Check out marcowargamer’s video on YouTube featuring Peter Berneiser from Pegasus Spiele giving an overview of Talisman: Legendary Tales at Gen Con.
It shows us some more aspects of the game, including some new information about the travel die (teleporting!) and shows some new counters and rewards!
I hope it’s not too long before I can play the game!
The entry on BoardGameGeek for Talisman: Legendary Tales continues to produce more new information about the new game from Pegasus Spiele!
It seems that the game will include double-sided or doubled-up character cards, as there are six characters shown so far with both male and female counterparts for the Wizard, Dwarf, Warrior, Troll, Elf & Prophet(ess).
Will the other characters be included, or will they perhaps come as expansions or promotional items? We shall have to wait and see.
In other news, I noticed that some images of board spaces (or maybe cards, as we have no idea whether there is an actual board or not yet!) had been posted to the artist’s portfolio page. There is a concept piece in black and white, along with a woods scene which is brightly coloured and in keeping with the character art.
So many questions… Is there a board or is it made up of cards/hexes? Will we get character minis, busts or good old standees? When can I get my grubby mitts on a copy?
Well, at least we know the answer to one of those questions as the game has now been added to the BoardGameGeek preview for Gen Con 2018 as FOR SALE at the show!
Talisman: Legendary Tales on BoardGameGeek
Talisman: Legendary Tales from Pegasus Spiele has just been added to the Gen Con 2018 Preview over on BoardGameGeek.
Not only will the game be on show there, but you’ll also be able to buy it! Get yourself over to Stand #2013 and snag yourself a copy.
You’ll also be able to playtest the new Talisman RPG with none other than the designer, Ian Lemke!
Now who do I know that’s going?
As they do every year, Fantasy Flight Games have put up a video to show some of the goings on over the first day of Gen Con.
You can see (if you are sneaky – check out around 01:55 after Anton starts to talk about the new Star Wars RPG Force & Destiny Beta) that The Woodland expansion for the Revised 4th Edition of Talisman is on display in the infamous “glass cabinets of wonder” at the FFG stand, but as yet I have no information as to whether it is actually for sale there or not.
If anyone would like to send over some close-up shots of the display, I would be much obliged and can put them up on the site for people to see.
I’d also be interested in finding out if there is any mention of Talisman or Relic in the annual FFG In-Flight Report that details the company’s plans for the coming year.
