Merry Christmas and an art update!

Posted on December 24, 2019 by jon@talismanisland.com in Announcements, Dungeon, Harbinger, Revised 4th Edition, Sale, Talisman

Just a short post before signing off for the holidays to wish all of the visitors to Talisman Island a very Merry Christmas and a properous New Year.

I wanted to update people with the news about the original Ralph Horsley artwork from the Revised 4th Edition of Talisman that Jean-Marie Baveux has had up for sale so that he can put some money aside for his daughters, Lola and Danaé, whilst he has been battling Merkel Cell Carcinoma this past year.

As I mentioned last month, Jean-Marie’s treatment has unfortunately not been successful and it is now just a matter of time before the inevitable.

A little bit of good news is that two of the paintings have now been sold, leaving the artwork from The Dungeon and The Harbinger still up for grabs.

I would encourage anyone who has been teetering on the edge of pulling the trigger on these to do so quickly, so that Jean-Marie has time to finalise the sales.

The paintings are situated in France, and everything you need to know about them and what to do if you fancy buying them is laid out below:

Prices:

The Dungeon – 47cm x 47cm – €2500
The Harbinger – 40.5cm x 51cm – €2000

Notes:

Prices are in Euros (€) and there will be no other associated charges apart from shipping.

Shipping will be via FedEx, UPS Express or International, with insurance for the declared value, tracking and signature upon delivery. A couple of the paintings are framed, but these will be removed for shipping to due costs and possible damage. If you are collecting, they can be left as is.

Payment will be taken by Bank Transfer only, as this will allow for the maximum amount of money to be passed to his children. It may be possible to arrange some other form of payment, but it will have to be with the agreement of Jean-Marie and the buyer.

Prices for the paintings and shipping may be negotiable, dependent on the number bought etc, but this can be discussed with Jean-Marie.

Genuine enquiries only please.

Please contact Jean-Marie directly via email at akodojm@yahoo.fr

Some of the original Talisman cover artwork is back up for sale!

Posted on November 29, 2019 by jon@talismanisland.com in Announcements, Dungeon, Harbinger, Reaper, Revised 4th Edition, Sale, Talisman, Woodland

Visitors may remember that the games and art collection of Jean-Marie Baveux was put up for auction recently, to help raise funds to put away for his two daughters, Lola and Danaé.

Due to problems with registration and bidding with the auction house’s online systems, the auction did not go according to plan. This does mean though that the four pieces of artwork by Ralph Horsley are still available for sale and it has become somewhat more important that a buyer is found quite quickly.

Sadly, the treatment for Jean-Marie’s Merkel Cell Carcinoma has not been successful, and he has been advised that his time is now limited, likely a matter of weeks. Because of this, he is keen to see the artwork sold so that the funds can be put in trust for his daughters.

The paintings are situated in France, and below I will set out the information that will be required. I’ve also made a couple of images to show exactly what artwork is involved and a little comparison image to show the actual sizes of the artwork –

Prices:

The Reaper – 31.5cm x 22cm – €1750
The Dungeon – 47cm x 47cm – €2500
The Harbinger – 40.5cm x 51cm – €2000
The Woodland – 62cm x 60cm – €2000

Notes:

Prices are in Euros (€) and there will be no other associated charges apart from shipping.

Shipping will be via FedEx, UPS Express or International, with insurance for the declared value, tracking and signature upon delivery. A couple of the paintings are framed, but these will be removed for shipping to due costs and possible damage. If you are collecting, they can be left as is.

Payment will be taken by Bank Transfer only, as this will allow for the maximum amount of money to be passed to his children. It may be possible to arrange some other form of payment, but it will have to be with the agreement of Jean-Marie and the buyer.

Talisman is coming (also in Russian and Hebrew!)

Posted on September 26, 2019 by jon@talismanisland.com in Adventures, Announcements, Dungeon, Frostmarch, Highland, International, Legendary Tales, Lost Realms, Pegasus Spiele, Reaper, Reprint, Revised 4th Edition, RPG, Talisman

It’s been a while since I posted some news due to life and other reasons, but I figured I’d better post something today after today’s Licensing Preview on the Warhammer TV stream on Twitch.

To my surprise the new reprintings of the Revised 4th Edition of Talisman were featured along with boxes shown for the main game plus The Reaper, The Dungeon, The Frostmarch, The Highland and The Lost Realms expansions!

Not only that, but the new Talisman Adventures Fantasy Roleplaying Game got a mention, and Talisman: Legendary Tales too!

What was quite exciting though was the fact that it was mentioned that the game will be appearing in Polish (which we knew), Russian, Hebrew and a bunch of other languages!

Hopefully we will find out just which other languages those will be soon as we already know that German, Italian and French are already planned.

If you have a subscription you can look back at today’s live stream, or you can swing by the Pegasus Spiele physical and digital webstores to see what’s coming next!

Talisman reprint from Pegasus Spiele expected in three waves?

Posted on July 17, 2019 by jon@talismanisland.com in Announcements, Blood Moon, Cataclysm, City, Dragon, Dungeon, Firelands, Frostmarch, Harbinger, Highland, Lost Realms, Pegasus Spiele, Reaper, Reprint, Revised 4th Edition, Sacred Pool, Talisman, Woodland

I just noticed something vaguely interesting regarding the upcoming reprints of the Revised 4th Edition of Talisman over on the Pegasus Spiele site this week.

It seems that the reprints are broken down into THREE groups, available in September, October and November and it’s kind of underlined by the fact that only the September wave has box art uploaded at this moment.

If you follow the link, the first batch of the Talisman base game, Reaper, Dungeon, Frostmarch, Highland and Lost Realms is marked for September, with Sacred Pool, Dragon, Blood Moon and City for October and finally Firelands, Woodland, Harbinger and Cataclysm for November. This is true of both the German and English language versions.

There’s sadly no news as yet about whether the promotional cards Instructor and Doppelganger will be seeing a reprint.

Talisman and other Original Fantasy Artwork and Rare Games go to Auction

Posted on June 8, 2019 by jon@talismanisland.com in Announcements, Dungeon, Harbinger, Reaper, Revised 4th Edition, Talisman, Woodland

*Originally posted on 3rd May, but reposted for visibility*

I posted this recently over on the Talisman Island Facebook Page, but am just going to C&P here with a few amendments as to be frank, it is very difficult for me to be ‘creative’ with what needs to be said.

I’ve been dreading posting about it really because, not only are the circumstances surrounding the auction very sad, but having met Jean-Marie and the fact that I consider him a friend brings it a lot closer to home.

Jean-Marie Baveux is a former French Marine Corps soldier and war veteran and father of two daughters, Lola (15yo) and Danaé (13yo).

He is a former game designer and writer, long-time collector of games, statues and other collectable and a huge Talisman fan, gamer and collector since 1983.

He also has Merkel Cell Carcinoma and it is very likely that he will not survive.

What he wants to do is liquidate some of his assets and put money aside for his two daughters, as it’s likely that he will not be able to provide for them in the future.

Jean-Marie has taken the time to write up a useful FAQ (linked below) for the auction, including how to register and bid with the online auction house – Septimus Auctions in Belgium.

Septimus Auction June 9th 2019 Registration & Bidding Procedures

For starters, take a look at the auction which will take place at 11am on the 9th of June 2019 – Jean-Marie’s lots are numbered from 606 to 632 – and then get yourself registered on the site as you will need a bit of lead time to confirm payment details etc.

Auction Page at Septimus Auctions

The lots include four examples of original Talisman cover art from The Reaper, The Dungeon, The Woodland and The Harbinger expansions by Ralph Horsley, all historical and legendary Legend of the Five Rings CCG Bayushi Kachiko original paintings by Matthew D. Wilson, L5R, Magic: The Gathering and Dungeon & Dragons original art by Brian Snoddy, R.K Post and Chris Seaman will be auctioned, as well as very rare board games & RPGs, including an original Gen Con edition copy of the Dune: Chronicles of the Imperium RPG by Last Unicorn Games plus an ultra limited edition copy of Mythgardia and its expansion by Bob Harris.

I’ll probably be spamming this a little bit over the next month, but this needs as much coverage as possible, so if you know of any groups that might be interested in anything that he has for auction, then please share it!

As it turns out, May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month, so I figured a link might be useful for people at this time –

English and German Talisman reprints slated to arrive in September, with pricing!

Posted on April 11, 2019 by jon@talismanisland.com in Announcements, Blood Moon, Cataclysm, City, Deep Realms, Dragon, Dungeon, Firelands, Frostmarch, Harbinger, Highland, International, Lost Realms, Nether Realm, News, Pegasus Spiele, Reaper, Releases, Reprint, Revised 4th Edition, Sacred Pool, Talisman, Woodland

The store pages over on the Pegasus Spiele website have just been updated with entries for all of the upcoming reprints of the Revised 4th Edition of Talisman and its expansions, and they are all listed for September this year.

Well, all except for Das Hochland, Die Feuerlande and Kataklysmus which are listed as August, but they could be typos!

An interesting addition is the translated versions of I Reami Perduti (The Lost Realms), originally produced by Giochi Uniti, which now has a working title of The Realms or Die Königreiche (The Kingdoms… I think).

You’ll have noted that in the Pegasus Spiele 2019 Catalogue, the preview image features the name The Lost Realms but, as we know, these things are subject to change.

What’s great to see are the retail prices listed for the game, with the base game of Talisman at €49.95, “small” expansions at €19.95, “large” expansions at €34.95. Cataclysm is listed at €39.95, but you do get a lot in the box. The Realms expansion is marked at €14.95, which has no miniatures of course!

There’s nothing new to share yet about Talisman: The Card Game – Clash of Heroes or Talisman Adventures – The Fantasy Role Playing Game, but I believe that they are still expected to be released at Gen Con in August. Who knows, maybe we’ll see some advance copies of the Revised 4th Edition of Talisman there too?!

A World of Talisman coming from Pegasus Spiele!

Posted on March 22, 2019 by jon@talismanisland.com in Adventures, Announcements, Blood Moon, Card Game, Cataclysm, City, Clash of Heroes, Deep Realms, Dragon, Dungeon, Firelands, Frostmarch, Harbinger, Highland, International, Legendary Tales, Lost Realms, Nether Realm, Pegasus Spiele, Reaper, Releases, Reprint, Revised 4th Edition, RPG, Sacred Pool, Spoilers, Talisman, Woodland

Sometimes, you just sit at home and have a root around the search engines to see if there are any tidbits of news about your favourite board game, which is Talisman, by the way!

Other times, you just have to look in front of your nose. So I did.

Today, I noticed that Pegasus Spiele had a catalogue up on their site, featuring all of the games that they are pushing for 2019, and got very excited when I found a reference to the upcoming licenses game of Talisman – Das Kartenspiel: Clash of Heroes along with a mockup of the box art, provisional contents list and a game overview in German. There was also an entry for Talisman: Legendäre Abenteuer and the previously noted German-language reprint of Talisman: Die Magische Suche, 4. Edition.

Then I got to thinking if there might be an English-language version of the catalogue and… OMG was there!!!

The “US Catalog 2019” not only features a whole section dedicated to the Talisman World that Pegasus Spiele is adding all sorts of great stuff to, but also a few surprises!

Talisman: Legendary Tales, Talisman: The Card Game – Clash of Heroes, Talisman: Adventures – The Fantasy Role Playing Game and a full reprint of the entire back catalogue for the Revised 4th Edition of Talisman, INCLUDING The Nether Realm and The Deep Realms expansions in the new boxed format recently championed by Giochi Uniti in I Reami Perduti or The Lost Realms expansion!!!

I’m not going to be posting any content lists or what have you here, as things are obviously subject to change, but my goodness there’s a lot of stuff happening with Talisman this year, and we’ve also got new content coming for Talisman: Digital Edition from Nomad Games, two licensed versions of Talisman to come from USAopoly, the two new editions of Relic from WizKids and a dice game still to come from Pegasus Spiele!!!

More news when we hear it and when I’ve stocked up on more exclamation marks!!!!

It looks like an ENGLISH reprint of Talisman is coming from Pegasus Spiele!

Posted on March 9, 2019 by jon@talismanisland.com in Announcements, Blood Moon, Cataclysm, City, Dragon, Dungeon, Firelands, Frostmarch, Harbinger, Highland, Lost Realms, Pegasus Spiele, Reaper, Releases, Revised 4th Edition, Sacred Pool, Talisman, Woodland

There’s been much speculation about whether the Revised 4th Edition of Talisman would be seeing a reprint in English, and it would seem that it definitely is!

Following a lead from ‘Boodog‘ on BoardGameGeek, I decided to have a little search around the dark corners of the Internet, and discovered that Game Nerdz have put game entries on their store for preorders from Pegasus Spiele. Not just the base game of Talisman, or the few expansions that were reprinted by Games Workshop most recently, but EVERYTHING except the Print on Demand titles!

Another bit of delving revealed that preorders were up on the GTS Distribution site along with a countdown timer of 10 days for retailers to get their orders in, so it seems that things are moving rather quickly.

There are no new boxart images on the site, and there are old FFG boxes shown on the retail site, but it’s happening!

So, to recap… if you are missing the base game of Talisman or The Reaper, The Dungeon, The Frostmarch, The Highland, The Sacred Pool, The Dragon, The Blood Moon, The City, The Firelands, The Woodland, The Harbinger & The Cataclysm, then just bide your time and you should be able to snag a copy soon without having to pay some of the exorbitant prices that these boxes are commanding at the moment. Hoorah!

Given that the German reprint of the Talisman coming from Pegasus Spiele is slated for June this year, we could be looking at a bumper Summer for Talisman!

Hopefully someone will speak nicely to Giochi Uniti and ask if their combination expansion, I Reami Perduti, that includes The Nether Realm and The Deep Realms, might get printed in English too!

More as we hear it…
