Hey guys
Just bought Talisman and the reaper expansion last week and had my first game last night. Was loads of fun but we had a couple of issues.
1. If you use say the portal (or any encounter that ends up transporting you) and it transports you somewhere, do you then encounter whatever space it transported you to? I argued it didn't because I thought you could only have one encounter per turn, but the people I were playing with thought the transporting was a waste of time if you didn't get to encounter whatever space you were sent to so we ended up playing their way.
2. When you're turned into a toad you drop all your items and followers on the space you turned into a toad. Are these allowed to exceed the draw limit for that space? If not, what happens to the extra items?
3. Some of the creatures you encounter roll on a d6 to decide where they spawn and some of these places can be the tavern and other places that don't have a draw card limit on them. So if you were to go to the tavern and there was a creature on it could you just visit the tavern without fighting the creature? Or would you have to fight it first?
4. Last one, one of the players managed to get a poltregeist following her and to get rid of it you have to cross a the river. On the gameboard the obvious way to do this is to cross from the outer to the middle region. However, there is a bridge between the village and one of the fields on the outer region. Can you cross here to rid yourself of the follower?
Thanks heaps.
