Fantasy Flight Games is pleased to announce the upcoming release of The Highland, the latest expansion for Talisman Revised 4th Edition!

Talisman: The Highland adds a new Region to the game for heroes to explore. A custom-fitted map board and over 100 new cards bring this mountainous realm vividly to life, while six brand-new characters, each represented with a superbly detailed plastic miniature, offer fantastic new playing experiences. Climb as high as you dare, and lay claim to the unimaginable wealth that awaits atop the tallest peak in the world of Talisman!

The Highland expansion includes the following components.

1 Rulebook, 1 Highland Board, 142 Highland Cards, 10 Spell Cards, 12 Adventure Cards,

4 Relic Cards, 3 Alternative Ending Cards, 6 character cards, 6 Plastic Character Figures.

The description on the announcement page for this sounds AMAZING! I can't wait!

Great news!

On the box I can see a lot of female characters so we can suspect the return of girl-power in the next expansion

Also the Harpy is the second Monster with craft (after a demon that teleported us to the Plain of Peril)!

Black Elf from Dungeon was Craft 3 Enemy-Monster. And wasn't Cerberus a Monster as well?

Dam said:

I did remind myself the Cerberus just after I posted it though I completely forgot about Dark Elf. You're right! It's fourth Monster with Craft then.

You can see the board and 2 of the minis in the advertisement on the front-page of BGG(right-side of screen for me). Looks like the board is the same size as the Dungeon...in other words HUGE!!!

Guessing the board will have another LoD-like path available to the Crown of Command.

Looking at the character art, Valkyrie? Spock ? Little flyer is Fairy?

Frog said:

That little green character looks like a fairy, or maybe a pixy

The Guy on the left looks like a elf.. ( but he has a wand..?

Maybe that the character in de middle is a Valkyrie? I really hope so...

FFG, please include real copies of 'Danse Macabre' and 'Crown of Command' alternate endings in this, as well as some new alternate ending cards!

Kthx!

Can I see a skeleton there...?

Lack of female characters in Talisman so the more the better...

oops, sorry...its not...nice to see a farie too...

I hope that the Highland expansion box has a inlay for many adventure cards...

But i am afraid that it will be the same as the inlay from the dungeon expansion..

Quick Question: When ?

Hi

I am new here

Well, well well I think this is something everybody were waiting fot. I hope this new box will be distributed soon worldwide.

I wish to see the printed alternate endings, also. And I hope the new charachters won't be too overpowered!!!

Did anyone noticed, that this expansion will be (again) featuring gems from 3rd Edition?

The add on BGG says Spring.

Probably right on the "Other path to CoC" bit, but I'm ok with that. I do wonder if it'll be another place to power level your characters, like Dungeon?

Also... 6 characters this time. Is that to make up for the 4 that came with Frostmarch? Keep the avg. characters per expansion at 5?

Given the name of the expansion, and looking at the figures on the ad on BGG, I think it's safe to assume that at least one of the new characters will be the Highlander!

TeufelHund said:

No, if that were the case he'd be the only character in this set. THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!

Sorry, bad joke.

Highlander and Sprite for sure!

Looks rather jolly, and certainly one I'll pick up. This is an obvious rehash of third editions mountain region though (granted that it will probably be a lot better, as the 4th edition Dungeon is superior to 2nd and 3rd edition's). What I personally would like to see is a completely original region. I think that it's fair to say that with the supplements so far brought out, FFG's take on Talisman is the best (and most certainly quickest) version of the game, and they've had some good ideas for interesting new cards and characters in these supplements (some of which are quite over-powered but hey, this is Talsiman afterall). It would be nice to see something that was completely new.

This is awesome!!

A must buy for me!!!

being from the REAL highlands (of scotland)… this is awesome!!

Actually - how come? Gems? I have ne'er played the 3rd ed. Only first <with a set of expansions from 2nd + bunch of home rules and the full second> so forgive me my asking questions 'bout such obvious things

With my best wishes
