From the earlier posts, it seems like Dante is a leader highly respected by both the soldiers and the people, and trying to remove him would only create a sizeable void that would be very difficult to fill. He is a hero of the planet, we need to play to that.
Varius is all about using the best parts for a give machine - Dante is a great leader of these people, let's help him rise to that point. Let's speak to his good qualities, his strengths, and see if we can find a common ground that way.

Fellow Rogue Traders,
A short missive to advise that I shall be on a brief holiday to P*~&et starting tomorrow and returning on Monday. It's highly likely that I shall be non responsive during the period, though I assure you that I shall return to efficacy thereafter.
Regards,
Navis

I've decided to make my large updates for my games this weekend and then try and maintain pacing throughout next week. I'm just starting to come up for air at work today so I think the worst is behind me.
I have returned safely to reality and it is slowly settling in... but that also means that whence we get going again I shall be in attendance.

Welcome back.
We'll get this show back on track and shifted to high gear, hopefully soon.

This games next on the update list. Sorry, finally got some time from work and then I was sick...

Move to my country. We have a four day weekend coming up :-)
Your Humble Narrator
Things began to calm down at work for good now I believe. I'll be maintaining a more steady pace now I believe. Hope I haven't lost anyone!

Not here... honest.

I believe we may have lost Varius. He hasn't posted in his own game in a couple weeks. Spinningdice (Irena) posted earlier this week, so they're still around. And that's everybody.

Just getting back here, chaos in life. Will post today once caught up on game posts.
Your Humble Narrator
Good to see your still with us.
Guys, sorry once more for the slowdown. I'm currently hiring another staff member and my most promising applicant is coming in for an interview tomorrow. Assuming it goes well we'll hire him which will take some pressure off me and hopefully let me catch up.

Still here... & still snowed under. If I can't get things moving this weekend I might just call time of death, which makes me very sad but work is just eating up my whole life of late. I did not anticipate the extent to which it would do so.

I'm sorry I haven't made any kind of announcement sooner. I'm currently working 70-80 hours a week and covering more than one position at work on top of that. I have had 0 mental energy to even think about booting up Maptools and whats left of my conciousness at the end of each day usually goes into destressing myself. Running and playing in as many PbP's as I do (formerly did more like at the moment) is simply too much on top of it.
I'd like to confirm my hiatus and set a date to come back re-energised. Hiring a new IT Manager at work, hopefully by early November which will take the pressure off.
I'm going to work on coming back and making regular updates again from the 15th of November.
As for the games I am a player in rather than a GM, i'll do my best to post regularly.
Thanks for your patience thus far everyone. If I lose people as a consequence of all this I completely understand.

That works for me. Hope everything squares itself away for you. I look forward to picking it up again in November.

while we're waiting for AK to get up to speed, any1 here interested in playing a bit of DW?

Hi all. So sorry I let this game slide for so long. Hope your all still with me and i'm returning to daily updates starting today. PM's/Facebook messages going out right now.
Your Humble Narrator
Not quite got the time left to update tonight. Getting a little worried we haven't heard from Silas. I know Arannis is around, just struggling to make time for PbP with his studies right now.

Yes, for obvious reasons, the Rogue trader is a bit of a problem to loose.
I seem to recall that happening before...several times in a row too boot.
Your Humble Narrator
Tis a cursed role. Don't worry I can recruit or DMPC him if necessary. I was absent for quite some time we we'll give Radavel more too.

Yes sure, I'm not too worried.
Besides, I'd say it's more like 40K is cursed on this forum than the role of rogue trader.
Aye - we'll see... ultimately I think we could reshuffle either the First Mate or Seneschal and cover the position reasonably well if needed.

There is a large battle coming up. People tend to die in those. Some heroic deaths could do the story well.
Your Humble Narrator
A mere battle? Nay, sir, a war!

A war sir, is a terrible thing. But sir, for the right person, it will indeed be a terribly PROFITANLE thing.
And we are extra lucky, since we get money, fame AND experience from it.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I intend to live to claim it.

And while a battle is an easy thing to win, there are always casualties in war.

Hello there guys. I know I have been very very silent indeed, but I am still around. I am studying for my medical residency's board certification exam (I think those are the relevant terms in the United States), so I have neither time nor energy in abundance and the rather meticulous planning of a war needs both, especially under a game system I am just getting familiar with. I will read the relevant posts once my head is clearer and do my best to post and hopefully contribute. I hope you understand.
Hi Guys,
I'm officially dropping out of this, I have too many RL issues at the moment, and I'm not really feeling this character at the moment.
Apologies.
Your Humble Narrator
Looks like we're 3 down unless Kavro also re-surfaces, 4 down if we include Castor as on hiatus.
:/. Rogue Trader's always a nightmare to keep going on these forums. My own lack of updates are also to blame I know.
Trien, Ludicus, Iago, Yosarni, Arannis- happy to continue?
Male Human
Sure, I am willing to give it a try. But I will be pretty silent for the next ten days to two weeks, basically as silent as I have been so far.
As for the empty spots, you could give re-recruiting a try? Perhaps ask on some of your other games if anyone might be interested?
