The Warhammer 40K universe has always interested me, spending hundreds of dollars on miniatures I don't have the talent, time or patience to paint. This is a pretty spectacularly good game. Whilst we haven't tried it, Rogue Trader would probably be a better system with a bit more freedom - being a rogue trader after all is a bit more vague than being an Inquisitor's patsy - but after Dark Heresy I just have major reservations about FFG's 40k RPGs. The universe of 40k, while immense and well-written, is lacking in specifics that are really required for a GM to plan out a campaign - it's hard for a hive to have a personality when it is literally just an enormous mound of buildings. My general dislike for d100 systems notwithstanding, Dark Heresy just has a lot of general issues that rankled me - our party spent weeks at a time sitting around not doing anything after a firefight because it would take a month for our combat character who took all the bolts and lasers to the face to heal back up. Being railroaded into being (basically) a member of the Inquisition (well not technically but under the employ of one) sort of pigeonholes what the GM can do in terms of plot, and what the players can do in general.

You will never know fame nor reward, yet if you stand resolute your deeds will be whispered to the God-Emperor of Mankind and your name will be revered for millennia The Dark Heresy core rulebook contains everything you need to start your roleplaying adventure in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. You will tread where others fear, venturing to distant planets, ancient space hulks, and the unsavory depths of the under-hive. You stand in the front line of a great and secret war where your duty is to hunt out the foul stench of heresy, the vile alien, and the twisted influence of Chaos. You will never know You are an Acolyte in the service of the Emperors' Inquisition.
