Evz Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Hey guys. In my fluff my Astartes have gone renegade (due to the fact the Inquisition didn't really like their cannibalistic rituals) and have since found refuge with a Rogue Trader fleet. In return, the Astartes serve the Rogue Trader in his missions across the stars while also bringing the fight to the enemies of the Imperium. My question is: how best to represent a Rogue Trader warband using the Agents book, that I can legally field beside my marines? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plasmablasts Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 The Inquisitorial Henchmen Warband is probably the most useful for you: Inquisitor - Rogue Trader Henchmen - henchmen/crew Crusaders - armsmen with boarding shields Death Cult Assassins - more or less as is; some form of highly skilled bodyguard/mercenaries Arcoflagellants - weaponised servitors Astropaths - as is Tech Priest Enginseer - as is Priest - his/her personal chaplain? The Aeronautica Imperialis detachment would probably fit in quite thematically (rebranded as the RTs personal airforce). Could use the Adeptus Astra Telepathica Psykana Division for his/her Astropathic Choir. Addendum: the Ordo Xenos Inquisitor would seem to me like the best fit for the RT, with access to the sort of toys of dubious provenance that a RT would be likely to pick up.

ddarz Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 The heralds of Ruin Kill team group has rules for Rogue traders and their outfits Not exactly legal but very thematic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evz Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 Nice! I'll definitely have to check those out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casb1965 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 You could look at the Castellans of the Imperium Detachment in the Fall of cadia book, that allows for Inquisitors as HQ supported by Space Marines, Guard and Henchmen. 2 HQ and 4 Troops choices compulsory the rest pretty much as you wish :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishagu Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Castellans of the Imperium would be the way to go imo, and you can even pick your Chapter Tactics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
