| What started out last year as an attempt to build a whole new army based on the zombie-plagued world of Hydra Minoris has evolved into a dual-tracked project to create two scenarios games for 40K. The effort evolved mainly because 1 - creating new armies and making everything quasi-balanced is best done on a smaller scale than most 40K games and 2 - the White Dwarf articles by Jerm have got my imagination going (see the "Old War Stories" articles).
So, this Rogue Trader project now involves two scenarios. First, a rag-tag group of mercs assembled by a Rogue Trader to investigate the goings-on at the Imperial outpost and scientific research lab on Ymgarl. This will be the 1st Imperial encounter w/ genestealers and will involve the Cult. Think of it as a 40K version of "Aliens." The second scenario involves a Cult of Redemption and their quest to destroy a new demonic cult on their planet. The Redemption part will be easy, but I haven't begun the demonic forces yet.
