Anton Zerbe is almost my name lol!

Jokes aside I'm glad Owlcat gets to make another 40k game, Rogue Trader was great.

What's next? Deathwatch or Only War? I can't wait!
He says this because each Owlcat 40K CRPG is taken from a different 40K TTRPG. These are the first two:
Dark Heresy (role-playing game) (2008)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Heresy_(role-playing_game)
Rogue Trader (role-playing game) (2009)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_Trader_(role-playing_game)
And here you can see all of them:
All these programmer minigames will be unlockable in Alex Kierkegaard's Battlemaster.
TBA.
P.S. I have no idea why the 40K setting needs multiple RPGs. The Pathfinder setting only has one. Maybe the 40K setting has so many planets/systems/cultures that it needs multiple rulebooks to cover them?
P.P.S. In the past I trashed Owlcat's Rogue Trader because I thought they wrote the rules. Now that I know they didn't, I am more positive towards it. They probably wrote the adventure though.
P.P.P.S. Unlike their Pathfinder games, both their 40K games have co-op.
