got my game today and having great fun. but one thing isnt so clear from the rulebook:

when i move on the same field as another player and want to battle him. does he have to take the fight ? i mean the rulebook says he can avoid it. so i cant force someone to fight ?

thanks in advance

Hi Coobe,

If you want to encounter him, he must fight you, unless he has a option that he can evade you( because of a special ability or spell card) Otherwise he has no choice and must cross swords with you !

thank you ! its much clearer now. so i can force my human opponent to battle me physically and psychological only if my card says so. encountering monsters does result in battles as well, i learned.

really awesome game, my dwarf got beaten by my girlfriends thief so severe. but still

Yes, if you have for example the Wizard, then you can use his special ability to attack a other player with craft ! Very nasty if that other player has low craft

In the normal way, this is not possible, and if a character has not that ability, then they will attack each other with strength

Strength type enemies,creatures do you fight with strength and craft type enemies,creatures do you fight with craft

Maybe it's time to take your revenge on your girlfriend

oh we i did, we didnt finish the game last night and took it up today. i had SO much luck in the inner region... she was down to 2 life and i still had 5.

normally i dont like luck games, but talisman is so rewarding even if you have bad luck so you dont really notice it.

next game i need to play the monk

thx for all your help

Remember, he only gets Craft value = starting Craft = +3 to his combat, not current Craft. Are you picking your chars? Random is the way to go .
