Temple and Gold Expansion

By akuma508, in Talisman Home Brews

Hey Guys,

Well with the advent of a computer program that can make card making easy. I have created the "Temple and Gold" Expansion.

The expansion has 62 cards and 5 spells.

As the title may suggest there is a increased forus in the Temple and the addtional temples added via the desk. Most of the cards surround thing found in, around and about temple.

I hope you will enjoy it.

I will add a link to the cards here, then I find a place to host the pictures.....

Hi Akuma,

i don't know what i can expect from this expansion, but i certainly want to take a look at it.

Are you posting it on talismanisland? gran_risa.gif

Greetings,

OK here it is. I found a place that will host it for free gran_risa.gif

I hope you enjoy it. I welcome all feedback.

PS. Jon, could you please place this on your website too?

I've added it to the Expansions page of Talisman Island for you.

I noticed that there were a couple of typos in a few cards and that the first file had cards that were not lined up properly (top row). I added you to Messenger if you check and can help you out with that, providing you still have the .eon files.

Thank you for that. I still have the .eon files. I'll catch with you on messenger. Thanks again.

Hi Akuma,

I like the green toad enemy that you have made gran_risa.gif

Is it maybe possible, that you can create also toad mages who looks like a mage and cast a spell on you?

If you can find such art, then i am very happy gran_risa.gif

The cult of esprit is also apealing to me, but i am actually wondering what it really is..

It looks like a guardian who should protect the temple( place it on the temple when you draw them) That's what i think if i look to that card gran_risa.gif

I like also the cult of death. Getting a gold when you defeat them.. gran_risa.gif

---------

About the black market. I like the idea to buy a spell for one coin. Also the second option for 2 coins. But i think you must skip the one with 4 coins and 5 coins..

You could also add mules or armour for a little cheaper price.

-------

Maybe you could add that you must place the cult of the sun on one of the desert spaces .

I have fixed the typeos I've found.

I love the Black Market card demonio.gif Who would not want to buy a chosen spell?

I might make a few more cards along the lines of what Velhart has said then I will upload the updated version.

Hi Akuma,

I like that part too.

But it's about the last two that you get a strength/craft or spell of your choice. for 4 a 5 coins...

I think you can better changed it to something else..

What about mules or armour for a cheaper price.

3 coins for a armour

1 coin for a mule..( or is it too cheap Mmm..

-------

I look forward to what for cards you can create..

I am very serious if it comes to custom cards gran_risa.gif

But some toads that you can change you to a toad or are casting spells on you seems very funny to me gran_risa.gif or a winged toad etc toad mother or Toad King gran_risa.gif Dragon Toad demonio.gif Mage toad

Just an update.

I have made a few more cards, includeing two characters!

I'll re-check the spelling again on all the cards, and maybe make one more charcter, then I will upload the updated file.

Ok, here it is.

An updated version of the expansion.

http://www.freespace.com.au/filehosting/947947

There are now 4 characters, 65 adventure cards, 1 purchase card and 6 spells!! My computer had a hard time exporting the zip file, so I say this is the final update for this expansion.

I hope you all enjoy playing it. I'm always open to ideas and improvements.

Ps. Jon, can you please update the file on your website with this one? gran_risa.gif Thank you.

Hi Akuma,

I like the idea of the Temple Sprite and the Desert Reaper.

But i think that it is better if you make the Desert Reaper a little stronger. strength 6 for example

Most players go to the middle region if they are strong enough.

If he is stronger, then players can better evade the Desert Reaper, or they are in trouble gran_risa.gif

With a strength 3, players will easily defeat him and the chance is low that they must use roll for the (grim reaper penalty)

-------

The art of the desert temple is very good. I like it, but i wonder how it will play if it is placed on a desert space.

Because there is also the ancient temple on the middle region.

It's a nice idea that the Sprite guard the ancient temple if you draw her. gran_risa.gif

--------

I look foward for more creations from you gui%C3%B1o.gif

What about some traps for the middle region. ( rolling boulders for example, that are set to protect the temple or other nasty things cool.gif

We played a game on the weekend with this expansion.

The Pegasus came and took some-one out of the Dungoen when he was nearing the end of it. partido_risa.gif He wasn't happy, because he had tried to get to the end about 3 times by that time.

I think I need to adjust the Temple of Elements, as the highest dice roll is abit to powerful.

But, other wise the other players liked the other cards that were drawn.

We played with the characthers to. and it was the closest finish we've ever had. Three of us at the top. All within killing range of each other, I won by th closest of mergins. I had to roll a 6 to win. 5 or less and I was gone, no fate, and other saves could have been done, I only had 1 life. Last roll of the game if I failed, but I did it demonio.gif a SIX in all it's glory. demonio.gif

Thanks Akuma.

Your expansion is looking good.

Good job and well done!

Hi Akuma,

I was just wondering about something about the desert reaper,

If you are defeated by him and you roll the table from the grim reaper and roll a 5. can you send the desert reaper to a other person and he must fight the desert reaper there?

This also means that he gets a new location then, if he survives from the other player in combat.

A very dangerous card demonio.gif

Another question..

How does it feel to play with your own custom cards. I have never experience it before.

Do you put always the custom cards in your deck or only once..

They are currently mixed through my desk. I have only gamed with them once so far.

I guessing they will stay in there until our playing group desides to take them out.

I enjoyed watching the other players faces when they draw a card and they read what the new card was about.

Ok,

Version 3 is here , ( http://www.filefactory.com/file/a20509g/n/All.zip )

I have added a few more cards and adjusted some others.

I personally like the "Temple of Death" ending, and the spell "Last Chance" from the new cards made.

I hope you all enjoy.

Jon,

Once again could you please upload the newest version to your website?

Look interesting; I'll check it out.

I don't care for the nonsense FileFactory spreads around. Too many people are being taken in by such panic mongering and then loading trojans and vaporware into their computers. Please use a more legitimate file service such as rapidshare.com.

I'll try to download it later today. I just tried 3 times and each time got a file not found error after waiting the obligatory 30 seconds. Maybe as JC says you could try another host - Mediashare, Rapidshare or Sendspace seem to work okay.

Thank you, much appreciated.

Please, use SendSpace in stead or any multi-uploader. RapidShare lately became same selfish like MegaUpload once, and files uploaded to it (RS) cannot be downloaded by normal user.

Use JDownloader (Freeware). Java based and runs on any OS. It can download from almost any file storage system on the net. You just load in the links and leave it running. Rapidshare is not friendly and never has been, but it does have the fastest through-put of a lot of the services.

JDownloader Website. Accept no substitute.

Has anyone been able to upload the new version? Or do I need to upload somewhere else?

Write to Jon at TalismanIsland.com and see about transfer to his site. You can find his contact link in the signature of any of his latest posts.

If you still prefer a public upload service, you might try http://uploading.com/. It's pretty sound with good throughput (at least to north america). Sometimes people will upload to more than one storage service when sharing a file, as different services will respond with different bandwidth depending on the location of the downdloader in the world. I had no problem getting to the file at any service you've used so far... other than FileFactory using a lot of bogus pop service adds and false security warnings thrown at visitors. But I'm one of those who can spot do-do when I see it.
