Now, I’m sure you’re wondering “Why not always draw 3 cards as the Traitor?” Well, some of the cards in both decks have extra effects, like “End the phase” or “The Traitors can cast an additional power” or they give a bonus to the other side. The Loyalist player simply flips over cards from their Willpower deck – each player may draw up-to 3 cards per power (more on this) and the Traitor can only cast 3 powers per turn. The Traitor player chooses which “coven” is casting and what square is the target, and which power they are casting.

Psychic Phase is basically a mini-card game (think of the card game “War”) where players reveal cards from their respective Warp or Willpower Deck.

It plays similar to both Overkill and BoC and it’s really easy to pick-up and play. If you’ve played Deathwatch: Overkill, Betrayal at Calth, Execution Force or even Space Hulk, you’ll be fine. It’s got excellent models and some really nice accessories – but how does it stack-up in terms of game play?
