Blackstone Fortress: Traitor Command

I've been collecting and playing this game for a while. With lockdown now in full swing I suspect I'll be playing it a little more. Cunningly the game is actually co-operative in nature and designed to be played against a card drawn/dice driven AI. Only when you have 5 players does one of them actually play the baddy. Because of this it can be played solo with no change to the rules.


It also has a campaign system and provides envelopes to put your characters into 'suspended animation' whilst you pack the game away.


Interestingly, GW have furnished Blackstone Fortress with a collection of villains which have been part of the meta but not supplied with miniatures. There are now Traitor Guardsman, Ogryns, Commissars, Beastmen and Psykers prowling the corridors and all come with WH40K stats.


As well as the base set there are also several add-ons and the troops below come from Blackstone Fortress: Traitor Command. Everything except the metallic are done with Contrast paints.
