[QUOTE="Glyfair, post: 3686715, member: 53"] Well, I was going to complain about how they are ruining the game with 4E and it's a game for powergamers now. Clearly Talisman first edition was the only real edition of the game. Since you brought it up though, I won't. I do own all the original expansions (wish I could say the same about [I]Cosmic Encounter[/I]). Still, [I]Talisman[/I] took far too long in my experience. A fun game would descend into boredom as one person ran around collecting life with the other at the Crown of Command (even with the variant endings, which always seemed to start with the Void). I much prefered [url=http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/472]Dungeonquest[/url] where you could finish ten games in the time of one Talisman game. Who can't love a game where everyone dies horribly with no winner a noticeable amount of the time ;) [/QUOTE]
