I kind of like the old beaky space marines.

Although they were my introduction to the 40k universe by way of Rogue Trader (the original name of what is now known as 40k).

I wonder … why hasn’t GW created a skirmish game using Rogue Trader as inspiration ?
Imagine Core space with 40k flavour.
Two (or more) teams of (human) traders or eldar corsairs  fighting over scraps while having to avoid the armies that happen to be fighting at that location.

Or an all-Ork variant … OrkCry with Orks fighting over teef(tm) to see who is the meanest and greenest of them all.
That one could definitely be set in both AoS and 40k, ’cause nothing ever changes for them 😀
