Fantasy Flight Announces Expansion for ‘Talisman 4E’

Thursday, December 19th, 2013

Fantasy Flight Games has announced The Firelands, a new expansion for its Talisman Revised 4th Edition board game, which will release in the first quarter of 2014, according to news website ICv2.com.

This expansion will feature four new characters: the Dervish, the Nomad, the Jin Blooded, and the Warlord; as well as three new Alternative Ending Cards.  There are new Terrain cards, which can change the game board itself, since cards are placed over existing spaces on the game board (a graveyard may be replaced by a forest, or a tavern may become runes).  There are also 81 new Adventure cards, many of which focus on the threat of the Ifrit, and there is a new game mechanic introduced:  burn.  Players may be instructed by certain cards to burn a specific number of cards – which will be removed from the game and no longer have any effect.  There are several new fireproof cards, but most of those only inflict more burn effects.

The box contains 81 Adventure cards, 18 Spell cards, 20 Terrain cards, 3 Alternative Ending cards, 4 new character cards and plastic figures, and 34 Fireland tokens. As an expansion, it requires theTalisman Revised 4E base game to play.  The game is for 2 – 6 players, and plays in 1 – 2 hours.  MSRP is $24.95.
