Lord of Darkness encounter

[Lord of Darkness encounter]

Yes, u can use 1 wepon and 1 armor + followers strength or craft (depends on what you choos) and benifits from spells. But no followers or spells with creatures that fights in your place can be used, but some can fight whit you

[Questions about armour, crown of command and chimmera]

Reminder...... can only use one armor though. must pick

[Rules on "Landing" on a card]

Fredrik Winde said:

The philosopher clearly says: "whenever you land on faceup adventure cards, you may discard one card of your choice that you do not wish to encounter and draw another card to replace it".... this my friend is not the same thing as If she draws a card and can discard this and draw another one..... if this is the case then both the philosopher and the prophetess has the same ability???? dont think so. The driferrens is that the card must allready be on the board when the philosopher comes to the space, or else her ability dosent work. But the prophetess can do this.

Face-up= the card is already there.

But when you draw ex: the pool of life, you encounter it..... but its not already face up. its not the same thing for me. You can therfor take an strength point your self the very same turn...... this has been very clear to me for my 20 years long talisman life, got my first when i was around 12/14 years old.

But got the 4th edition 1 year ago. but still very mutch the same rules.

And about the assasin.... in the last edition he could only assasinate the enemies/creatures/characther he lands on, NOT the ones he draws. In the new version(4th) he can do this, but i think this is wrong....... why, simple, how can you assasinate someone who is attacking you? assasinate is someone who is sneeking up behind you and kill you without your knowledge. If you look at the character he looks like he is hiding behind his cloak, trying to sneek, makes seen if you whant to assasinate someone, but if you are attact by a dragon who knows your there???? assasinate the dragon??? NO NO NO NO, wrong

[Prophetess special ability / orb of knowledge.]

If you draw two cards you can ditch one of them and draw another one and then youi must encounter both. if you draw one you can choose to ditch this and draw another which you must encounter.

[Dark Denizens]

cards, spells etc etc canot stack. if every one has to move only one space for two rounds, it means that the player next to you only move one space and when it is your turn again you move one space, and then another round around the table, and you being the last one moving one space.... end. this means all players has moved 2 times only one space, pretty clear to me.

[Spell Timing]

It`s a NO NO, this must be done before the die roll

[Armor and craft]

whenever it says battle it is strength, if it says attacks its both. armor used to prevents life lost in battles only goes for strength. but there is other armor and objects that prevents this in psychic combat

[Amulet & Genie]

The geni are carring the spells, your craft is irrelevant, yes you can cast (you order the geni to cast them for you), and you can still carring the amulet, this is a cool combination.... at least this is how I play it.

[Bandit]

Yes! the gold goes to the bank

[Haunt - hadn't noticed that before]

If it was a stand off... you din`t beat it, but you didn`t loos a life, or whatever the outcome is, nothing happens, your turn ends...... At least that how I play the game.

[Runes Space]

If you fight two enemies and they are strength and craft, you fight them sepretly. therfor they both get +2 one there attack roll.... but if they are the same number and both are strength the only get +2 toghter.... at least thats what I understand from the rules.

[Preservation Spell]

you can not evade or use spells or enything else for that matter on death in the inner region, thats wy you can NOT do this to the reaper, becuse he is death. makes sense?

[Exchanging trophies question...]

Aldo you fight an enemy with craft or strenght, it is the card that deside what you get, strenght for strength and craft enemys give you craft. ex: you use an ability to do psychic combat to a lion whit stength 4, you win, you can now trade it for strength..NOT craft.

Thats how i have played for the last 18-20 years of my talisman life:), got my first when i was about 14/15 years old:), so i have played alot you can say:)

But I got my 4th edition only about a year ago, and there could be a new rule out that I havent heard of yet....... And im new to this site.... looking forward to excange questions anyway:)

[Demigod]

A demigod grants YOU........ of YOUR choice......, if you can`t take any spells he vanishes..... pretty clear to me:)

[Evasion]

I think i have heard this one before:)...... two enemies always fight as ONE enemy, when the have the same number..... thus "evasion" goes for both of them, If not the player choos to only avade one of them of curse.... then im not sure:)

[Changing direction]

aldo this is tru, my friends and I dont play whit this rule no more, we have a "forced" way to move (always clockwise)  in the middle and outer rigion. this way it is more eciting to play, and harder to avoid the witch:) he he he.... but in the dungeon we go for normal rules.

[Warhorse]

The rule book for the 4th edition: Craft value is what you start the game with, the number one the card, NOT your total craft (points from tropies, spells etc etc). This is a good new rule, or else the monk will be overpowerd:)

[Horse and Flying Carpet in the Dungeon]

you can use them in the dungeon, but not at the same time. ex: you roll 2 dice and one 1 dice you get a "6", then you say i use the flying carpet. This you can not do. This you must clerify before you roll the dice.
