Made to Order Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader - Print On Demand

[Deus_Ex_Machina]

I received today my Rogue Trader book. Hooray! I can´t wait to do a battle report. Obviously it will take place on Shepherd III which is an Imperial Agriworld. 

 

The plot is that Farmer Joe´s ranch has been sacked by Bad Moonz. They want to turn his pig farm into a lucrative pork business with gene-enhanced, humongous pigs which deliver more tasty pork to the consumer. Being a conservative Bio-Farmer Joe was naturally appalled by the idea of doing big business with his piggies. He barricaded himself in his blast-proof cellar (panic room) and sent out a distress signal to anybody listening to help him out. Naturally the Iron Hands received his call and promised to lend him a hand to stop orkoid corporates ruin his peaceful farming life. Death to the Xenos!

 

Stuff which is missing for the scenario:

I have the marines and the orks although I need to build a cottage with a few fences first. A pig pen would be neat and maybe a visit to Schleich would be prudent to get some much needed pigs. In addition a nice patch of wet dirt where they can roll around would be fun too.

 

For all those who haven´t caught on this scenario will be a spoof of the classic Battle at the Barn battle report.  

 

 

Question:

GW released an ork with a pig back in the day. Are there any alternatives to such a model out there?

I was notified by GW that they shipped my copy of Rogue Trader.

Sorry to hear that it happened to you too. I emailed them already but at this stage they are probably immune to angry emails given the multitude they are receiving these days.

I received a reply from GW after I asked about Exemplary Battles. Hopefully they stay true to their word and I don't have to restort to scalpers to get a copy.

Just finished a re-read of this.  Equal parts nostalgia and weirdness, especially compared to the po-faced modern iteration of the game.

 

Now I want a combined Slaves to Darkness/Lost & the Damned follow up (and maybe an omnibus of whatever else is left over from that edition)

GW could do me a lot of financial harm if they started doing more oldhammer reprints - Angels of Death, 2nd and 3rd edition. I'd pick them all up.

And I know I could get them off ebay but finding one in good condition is a problem. And expensive.
