Good luck to you guys! First to win 3 games is the Talisman Digital Edition Cup 8 Champion :)

With just Quarter Final 9 to finish their match I've opened up the threads for the Semi-Finals. Results of the Quarterfinals have been posted.

Good luck to all those still in the cup!

With the latest patch released today Nomad Games made some changes to their UI for setting up the game. A notable change is that Talisman Bloodbath now has more options to choose from. In order to keep the rules for the cup the same we will be playing with all Talisman Bloodbath options on, which is how it previously worked.

In future cups this may change but in order to keep things the same as it has been throughout the cup no changes will be made.


I've taken some screenshots for how your cup games should be set up according to the new UI:


Player Screen:

Nothing really new here to be concerned with except to note the Timeout setting has been moved to the House Rules section.

Expansions Screen:

Make sure Harbinger and it's characters are turned off as shown in the above screenshot

House Rules 1:

http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1288454532

Take note that all Bloodbath options are turned on

House Rules 2:

http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1288454567

There is now only one option to pick for characters, Character Selection is now the same as Random + Character Selection under the old system.

One thing to note is that "No More Lives" is now available to play with all endings, to keep things how they have been previously we won't be turning this on for the rest of this cup. For future cups this could be something to consider.

Hope this helps, and good luck to everyone in the rest of the cup!
