Does it have the same thickness as the character cards from the expansions etc?

1% darker is not so bad. The frostmarch cards are a bit too light

it is the same thickness like the frostmarch c hards.

and if the frostmarch cards are lighter then the cards are orginal, because i used the frostmach cards as referenz.

but i wished they make plastic minis.

But there are character tokens included, so you can use it as a playing piece.

Did anyone from US ordered/ recieved their copy yet? I have no idea how long shipping may take and I'm not sure if I placed my order correctly in the first place (don't speak german ). If someone have any hints I'll be gratefull.

yes , but my scanner is to old to make perfect scanns.

Those tokens are looking large

Something like the 4th black industries version?

no they are small like the normal talisman 4th minis in my eyes even smaller.

but in both ways the never match good.maybe some reaper mins are a good solution.

We tried to order the magazine, but it seems something is wrong with the site of mephisto...

We receive no mail of payment or a mail that we have ordered a magazine..

Velhart said:

that is sad...oh well, guess we'll have to wait for a PDF or something.

My copy arrived today! It had merely been delayed in the post.

I thought I would take a picture of the tokens, so that people can see what size they really are compared to a Talisman mini and to the new-style tokens that you can make in Strange Eons.

As you can see, they are a bit diddy. It seems that they have been made that way to utilise all of the cardboard. The red banner folds over, making the rest of the card the same size as the magazine.

We have receive yesterday the copy's from mephisto 48

I have finally put the character cards in the sleeves

And if i combine them with the other characters from the expansions...

I only need to add the english language to the Mehisto character cards...

That's quite a "cast" of characters.

Yeah, there are 12 mephisto characters, as you can see in the first picture.

I have mix those characters with some from the base game, reaper, dungeon, and frostmarch, to see how it looks like..

Hi Velhart,

Is there high resoultion version of the Mephisto Character Cards? I want to print them out to use in the game.

Thanks.

Never mind, I just ordered the magazine and will modify the german text and re-print the cards. Will post them online when im done.

Now that we have 39 characters,(excluding highlands) i was wondering how people are using the randomness of dealing out the characters to the players.

_________

I have always placed them on my sofa, and each player may pick 3 cards..

But more and more character will come, and i want to find a different manner to pick those character random..

I was thinking to give each character a number and the players must roll a die for it.

But the die needs to goes up to 39/40..

I think such a die does not exist?

Are there people who are using dices and give each character a number?

I am just a bit curious about it..

Velhart said:

Hi Velhart,

I do not know about 39/40 sided dice but I do own two 30 sides dice from way back in the 80's

I've never use the idea of "giving a number to character", usually the character cards are spread face down on the table and chosen.

You might try to put the most powerful characters at the lower and highest dice number but them with the law of probability these may not be played as often as those in the mid-number

I've you thought on when a new expansion come out! Will you reshuffle the player number? Get a 50 or 60 side dice or 2 30...?

Will you print the number on the character card or on a separate reference sheet?

I do hope that the character count will not stop at 45

Cheers

Normally me and my friends just pick 1 card each at random and then play that character. If there is a new player in the session he/she usually get to draw 3 cards and choose one of the characters, and finally if there is a total beginner to board games playing with us, he or she get to pick any character as they whish.

Regarding distributing character cards we give everyone 2 random characters each and let the player choose.

We have a good group (do not have a twisted complex to win every time) so they never usually pick the stronger character and weaker ones for a challenge.

Everyone to there own really...

Regarding the new character promo cards, (my apologies if this is a repeated question) are they DL as a PDF file?

Each time I attempt to purchase them it does not seem to order or pages refuse to open as it is in German (I think)...lol

I dont think anybody here has posted high quality versions of the new characters, that's why I ordered the magazine last friday and when they arrive I will make sure to post high quality version of the cards for everybody's pleasure. Im currently in the process of translating the cards. Im using Velhart's excellent translation with small modifications with help from my german-speaking friend.

Thanks Allawi

I cant see it being a problem converting the characters either as I have a large bits box left over from my GW days haha!
