(More customer reviews)Lure of the Expanse is an important product for the Rogue Trader line because it serves to set the stage for GMs who read the core rulebook and then wonder how to write adventures for their players in this setting. Rogue Trader isn't quite the same as other RPGs, the power level of characters is higher and the stakes required in adventures must scale accordingly. This is quite different from the "player characters as lackeys" that is pretty common in other RPGs where it is fairly easy to start small and grow the conflicts as the player characters gain wealth and power. In Rogue Trader they already have more wealth and power than 99% of humanity so the trick is finding out how to make sessions fun and challenging and that is where this book serves as both a guide and set of examples.
The three adventures contained inside highlight most of the various rules outlined in the core book so you can expect ship-to-ship space combat, exploration and political maneuvering galore. There is plenty of conflict and the normal gritty 40k vibe comes through loudly both in how the stories are presented and the tasks they set forth for the players. The missions are not black and white, good versus bad, so there is ample opportunity for players to delve into moral equivalence and personal corruption as they solve the problems they are presented with in true 40k fashion.
