Talisman Die Magische Suche

Erweiterung: Der Kataklysmus

In the lands of Talisman, the end of the world has come and gone, the aftermath of the cataclysm can be found on a new board that can be combined with all other expansions and corner boards. The aim of the game is that of the basic game, you need to reach the central Crown of Command and oust other characters with a dominance spell. It is possible to use only a few elements from Cataclysm, maybe the characters or the Alternate Ending sheets.

Five characters come from both before and after the catastrophe. The Black Knight, previously in the Middle Region, now roams all the lands and forces other characters to pay him gold or life points. The Mutant has changed due to magic energy during the apocalypse, strength and other abilities fluctuate. The Scavenger was born afterwards, is continually on the move and hides his treasures. The Arcane Scion was born during the outburst of Magic Energy and has learned to use it to control magic items and spells. The Barbarian cannot use any magic, but is also protected from it.

A new feature are decks for Denizens and Remnants; both card types can be found on cases on the board, they are not adventure cards are do not count towards the number of cards on a case. There are also terrain cards, which are placed on cases on the board due to other effects in the game and change the effects of cases.

Der Kataklysmus / The Cataclysm is an impressive and wonderful finale for Talisman, a must-have for all fans, providing lots of additions for each aspect of the game while leaving the basic rules unchanged; there is enough in it to yield countless games and yet it is very sad the the adventure ends here.
