Steve: Wow, done already!?
Zack: Steve, we've only scratched the surface of the WTF awaiting us in Rogue Trader.
Steve: That's fine by me, this book is way sweeter than I remember. Space clams? Future frogs? How can you not love it?
Zack: Be careful what you wish for, Steve. Next week we will take a look at all the many things that made Rogue Trader lame.
Steve: I remember I read some novel back when Rogue Trader and that red book were the only Warhammer 40,000 books out. It was about an Inquisitor and he was like fighting a giant octopus that they were going to use to resurrect the emperor or something. And then he had sex. It was awesome.
Zack: Yeah, you're talking about one of the most infamously bad books ever written for Warhammer.
Steve: A squat was one of the main characters. And I think the Inquisitor dude ended up getting trained to be an eldar or something. It was so sweet.
Zack: This is why I hate you.
Steve: Give it up, you love me and you love Rogue Trader. Dude, don't even try to be anti-space clam. It's freaking space clam!Zack: I don't mind what they do in the privacy of their own homes. I just don't want my children being exposed to the space clam agenda.
