Talisman

The Highland

Talisman: The Highland is the 4^th expansion for the 4^th edition of Talisman. Each player guides a character in possession of a basic equipment of talent, luck and gold, this can vary during the game. These characteristics and the event cards plus reactions of the character influence the game.

The Highland is a so called Region expansion featuring its own additional board that is placed at the bottom left-hand corner of the main board; the “Crags” connect the main board and the Highland board. When at the Crags you can, but need not, enter the Highland. Your task in the Highland is to defeat the Eagle King in his Eyrie. If you succeed you receive a relict card and leave the Eyrie immediately. For the game end you can randomly choose one of the alternate endings and place it open or face down on the Inner region. If you play with a known ending, you can play more strategically. Of course, there are Highland cards with new events, enemies, strangers, objects, companions and locations, they are only drawn when a character is in the highlands, as well as six new characters: Highlander, Sprite, Valkyrie, Rogue, Vampiress and Alchemist. Trinkets are special objects that do not count towards a character’s carrying capacity.

Talisman The Highland again expands the main game with attractive and interesting details, can be combined in any way with all the other expansions and – for a hard-core Talisman fan – is an absolute must-have! Eagle eyes might be helpful to decipher the text on the opposite end of the board, which gets rather big when the Highland board is added.
