Hulluva good rumor eh?

Who knows

Wasn't Death & Glory renamed to "The Reaper"?

Well, you can only speculate, but I'd think that if there were using a copy of old Talisman content they would also use the same expansion naming, to signal that they are related.

They chose another name, so I suspect we will see something new in 2009 (knowing FFG delays).

Really can't wait you know... which is ashamed cause I just have to

Yes, it was...

By the looks of the box, There are some new charters?

LOL!

The box is nice, but the guy on the left looks like a Pimp... LOL.

'The Pimp'

Special Abilities:

Slap that hoe on a roll of 4+ and take 2G.

The artwork looks very Anime-sh!. Which I like, but isn't the normal Talisman feel.

And the guy on the right looks like the Paladin out of Diablo II.

the pimp always gets +2 to his fuzzy pink dice roll

Mayby someone have picture of back side of the box?
Probably there would be some interesting infos ^^

Glad to see they seemingly have scrapped the term "combat" and replaced it with "battle" as per the 3rd edition. Should stop a lot of people getting confused

Notice from the picture that the figures are plain grey and not coloured or painted. Are we to assume from this that we are to paint these characters ourselves.

Will there be a colour plan so we know how the figures are to be painted and the availability of the paint ?

Still, lots of questions to be answered.

I guess you will know the colour scheme to use by looking at the character cards, as with 1st/2nd and 3rd Editions.

Man, looking at all this packaging shots is getting me all excited. I don't know how long I can hold out!

The figures for the expansion look to be much higher quality then the figures that are being made for the main game. I hope they'll look okay next to each other.

The fireball spell looks better (the wording).

It's good to see more adven. cards, and characters too.

So what are propostions about the new characters?
I recognized :philosopher and merchant (probably ^^).
Any other ideas?

I agree with Arfi on the Philosopher and Merchant. The other guy might just be a boring old knight, the girl on the other hand could be anything. Necromancer, some kind of Shaman, or even a Masked Super Hero Sorceress.

wait, what?

how do you get confused by the word "combat" and not by "battle" when they mean the same thing?

Well I don't get confused but other people get confused when cards add to their roll in combat and think it means psychic combat as well. At least if says add 1 in battle then it's clear it's not talking about psychic combat

It's the same thing really, people will get confused and think it's Psychic Battle. The word they needed to add is "Physical". Although, I am then sure people will confuse "Physical" and 'Psychic".

Battle and Psychic Combat is the terminology used; all cards in the game use this format.

They cannot be confused with each other.

I love this style of expansion. It's mostly more of what we already love, plus one extra little mechanic to rev things up. Nothing drastically game changing or cumbersome (like extra boards). Plus, it's more affordable this way.

I'm really looking forward to FFG's version of the game and their expansions.
