Everyone must search for their own miniatures.

As some of you have noticed, I have beginning to sculp miniatures. I am about to resculp the minis from Talisman but might stop that process to sculp something more usefull. Now I was thinking off these new characters + Velhart and me are discussing rules for a Toad King that also are going to be sculped.

What will the interest be for some minis of these new characters ?

And do anyone think FFG will make minis for these ?

Last Update !

Shape Shifter

Strength: 2, Craft: 4, Life: 4, Gold: , Fate: 1, Alignment: Evil, Start: Graveyard

Abilities:

- When you attack another character, you may choose to make the
attack psychic combat. You may not do this when you are attacked
by another character.

- If you defeat another character in psychic combat, and you choose to take a life from him, you can accept its shape. You take over the shape of another character, and you can use his current Strength and Craft, as long as you keep its shape.
You cannot use his abilities.

- If you lose one life, you change immediately to your own shape.

- If you meet a Stranger, you can accept another shape, wich appears sympatisch to the Stranger. If you roll a die for the Stranger, you may add one point to your result.

- You can accept at any time your natural shape. This functions also when you are changed in a toad.

As soon as we have these characters translated into english and in good quality, I begin to sculp them. Permission or not, at least for my own use. There is only one problem - how the heck do I get time for all those projeckts I am into Here is the time where I wish I was single with no kids and have all the time in the world. I gues I just have to sleep less

Welcome to the world of Talisman!!

Wow! Thanks to everyone who went to the hard work of translating all of these characters!! Now, I might have missed this in this lenghthy thread, but are there printable cards available of these? I understand that they are exclusive to a German magazine, but I am exclusive to the English language Some translated cards would be lovely, and I am sure that I could pillage our fig collection from other games to find suitable matches. If there hasn't been any made is that for legal reasons?

Hi Inkblob,

I am glad you like the Translating characters.

It was a lot of work !

I think that nobody has made the character cards yet.

I hope that FFG will release them soon, but i have my doubts..

Things are in motion at Mephisto...

Enjoy!

ooo this is exciting =D So, will these be in German or English, do you know? Even if it was in German only, there are great translators here on the forum who could help us linguistically crippled members out. Maybe some kind soul could step us through the ordering process so it dosn't get screwed up? I would be also interested if someone else ( who can read the site ) ordered a stack and I would be very happy to arrange buying one that way if they were comfortable with that?

I don't speak german but with google translator's help I just ordered it

I hope I did everything OK... We'll know in the next few weeks I guess.

I bet the cards will be in german but with actuall copies in my hands it will be easier to scan them, feed them to translator, and cram everything to Strange Eons. I have Talisman - Upgrade Pack with 14 character cards so i'll just use "sticker paper" approach .

One question. Maybe I just missed it on the last 16 pages but does those cards have actuall FFG blessing? Or they should be treated like just another homebrew expansion (very professional but homebrew nonetheless) ? I'm asking from the obsessive collector's point of viev .

Yes

The special characters are from Mephisto and FFG

--------------------------------

The articles are with the Heidelberg Games and Fantasy Flight Games officially voted in the U.S., and the FFG Talisman developer has explicitly promised us for the implementation and graphic design.

That's very interesting..

I wonder how those game markers looks like.. ( and what the quality is from the pre-cut character cards)

Using Google translate I am pretty sure I purchased it We'll see in a couple weeks right?

inkblob said:

All the characters are already translate here in this topic..

Sure, and I'll be using those translations with the *cards* I very much appreciate the work that went into getting the rest of us fans all of this info! I confirmed with the publisher today and I did indeed buy the magazine.

I think what I'll end up doing is making some custom sticker sheets and applying them to the cards, something like that.

My thoughts exactly. There is even a topic somewhere in the "Home Brews" about custom stickers.

And of course I'll be using translations from this topic. ALL HAIL VELHART . Thanks for the translations in question

are these going to be put on Talisman Island anytime soon? sorry to bug. but id love to be able to down load these, and print them on some nice card stock!

I'm pretty sure, when that cards will be download available, Jon will make a topic about that here. Please wait, and be patient.

...and more from Mephisto #48!

Nice!

I wonder if it is paper or cardboard

I only wish that they were english, but i hope that someone will make the cards english in the future...

Then i can use stickerpaper, and stick it on real character cards,

i would say it is cardboard because the size is bigger then the normal page of the issue.

gonrhade said:

I hope so.

We have already order the magazine.

I think that the shop in germany will have it on friday or saturday

Has anyone got the last magazine already?

We are still waiting, because the shop did not receive them last saturday..

so i got it today and , wow three cardbord pages that match 100% with the orginal charakter cards 1% darker .

the isseue has no talisman material in.
