| | Talisman (board game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The first edition of Talisman was nearly identical to the Second Edition: the differences between the two are purely cosmetic. | | | One artifact a character must eventually possess is a talisman, which allows the character to pass through the Valley of Fire, a portal to the Inner Region. | | | The Magic Sword had all new graphics (no images from the Polish Talisman were kept, except for the re-edition of Cave, as all expansions were re-released under new names) which wasn't received very well as compared to Talisman. |

| | Funagain Games: Talisman |
| | A comment on third edition Talisman: Some of the criticisms I mention above were corrected in the third edition. | | | Talisman was popular enough to spawn a number of expansions which gave the game an amazing amount of variety, with the fantasy characters suddenly thrust into the roles of time travellers, as well. | | | Talisman came out in the very early 1980's, a fantasy board game that very obviously sought to do for fantasy what Cosmic Encounter had done for science fiction. |

| | Talisman - The background by Bob Harris |
| | As he grew more powerful the character would be able to make his way towards the centre of the board through increasingly dangerous regions until he finally reached the centre with the aid of a mystic talisman. | | | I have no idea what plans there may be for Talisman in the future, but it is difficult to believe that a game which has proved so successful all over the world will not one day return to delight a new generation of gamers. | | | Production of the finished Talisman game had been running behind schedule so that all I had seen of it up until now were some black and white xeroxes of the artwork. |

| | Stephen Robinson writes of the Talisman story: "In the case of the Jupiter coin, this same extrapolation error is compounded with a very uncritical acceptance of the artifact in the first place. | | | It could also have been used as an amulet of luck, love, protection, healing, astrology, or ritual magic as it was used by thousands of other Americans who customarily wore the then in-vogue amulets or talismans. | | | Anderson described the Talisman as being an inch-and-a-half in diameter and covered with symbols and a prayer on one side and square of sixteen Hebrew characters on the other.[9] Significant is the fact that no associate of Joseph Smith has ever mentioned anything like this medallion. |

| | "I will not consent," he said, "to grant your son's liberty, unless that amulet be added to his ransom." The lady not only consented to this, but explained to Sir Simon Lockhart the mode in which the Talisman was to be used, and the uses to which it might be put. | | | Such is the tradition concerning the Talisman, which the Author has taken the liberty to vary in applying it to his own purposes. | | | Sir Simon Lockhart, after much experience of the wonders which it wrought, brought it to his own country, and left it to his heirs, by whom, and by Clydesdale in general, it was, and is still, distinguished by the name of the Lee-penny, from the name of his native seat of Lee. |
