step, and page references are included to refer back to the

core rulebook.

However, creating the ship is really only the ﬁ rst step. Once

all the nuts and bolts are in place, the GM should sit down with

his players and the entire group should determine their ship’s

history. The easiest place to start devising its history is the

result the group rolled on Table 8–2: Past Histories. Obviously,

if a ship was wrested from a space hulk, or contains strange and

exotic xenos technology, it will factor greatly into the ship’s

story. However, other aspects of the starship’s construction can

be just as important. For example, a starship’s Machine Spirit

Oddity can prove an excellent story point. What adventures

resulted in a frigate having a nose for trouble, and what travails

did the stoic light cruiser have to endure? Beyond that, even

a starship’s Components can provide story hooks, especially

if those Components are xenostech or archeotech in origin.

What dark deals did the ship’s former captain make to outﬁ t

his vessel with a ghost ﬁ eld, and could it be a source of trouble

if the Inquisition suddenly takes an interest?

A good background story helps bring a ship and its crew

to life, and also provides the GM with any number of plot

hooks and building blocks for further adventures.

On the last page, this supplement has a “cheat sheet” for

starship combat, for quick references in the heat of battle.

Note: A copy of the R O G U E T R A D E R Core Rulebook is

required to use this supplement.

“The Guard tanks crush foes beneath their treads, the mighty Titans

lay waste to worlds, but our voidships establish our ascendency over

the very stars.”

–Aspyce Chorda, against the pirate reavers of Iniquity

In R O G U E T R A D E R , the party’s starship is more than a mere

means of transportation. It is intended to be an additional

member of the party, with a design that is unique to its

Rogue Trader and his crew. More than that, a starship also

has its own quirks, idiosyncrasies, and personality traits.

Sometimes these make sense, like the cruiser that bristles

with martial pride and eagerly engages its foes. However,

sometimes the strangest combinations—a skittish warship

or a wrothful transport with a death cult in Hold 24—

can make for the most interesting background stories and

roleplaying opportunities.

This supplement is intended to aid the players and GM in

the starship creation process, by breaking it down into a step-

by-step process. Charts detail the available choices at every

Starship

Construction

Summary

T o begin constructing a R O G U E T R A D E R starship, follow

STEP 3: DEVELOPING

PERSONALITY

these steps:

Roll once on Table 8–1: Machine Spirit Oddities ( R O G U E

T R A D E R page 197) and once on Table 8–2: Past Histories

( R O G U E T R A D E R page 198).

Be sure to record each on the starship character sheet, and

make note of the affects they will have during the starship’s

construction, as well as the affects they will have on the

end result.

STEP 2: SELECT STARSHIP

When selecting the hull, make sure it costs less Ship Points

than the Explorers have available. To properly outﬁ t their

vessel, the Explorers will likely need at least ﬁ ve or more

extra Ship Points after they have selected their Hull. Once

the hull has been selected, take note of how much Space the

hull provides for the starship’s Components.

STEP 4: SELECTING

ESSENTIAL COMPONENTS

P O W E R A N D S P A C E

When adding Components to a starship, the Explorers

must be aware of their starship’s available power and

space. Both are ﬁ xed stats (power is provided by the

Plasma Drive Component, while space is provided by

the Hull Component). Most Components require a

certain amount of both to operate. The total required

power and required space of all Components should

not exceed the available amounts (see the penalties for

doing so in R O G U E T R A D E R page 191).

Choose one and only one Component from each of the

categories.

Make note of how much power is provided by the Plasma

Drive. Then, note how much power the other Components

use, how much space all the Components use, and how many

Ship Points were spent on the Components.
