The two psychic classes and the cyborg class are a little more complex. If anyone wants to play those classes it would really help if those players do a little background reading.

After we've got that sorted, the next step will be to generate everybody's Origin Path -- this determines a bunch of your starting abilities beyond what your class gives you, and also a lot about your character's history.

Malifaux
Denis -- which of the Malifaux starters do you have? Build 'em, paint 'em and bring 'em to Kubla! After I got laid off I did some drunk purchasing and picked up the Lilith and Rasputina starters. It looks pretty fun game, sorta Doomtown the skirmish game.
