Hi all,
im currently in the middle of a project where I need high quality digital copies of all character cards. Kinda like the ones FFG use in their previews of upcoming expansions.... I have already gone through all news posts and gathered all the ones FFG hosted here.
I also know they are available at BGG but they are of very low quality. Therefor I ask you friends if you know or might have high quality scans of the cards?
Thanks and best regards,
Allawi
And the reason as to why i'm asking is that me and a friend are working on a Talisman session tracker.
This will allow us to track statistic from all our talisman session including characters win/loss ratio. Player win/loss ratio etc.
This is a sneak peak of the site as of now.
Pictures of the characters as you have them there would be no problem, but it looks like you already have them. High quality scans are something that I imagine FFG would not be too happy about being shared as they would allow people to create the cards from expansions without the need to actually buy the expansion.
Lower quality examples are available on Talisman Island as part of the Miniatures section, which should meet your needs.
Seriously, I dont think pirate exapanisons is likley to be real problem for FFG. Only a small % of player are happy to mix home brew creations into their own game , and the time it takes to make a home brew seemlessly integrate... it means that FFG don't need to worry about this.
I think that people aren't as worried about "seamless integration" as you might think, especially when it saves some money. That aside, I would still maintain that wholesale scanning is not something that FFG would be particularly happy about.
plus aint that against the trademark rights anyway
I was not going to use them in any way that violated anything, just to take small thumbnails of the characters to use for the site. The plan was to put up the site to public use for all but now I have reconsidered this and will only use it privately.
Thanks anyway,
Regards /Allawi
