I know that Warhammer 40K has been around for a decade now at least, with the start of Rogue Trader and the table top war game. Dark Heresy is going to use the brand new RPG rule published by Black Industries and due out on Jan 25th.

The Black Industry website has some good information on the Calixis Sector and on products to buy, etc. Please avoid downloading any of the module stuff as I plan to use them to get our feet wet with chaos skum blood.

Wikipedia has tons and tons of articles about Warhammer 40K.

This one has some decent overview of the main branches of the Imperium of Man and such.

Here is a link to the one about the Inquisition.

Those links also offer up some new Character Sheets, writable PDF sheets. However I have put up an Excell Spreadsheet version of the character sheet in the Brennor's Download area that I made. I suggest we use that one, but the PDF editable one is also okay with me.

Here is another gret Fan Site, thanks to Illeuven for finding this and pointing it out. They have a character generator, plenty of downloads, and other information.

http://www.darkreign40k.com/#

They have a suppliment for download there "ADEPTUS ASTARTES" or the Space Marines! It is nicely laid out and looks great, I haven't read it all yet, but it appears nice.

Download it here: Adeptus Astartes

This hasn't been updated in a while, since the change from publishers.

The offical publisher site for the WH40K: Dark Heresy site if now here:
http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_ ... sp?eidm=50

It looks really nice (has sound so work folks mute your speakers).

Their product page lists all the books available, several of them are adventures and such for the GM, but anyone interested should check it out just in case.

There is a Version 3 on the Errata now out, not sure when this came out, but JP pointed me toward it. So I'm posting it now. I'll do my best to reference it when the situation calls for. There are some updates for Career Paths so you may want to inspect it for that. This also has the Errata for the Inquisitor's Handbook with it.

I've added a bunch of things to the "Imperial Library" including some new books and new adventures. I ask you don't look at the adventure things, as I might use them, but Ascension and Radical's Handbook look fun!
