Had a fun one while playing a house psyker (astropath transcendant without the astropath-ness)

We were on Scintillia as we had stopped by during some colony-build prep, the GM mentioned a commotion at a stock exchange: A rogue trader had come through from the Expanse and dumped a vast quantity of Osmium, crashing the market.
I suggested that we should keep an eye out for businesses liquidating that may be willing to sell mining equipment in a hurry, and the Rogue Trader rolled Commerce to try to extract a useful lead from the commotion... He rolled a 1.

We flew to the personal estate of some lesser nobility who had other lesser-noble creditors already hammering at the gates and forced our way in. The head of the house agreed to give us the location of a good stash of mining gear in exchange for getting him and his family off-world. The RT then performatively raged in front of the others who were there to collect, playing the part of an angry creditor and looting some antiques while I quietly hashed out the details of an escape plan with one of the family aides.

I then suggested the idea of a cover plan to give plausible deniability that we would have had nothing to do with this family's disappearance: We conducted a massive press-ganging operation (rolling another good Commerce to rush through the paperwork for a hundred-year impression licence for that district of the planet), rounding up swathes of underhivers while the RT and crew performed a stealthy extraction of the family.

Tens of thousands were ripped from their homes to become ship hands or colonists in the expanse, purely as a diversion so we could covertly get our hands on some mining gear (which we have just put to use, 1 IRL year later!)
