Checkout the long-lost Organized Play document from GW’s past that strived to ensure all gamers had a great time: The Rogue Trader Tournament

The Old RTT Award for Overall, dubbed the Golden Chicken
These events were called Rogue Trader Tournaments chiefly because the kits were sold or downloaded by independent game stores (i.e. Rogue Traders).
Chief amongst the kit was the Gamer’s Bill of Rights which you can see below:

Bio: Spikey Bits started with Rob trying to stay motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects and share his knowledge with others during the early blogging era. Virginia restless, miniature painter & cat dad. He blames LEGOs as there was something about those little-colored blocks that started it all.
Scale model hobbyist in the 80s, miniature wargamer, and trading card player ever since. He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy since 5th Edition, but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of both pewter and resin.
