@Enzayne@Roosan@Sarpedon Let's be fair, the Tyranids probably will fuck up literally everything in the galaxy by the time they finish passing through... except maybe the Necrons, since they don't eat those guys. That said, I believe the policy about xenos on a Rogue Trader ship is as follows:
So, yes, you two could probably play as an Ork and an Eldar or whatever. The rules say you can, so.
- All humanoid races will be considered - including Abhumans and the like. Those wishing to take part in the role of a Xenos character will need a darned good reason, and a darned good profile, the same going tenfold for those who might wish to role-play as a member of the Astartes. What I do not want are any Necrons, Tyranids, undercover or overt agents of the Inquisition...just use your logic for this one.
- I hope for a larger human-to-alien ration, if this tips too far toward being a Xenoscentric RP then I shall reign it back.
- Just to reiterate an earlier point; no super-human killing machines, characters are to begin anywhere from a complete novice to a veteran or someone who has 'seen things' but no more for the moment. Guard veterans, experienced combatants, and so forth.
So, yes, you two could probably play as an Ork and an Eldar or whatever. The rules say you can, so.
