Rules Commentary

2 Q&As

For the Psychic Cabal firefight ploy, does the SORCERER operative also gain any benefits the other SORCERER operative has from the Boons of Tzeentch faction rule (e.g. Twist of Fate)?

No.

If a friendly operative selected for the Temporal Flux rule is activated within, or ends its activation within, an area in which it cannot use PSYCHIC additional rules (e.g. NOVITIATE CONDEMNOR Null Rod), can that operative be removed and set back up as a result of the Temporal Flux rule?

No to both.
