Skaven and Co.

By Old Master, in Talisman

Hi,

Can anybody who play the Warhammer franchise from FFG tell me if the Skavens appear anywhere in those game?

This can be interesting because if they are a part of a game from FFG it means they may have bought the rights to some exclusive GW Warhammer characters a la Skaven, Chaos Warrior......

If my assumption is right, we may still see a skaven character for Talisman 4er and we are one step closer to the Timescape expansion demonio.gif

Cheers

Skaven and chaos warriors both appear in Warhammer Invasion.

Interesting.. gran_risa.gif

Does that mean that we still see a skaven or chaos warrior...

This gives me some hope..

I would imagine that FFG have the right to use Warhammer stuff only within a certain context, so in this case in whatever their Warhammer game is (sorry I don't know its name off hand). They'd need to get additional rights to extend that license to other games I imagine. Which would cost and probably not add anything additional to Talisman, after all you just be using certain names and titles. Skaven for example.

They could always do a Rat Man character...

I think the Dark Cultist was intended to replace the old Chaos Warrior.

Thanks you "Shadow345" for clarifying and validating the information.

I agree with you "EvilEdwin" that FFG would need additional rights but who knows if this was not included in the licencing negotiation for Talisman or Warhammer mostly since it would be a small addendum or clarification in the agreement.

Maybe John Goodenough could answer this question or maybe not as it might give away some insiders on future expansion gran_risa.gif .

Really wish somebody could provide an answer.

Cheers.

Yes, but the "Dark Cultist" came before FFG expanded their Warhammer parts of the franchise if memory serve me well, I have no clue as to when "Warhammer Invasion LCG" came out but I don't think it is very old.

Anyway, let's hope that the volcano in iceland will not mess up the shipping of "Highland" to Europe gui%C3%B1o.gif
