Encounters

Some cards and special abilities refer to encounters. An encounter can include enemy cards, events, strangers, places, spells and board spaces.

Gold

Gold allows you to buy objects and pay for services. Your wealth is recorded by placing gold coins beside your character card. Any gold received from any source other than another character is taken from the gold stockpile. If you’re ever required to lose gold and do not have any, nothing happens.

ICONS

5th Edition Changes

These icons appear throughout the rulebook to mark changes from Talisman 4th Edition.

Gameboard Icons

These icons appear on gameboard spaces to specify how many Adventure cards to draw or how many dice to roll.
