As owner of the Crown of Command I fought off one attacker to the throne. I killed another through the command spell. But the third with only one life left, cast the 'random spell' turning me into a toad for 3 turns. Two turns were taken to reach me - then on her go she attacks and takes one life from me and then annoyingly on my third turn all I can do was attack to lose my second and final life. grrrrrr!!!!!

Talisman life is soooo unfair!

On a more positive note I loved the new reaper expansion. The reaper didn't come into play much but some of the new cards really shook things up.

Oh man, that's does suck. I do really love when games come down to the wire like that where one more turn would've changed things significantly though. Everyone's a winner when the game is that epic at the end.

My game... 1st rule... Only I can win.

think that sucks? i have 3 health, fighting a wizard with 1 health, and we are about god leveled. he plays a temporal warp and kills me in psychic combat. that was so frustrating i was just insanely pissed off at that, but that was an extremely fun game!

As much as that was a bummer for you this is why I really like Talisman. Just because you reach the Crown, doesn't mean the game is over at all. I also love that adrenaline rush and how everyone scrambles and rallies as one character nears the crown. It is what makes the game memorable.

definetly, talisman is awesome that even though it looks like the end, you can never be to sure!

Sorry for bumping an old thread, but I had to just post one word for us old 2nd ed'ers....

Void.

For me, it was also a sad day..because i make a F*^#@! mistake at the crown of command.

he has only one life left but i forgot to cast my twist of fate spell. I thought it was only for re=rolling but you can decide the number on the die!

If i have choose a six then he has definitly lose a life ( And that would been his last life)

Philosopher is very good but because of my own mistakes i lost..

Are there more people out there who forgot to use their cards on the right moment ?

If you have so many objects, then you don't see anymore what you can do or how strong you are.

I write it on a piece of paper but you must update it everytime
