I have been entertaining this idea for a campaign involvong all three games. Each player could, if they chose, play three characters, an Inquistor or Cadre member, a Rogue Trader or Retinue member, and a Adeptus Astartes. Think of the possiblities, hardcore investigation and roleplaying, space combat and Xenos smashing! It would be alot of work but it could be awesome. You could run it an adventure at a time.
It is a lot of work.
And yes, it is awesome.
Oh yes. The possibilities...this really needs more thought.
Plus the crusade setting is perfect for a militarily oriented RT Lord Captain. This might give FFG the excuse to add those larger ship classes and more combat ships i.e. fighters and torpedo boats.

The Rogue Trader has his hands full doing logistics ( running supplies and troops to contested planets ), exploration ( mapping warp lanes and planets ) and maybe some privateering. It does not help that the Inquisitor would like to use his ship to get to some mudball called Ordell IV...
The Inquisitor is busy with inserting intelligence teams, gathering information and playing the behind-the-scenes politics of the Crusade ( "Lord-Commander. My sources have sighted a known heretic on Ordell IV. I need you to route some Fleet elements there." )
The Deathwatch team is doing one long-range recon mission after the other. Followed by occasional extractions of Ordo agents or assassinations of high profile targets. Apparently the Inquisitor has asked your team to escort a cell of his Acolytes to a planet deep behind Xenos lines. A planet called Ordell IV.

My regular group consists of myself and 3 players.
I fully intend to run a campaign with an inquisitor, a Rogue Trader and a Deathwatch marine.
That is what I've been planning ever since the first announcement from BI about the trilogy of games. I even have maps and notes already started for such a game.
Oh, I can't wait...no GMing plan has had me this excited since I was at high school....
I have taken Knowledge to be my province, for Knowledge itself is Power.
Finally, it all starts to pull together and make sense. My interest peaked a while after RT was released but I think Deathwatch might provide the vital third leg that I was looking for. I have no desire to provide one dimensional space marine fests for players. I'm sure you can have a bit of fun for a while with this kind of campaign but really, it won't last.
Thanks to all the playtesters' opinions, I really look forward to more in depth opinions especially in regard to mixed player games!
Han Solo shot first!
back when Black Industries was publishing these game they had the idea for a trilogy of rpgs that were completely inter-compatable. so if FFG kept to this idea, which I'm sure they did, the answer is yes.
