nice. I think its starting to come together now :D.

I'll see if I can update the fleet list tomorrow, and add some bits of the fluff written by Yuber.

Edit 1. Remebered that I want to do some construction work on my modelrailroad tomorrow so I at the moment updating the fleet lists.

I found the Tarrelian Carrack, but we don't have rules for those. Should I remove it from the list or can we come up with some stats?

Edit 2. I've just uploaded the new fleet list. I'm off to bed now.

cheers

That?s looks great.

I will have an in depth look later. I think the upgrade lists may need some refinement or removals. This to prevent people from calling it cheesy upgrades.

Now we only need the following to complete this Project: Rogue Traders ? Book I:

? stats for the xenos vessels need to be added
? stats for the armed cargo vessels need to be added
? stats for the transport vessels need to be added
? pictures, as many as possible, as good as possible
? thorough check

Then Warp Rift is ready for it.

Then we can start (re-start): Rogue Traders ? Book II: The Campaign/Career

I have several pictures of my rogue trader fleet, including a trade galleon, merchantman two lorcha's and several escorts. Shalll I email them to you? I removed the pictures from Fleet list version 5 because the file became to big to upload on the boards.

By the way, do we leave the Legendary Traders for Book II? Seems fitting to me.

Seems fine to me leaving them out.

And yeah, mail them at: horizon@epic40k.co.uk

Oh, and I'm fiddling some point costs as some recalculating was odd. So I'll upload an adjusted one soon.

I'm reading and getting out the typos of the last document. By the way:

"I wonder why even a Rogue Trader would be so foolish to use part of an Ork Hulk for one of his vessels"
               Captain Michelov of the HDMS Thanatos

:D :D :D good! Although being the 40k universe, i would have finished it with "just before being destroyed by the Green Hide"  or something that way.

Hope i get to take some kind of good pictures for a change :( . I think my camera is cursed!

Upload the corrected version if possible. I'm adjusting the weapon options for the Trade Galleon. I want to even out all 3 options.

If that's okay with you?

hmm, well upload the new document with the new weapon loadouts and I'll give you my two eurocents

@Yuber: HDMS Thanatos is my much feared and praised Mars class battlecruiser, so i don't want it destroyed ;-) ( I'll change the name..)

hmmm. Yes cool, sure makes "pimping-thy-ship" a bit less fiddly now that all the options are equally expensive.

BTW We need names for those options, perhaps we could name them after (in)famous vessels. So that, for example, the option III for the trade galleon would become the Dominus Astra Pattern and such? Makes the fleet list a bit more fluffy.

Edit. I'll update the fleet list with these changes right away.

Edit2. Uploaded version 6 of the fleet list

Edit3. Update with correct points costs for the Merchantman

You forgot to lower the upgrades cost for the Merchantman (speed & turning) to 10pts.

Minor, no need to fix it right away, do it in a next one.

Yuber,

you got some cool pics for the article?


And I had this idea:

Warp Rift 17: Rogue Trader fleet
Warp Rift 18: Legendary Traders
Warp Rift 19: Campaign?

Then a seperate PDF like Eldar MMS for Rogue Traders.

About the campaign:
will it be a system to start as a low trader and grow up to a famous one
or a campaign setting in which Rogue Traders have a big part?

Yuber,

I got a lot of pictures and two BR before my computer crashed and died last friday  :(  . Anyway my pictures tend to suck  :(  Any idea about what i could do with them? maybe if i had a flat, matt black surface...

Anyway, the BR were done using a version of the rules which was not last (that's what happens when you get to play the same evening in which a revision of the rules is published :S)

Anyway, i will try to catch up again next week. Wish me luck!
