IC: Slow-Paced Rogue Trader Campaign

Going to try and run a slow-paced Rogue Trade campaign once more, if there's interest?

It would be premised around the creation of the Warrant and Dynasty then establishing what the player characters roles would be. Our focus would be inward on their starship and family, as well as outward on the opportunities for profit in the Expanse. Potentially the campaign style would be Void Caravan, with an NPC Rogue Trader or Warrant Holder, or Troupe, with players taking on characters in the Rogue Trader's cadre as much as possessing a role aboard their starship (i.e. companion, bodyguard, etc).

Doubling up on careers will be possible (i.e. happy for more than one of any career, except Rogue Trader). Alternate careers will be permitted, subject to being aligned to the Warrant and Dynasty. No Xenos, other than maybe Kroot or Eldar. No Chaos. Characters may start higher than Rank 1.

This is of interest to me if you are willing to help me learn the system.

Aye, happy to in principle. Are you familiar with the setting? Do you have any of the rulebooks?

I'd be interested to try Rogue Trader.  I know the setting but not the system - starting from that ground level would be interesting.
