[QUOTE="Tantavalist, post: 8557770, member: 7030056"] Use the revised Stars Without Number RPG rules. For Warhammer 40,000 you should also grab the Codex of the Black Sun supplement that adds improved/expanded rules for spellcasting and psychic demons (Shadows) to the system. Go to DrivethruRPG and there's even a free version that's hundreds of pages long that should tell you whether you like the system or not. As someone who has a tattered copy of the original "Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader" on his shelves that I got as a child the feeling I got from SWN was very much that of the first editon 40K; not quite as much the later stuff. Making a direct 40K conversion would be quite a bit of work but SWN would definitely produce something that feels 40K-adjacent in the same way as Fading Suns and similar works. Definitely look at it before trying anything based on D&D 5e or Pathfinder as the SWN system is both easier to use and works better in play. [/QUOTE]
