That would be taking the easy way out.  I'd much rather invent a sector and actors and a campaign from whole cloth on a couple days notice.  I've got ideas.

By the way, you're all probably going to hate my ship-design-tarot-thing.  I'll consider it weeding out the ingrates.

[WorkerDrone]

Actually the whole tarot thing will hilarious and fun.

[Aqizzar]

I think "tarot" might be misleading.  The operation is a little different, but the principle is the same.

Spoiler: Here's a taste. (click to show/hide)

If anybody wants to try to pretty it up, be my guest.  I think tinypic fuzzed it up though.

Anyway.  As long as we have the thread to do it with, feel free to pitch ideas about what the sector should look like.  I'll be using a lot of my own concepts, but it's a big galaxy to fill.  And if you've got a particular preference on a campaign style (war, trading, investigation, exploring, diplomacy, or whatever) go ahead and voice it now if you want.

I'll play! I'd help design the space-ship if I can get an idea of how big it's supposed to be. Speedy cargo ship? Space behemoth? Small commercial ship?

[WorkerDrone]

Generally Space-Behemoth, War, and Plot Driven settings are the most "exciting" but the problem with all three of these is the following.

The Game Master gives you something awesome. This may never happen. No space behemoth for you, enjoy your marginally smaller space rowboat.

The Game Master is perfectly alright with giving you gameplay, on the downside, he's a lazy bastard so;

PLOT takes a hit and you get marginally less of this.

So yeah it's exactly like MMOs.

Pick two.

[Aqizzar]

Why are you speaking in generalizations?  This is me you're talking about.  I'm, y'know, here, talking to you guys.

I do my best man.  Which may not be much, but it's not like I try to make stuff suck.

[WorkerDrone]

Sorry, guess I'm stuck in rant mode still.

Anyway, no no, sign me up, It'll be great either which way it goes.

[Luke_Prowler]

This is going to be awesome...

[Emperor_Jonathan]

Sign me up too!

[Archangel]

Sign me up, assuming I don't have to have the rules.

[Keita]

AH HA! That was were the blitter was hiding (in a box), finally found my copy that I bought off of someone for a tenner XD

[Cthulhu]

I was one of the first people to sign up!

Also, I call Navigator!

Also also, in b4 everyone picks arch-militant

[CJ1145]

Count me in. Also, does Rogue Trader have the ability to encounter basically anything in WH40k canon? If so, it'd be interesting running across a Space Marine ship...

[Cthulhu]

Originally Space Marines were a rogue trader's military.  I haven't gotten far enough to see if they still carry them.  That'd be rad, though, having Space Marines.

[Kashyyk]

I like the idea of running across a war-torn sector of space, but I want our jobs to be mainly firefly-esque, taking any kind of job that comes, all sorts of types.

Also Aqizzar, I have no idea what that image is meant to represent, could you explain it?
