[Online][Rogue Trader][Roll20] Rogue Trader: Lost Legacy

So people here helped me a lot, and I am very grateful, so I wanted to share the recruitment with you here! The general premise is:

The Dynasty was hit by a terrible tragedy. The Rogue Trader is dead. Sarvus Trask in the process of building his demesne, decided to make a surprise attack on the Dynasty, killing their ruler and taking over all of their assets, under the pretense that the Dynasty was committing horrible acts against the Imperium. Of course, all of that fabricated.

But Dynasty’s flagship, moved by a mysterious protocol hidden in its machine spirit, escaped through the Warp to Port Wander, making Trask believe that it was gone in the Warp in a desperate attempt to escape.

The whole Dynasty was in shambles, all of the closest retinue of the Rogue Trader dead, himself horribly wounded and mentally distraught… But he could swear that he could hear the screams of anger, when the Warrant of Trade hidden in the Dynasty’s Palace turned out to be a fake.

Looking at the original Warrant of Trade, Old Seneshal began the repairs of the Flagship, and his quest to look for the last heir of the Dynasty, and replacements for their retinue.

I wrote SO MUCH in the recruitment post itself, but it's important for me to be very specific about everything that is important to me as a GM.

Take your time to think about it, you have around 2 weeks :D

Wrath & Glory question regarding progression

So second question, in case I won't be able to find any way to run DW by the book.

I like W&G mechanics, I never played it nor ran it, and I am kind of worried about picking it up. I like IM when I want to run inquisitorial games, but I struggle when I am thinking about running a game based on either Space Marines, or high level Rogue Trader.

My main problem is that based on my very surface level of knowledge about how the system works, I feel that there isn't enough variety for Space Marines on lower tiers (which is understandable) but basically, from what I understand, I have maybe 12/24 sessions tops for the characters to develop, and then bam the progression stops? At least a meaningful progression?

Question to people that ran and played W&G, do you feel like there isn't much potential for longer campaigns starting at higher tiers? Is there a room for mechanical progression? Do you get bored at higher tiers?

Deathwatch on VTT

So hi everyone, first post here (love the "No AI Content" rule <3) and I am jumping in with a recurring question from what I was able to research already.

I really want to run Deathwatch. I run games on Roll20 and on Foundry (through Forge), I am pretty versed at both, but for last couple of days I am struggling to find any details on how to run Deathwatch on modern vtts :( I found some old modules for Foundry, that I either can't use, or are not very helpful. On Roll20 while the sheet is not terrible, I would also like to allow my players to play a character from DH, and that is kinda impossible on that sheet.

I could run Wrath & Glory, but I also realize that there isn't as much granularity as I would like in this system. And adding a whole astartes layer to Imperium Maledictum doesn't sound like something I would enjoy doing.

So my question is - do any of you played/ran Deathwatch on VTT recently, and how did you achieve to do it?
