Death and Treasure entry submitted.
Talisman Island - Lucky 13 Competition (Winners!!)
And for the sake of it, "Coronation" and "Arcane Ways 1: Cantrips [sampler]" were submitted.
...and just to keep people up to date, there have now been a total of 10 entries for the competition. It would be cool to hit at least 13!
There is still time to go though, so get your thinking heads on!

I will be submitting one soon!
Good luck to all of the entrants. Hey Jon, perhaps you might like some help in the judging?
Ell.
Ps. Watch out everybody when I do one for the next competition lol
I also wish everyone good luck with this competition.
The Enchantress's cheap tricks has been submitted to the competition. It's our first try at this so it would be nice to have some comments on it even though it might not be a winner.
Perhaps when Jon is all done with the competition, the entries might end up as downloadable at Talisman Island. Then we could all look at what was submitted (via a list of mentions) and talk about them herein. I wouldn't mind some feedback myself for a little refinement of my entries... after the contest is finished.
I agree with JCHendee.
I was intending to post them as a Lucky 13 expansion page so that people might have a looksee at all of them. A couple will need making up so that they are usable, but I am sure someone will oblige in that regard!
Oh, and we are now up to 13 entrants! Spooky...

Have a look at the Talisman add-on which includes Dragon cards and a couple of other changes. It is not as polished as I would like, but that will come later (well, actually it might end up being totally rewritten).
If you have trouble with it, just download the older version on the Strange Eons page and install that again. It should work though!
(and don't worry about the large number of token possibilities! I was experimenting!)
This is unrelated to the competition, but I thought I would just give a little bonus to people that might be using this "not quite finished" version of the Talisman plug-in for Strange Eons, and have uploaded the images needed for the newer Draconic Lords.
Argaman is already included, but card and token images for Kyanos and Shamouti can be found here -

I'd certainly be interested to see what Dragon Rage effects people come up with for them...
Many thanks to JC Hendee for taking the time to make these images!
Portion and Elxier has been submitted.
Thank you for your great work for so many years. Hope you will keep on some more years
So, I just updated the front page at Talisman Island with a reminder about the deadline for the Lucky 13 competition.
HOWEVER...
When I went to post news of this to BGG it seems that I did not make the same updated announcement there as I did here at the end of February!
So, I figure the best thing would be to extend the deadline slightly, to give anyone a chance that did not know about the update. I figure that an extension of a week should be enough time...
Do people think that is fair?
That seems fair, although I am eager to see the results! We'll just have to wait a bit longer...
Go ahead. I think we all can wait another week.
Thanks chaps. I think another week won't hurt and it gives me a chance to ping the Yahoo Group and Twitter too...
The 9th of April will be good as it is at the end of the holiday weekend giving people a chance to get something sorted.
Soooo… any news on how far you got with that pile of new stuff you got in your in-box?
Well, the pile of stuff is now on my desktop and I need to get a good look through everything a couple of times before I finally decide.
A few have caught my eye though, so it should be all sorted reasonably soon. I am hoping perhaps to have something sorted by the weekend as long as I can concentrate on it.
I would not have believed that judging these entries was so difficult. I seem to be flitting from one good idea, to another and then back again!
Don't worry though as I PROMISE!!!!! to have a winner picked by the end of the weekend, hopefully tomorrow. I will force myself to choose and throw myself on the mercy of the fans!
Well, that didn't take as long as I thought. I have finally got it all sorted and emailed the various winners. You can now read up about who the lucky few are, and have a gander at all of the entries to the competition.

Thanks to everyone that entered. You won't believe how hard it was to judge! I think I will definitely be using a commitee next time to help out!
Here's to the next 13 years of Talisman Island, and don't forget, Talisman is 30 next year…
I like the enchantress expansion idea too:)
Trading some trophies at the enchantress for some special cards, like the frog's eye, seer stone or arch mage amulet are some nice idea's.

Thanks Velhart and thanks Jon.
We're very glad you liked our expansion. I still haven't looked through all other ideas but there are many good entries. I can understand that you had a hard time picking a winner, just like we have a hard time understanding that you choose ours.
I hope that more of you guys will like it as well!
Best Regards

By the way, it would be nice to have the list of entries completed with forum user name's because here people are more known under there alias.
Hopefully that's possible.
Well, it is possible that people might not like to have the connection made, plus there are some that entered through other avenues than FFG.
I shall leave it to the entrants should they wish to step up!
