I wish i had the first edition of this game it was awsome. My friend had it and it was great fun to play. Getting the first edition will be impossible though if you don't look for already used games. I preferred the old look with the eighties graphical style. I might buy it anyway...
I played this new game about a week ago and it was great fun we had bout 5 people in it most of us were fairly new to the game but it was a blast after we figured it out.
I wonder anyway if Talisman has been updated as rules and encounters, after all Runebound , another very good board game with many expansions and optional rules, is one of the greatest accomplishments as board game with its quests, events and challenges, and not so randomly as difficult (if you remember the dragons strenght 7 and the devil spirit 10 in Talisman..).
Anyway i appreciate the return of board games since 80s of XX century
The earlier edition (this is the fourth) were based on the Warhammer Fantasy universe indeed and made by Games Workshop.
This one is made by Black Industry, which is the role playing game imprint of BL publishing. BL Publishing is the publishing wing of the Games Workshop group of companies.
In short, yeah, it is based on the same universe, although I haven't seen direct mention of it by reading the rulebook.
I have 2 of the first edition, one that I played on and one mint condition sealed away in a safe

Never realized GW made games before Warhammer until recently.
Odd how they discontinued it, and now they're bringing it back.
