This time around, we have a return to the Talisman Timescape! An expansion that some feel is an abomination, and that others (myself included) thought was fun, but probably not really suited to the world of Talisman.
If there are to be mechanical devices in Talisman, I would prefer them to be of magical design, although I could certainly cope with steam-powered or clockwork items. Hoverboards and mining lasers are really a step too far!
However! My favourite character from that expansion, and one which I adopted as my video gaming avatar over the years, is the Cyborg. An unfeeling powerhouse who stomps his way around the board, smashing all in his way!
As you will know, there are similar things now in Talisman, in the form of the Construct Enemies. I have taken the idea that they are guardians of some sort, whose basic function is to see off adventurers, and added a few bits from here and there that I thought were thematic. I hope you like "him" and I look forward to some more Konami-based shenanigans in the near future!
