Rogue traders
Rogue Trade Elucia Vhane and her Starstriders seek to colonize new worlds in the name of the Empire's most powerful ruler. Your goal is to travel far beyond the threat of chaos that threatens to consume humanity. But nowhere is truly safe, as the vile feelers of corruption have followed them beyond the borders of the Empire. Can the Rogue Trader and the deadly specialists she has formed into a team defeat the hulking Vulgar Thrice-Cursed and his virulent band of mutant followers? Are the best of humanity equal to the vile gifts of the Dark Gods?
