Aside from the obvious bits (Who you play as), what are the major differences? Which would be the easiest to get into? I took a look at the RT rule book, and though I hate to admit it, was completely lost on character creation

character creation is a fairly big one, rogue trader and dark heresy aren't too differnt, both being very class based. Black crusade gives you a lot more freedom, in theory, due to how you aquire skills etc. (note: freedom isn't always a good thing as it can mean people spread out too much instead of moving into a role.) theme etc can also be fairly differnt, as the settings are designed with differnt ideas in mind. Ultimatly go with what theme intreasts you the most. that said if dark heresy intreasts you and your able to wait, the second edition is out this year which should offer improvements in gameplay.

Opinions are not facts please don't confuse the two
