 ====== Talisman ======
+After getting the Talisman board game (plus many expansions), I decided to paint the figures, a task that I've only just completed.
+{{ :blog:talisman.jpg?300&direct|}}
+There are 38 figures (33 characters, 4 toads and Death) in my copy of the
+[[http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/27627/talisman-fourth-edition|Talisman]]
+board game (all expansions up to Highlands, though I've noticed there are two more expansions either out, or due            out shortly).
+It's taken about 18 months to get around to finish [[https://picasaweb.google.com/samuel.penn/Talisman|painting them all]], though it was mostly a side quest in between other painting projects.
+Talisman is a fun game, but it's not a great game, and tends to go on for a bit too long. However, we do tend to be play with 6-8 players, which is a bit more than the number recommended.
+Next up as a painting project, is probably [[http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/83330/mansions-of-madness|Mansions of Madness]], which we haven't actually played yet, but which seems to have got much better reviews than Talisman.
