The Harbinger is coming - New expansion announced!

By talismanisland, in Talisman

Besides making the fabulous 100th post (in a thread I started!), I guess I am wondering if I can play Talisman this weekend, one last time, before The Harbinger?

anyone else?

We have a game scheduled for Sunday. Was actually hoping to get the Harbinger in time for it, but alas that will not be happening :(

Still, a Sunday with Talisman is better than a Sunday without!

There's an old saying..." the sooner, the better ".

Therefore, I, for one, am hoping FRP :D

Please don't ever rely on an Amazon release date ...

So can we pre-order it yet?

oh god! It is getting so close now I can taste it!!! :D

Update from Amazon:

This item will be released on July 24, 2015.

FRP still has it as July 21st (tomorrow!)

So which one is correct? lol

Also keep in mind that Fantasy Flight Games usually makes their releases available on the site AFTER FRP Games for some odd reason...

MAJOR EDIT: FRP GAMES NOW HAS IT LISTED AS IN STOCK!!!!!

I preordered from coolstuffinc and they have not released yet :(

FRP Games just sent me an email saying my pre-ordered Harbinger expansion has been shipped!

I also got an email late yesterday that it is on its way! Can't wait!

I played the Harbinger expansion tonight with my regular group. We generally use every expansion with the exception of the Dragon. We all agree that it is possibly our favorite small box yet. We gave the rules a cursory review, shuffled in the new characters and away we went. It was a great session.

Looks like according to delivery confirmation I should be receiving Harbinger this afternoon instead of tomorrow. YES!!!

Quartzquiz, sent you a friend invite on Steam (Toothless_Night_Fury) ;-)

Ok, yea, I might have just spent an irresponsible amount of money on Express Shipping... dammit America, why do you have to be separated from England...

:lol: oh dear I love it. I nearly spent my food money on fast shipping too. But I resisted and should expect my copy to turn up from the other side of the pond by about August 6th! :lol:

Can some one tell me the 4 different Omens, I thought in the rules there would be someway of generating which one you will play with but it seems the players just choose.. "Oh its the End of Time, ok now what impending doom do you prefer" hehehe

After reading the rules this is interesting :

Enemies from the Harbinger deck must be taken as trophies when defeated

That's because the base rules say you "may" take Enemies as trophies, but who wouldn't?

Those who realize with The Harbinger expansion that sometimes, having trophies is bad. :)

So now, it's mandatory. No legal loopholes allowed.

Ah then no wonder they put it in there a lot of loop-holing going on.

Ok so I have two of the four types of Omens one is The Stars Align the other is Uncertain Ground I think the other 2 are Rise of the Dead and Time of Judgement can anyone confirm this.. OMG I could just wait for my set to come.... I said could wait...

Looking through the Harbinger deck right now. This expansion is EVIL!!!!!!!

Yes. Quite happy. I wonder when Mrs. Oberon and I will play!

Oooohhhh, its gonna be punishing. Gotta admit I was disappointed with the Possessed abilities. He looks so awesome.
