You should now have a build that is accesible through the beta options that should help remedy the launch issue until we can get in contact with Apple and get a new build submitted.
To access this build follow the below;
Go to Library.
Right click on Talisman.
Go to Properties.
Go to Betas.
Select macfix from the drop down box.
This will be a temporary build, as said, until we can update OSX officially but this build will get Talisman working for you over the holiday period and it won't affect your ability to play cross platform, so if you've got buddies that play with you from Android, iOS or PC then you should still be able to play with them.
We apologise for the inconvenience but we have got this temporary fix tested, confirmed and up and running and there will be a more permanent solution with you shortly.
The Harbinger Expansion - OUT NOW!
The Harbinger has come to summon the end of times. With him we see an introduction of two new endings, three new characters, and 127 new cards.
With the Harbinger comes four sets of Omen cards - dire warnings of imminent doom. Not only are you racing your opponents to claim the crown but the crown is the only thing that will prevent your mortality from becoming very, very apparent. Another mechanic is added to Talisman’s vast arsenal that increases just how dynamic the experience can be.
We’ve finally closed the Talisman Workshop voting and the feedback is something that we hope to include among the patches and future expansions. We’ll keep you informed on what to expect from this!
In this build you can also create an Asmodee account or sign in to your Asmodee account through the login option in the top right of the screen. This will link you to the Asmodee network and is a feature that we intend to develop to benefit you - yes, you.
Fixes
As always, maintaining patch notes from one expansion to another is a near impossible task but the thing that we would like to highlight is our combat against Unmatched Choices in online play. We are in hope that our Dragon’s patches will have resolved the majority of them and any lingering causes of them should be solved by this release. If you still continue to see them then please report them as they are still a top priority issue until we feel comfortable that no reports equate to no problems of this kind.
If you have reported or experienced and super specific issues and want to know if it’s been addressed then please ask and I’ll let you know.
TO NOTE: Getting the update will most likely make your old saves outdated due to all of the new code running in the background, so please complete any games you want to finish before getting the update.
Special thanks…
As always, we are grateful for all the hours that people choose to give to helping us improve the quality of Talisman: Digital Edition. For this expansion we gave more people access at an earlier stage and some folk really went above and beyond in helping us ensure the highest standards possible.
Thanks especially to Nemomon and Talisman Island for your continued hard work and support.
Dragon Patch - 23/11/17
Hey all!
v. 56887 should now be available for update.
So, it's a fairly small patch today but with some very important fixes in.
I'll list the changes below but just to highlight - the main thrust of this patch is to address the Unmatched Choices errors that a lot of online users have been experiencing. It's been super messy and it's taken a lot of effort to address these problems but we're quite confident that this patch should see a dramatic improvement to the online stability. There's a chance people may still occasionally see these problems (if you do, please report them!) but from this patch Unmatched Choices should be rare errors. Please give us feedback on this and let us know if you've seen any improvements!
Updates and Changes
No longer able to cancel teleporting after defeating the Eagle King
Gladiator's armour ability now works in character battles
Gauntlet ending will now work correctly with the dragon tower
Achievements are now working for the android version.

Harbinger Community Stream, Thu, 5pm (UK)
Hey all,
So, we'll be streaming Harbinger again which you'll be able to find over on our Twitch channel or over on our YouTube channel.
We're sort of on the verge of fixing the Unmatched_Choice errors that folk have been seeing lately and the beta group has allowed us the space to get builds out, checked, bugged, reported, fixed and maintained, as a result we will be running a community stream of the beta today. If all goes well we should be able to carry the changes over to the live builds and we should see a return to stable servers shortly.
We aim to be live at 5pm UK (6pm CET, 1pm EST, 10am PST), weather depending. If you've any Talisman related questions, want to know the latest Talisman news or if you wanna try and get something for free, we'll see you then.

Dragon Patch + Russian language - 10/10/17
Hello all,
A new update is now live – v. 55612
The big thing that comes with this latest patch is a Russian language option. It’s been, by far, the most requested language and thanks to the folk at ZoneofGames.ru we now have it in game! To use the Russian language go to options from the Talisman main menu and languages can be changed here.
A thing to note; this patch does not contain a direct fix for the unmatched choice messages that some users have been seeing. We’re hoping that the improvements to how the game handles memory will reduce/eradicate these errors that are happening. The thing that is making this particular issue difficult is we can’t get it to happen intentionally - it’ll only happen when we’re not looking. If anyone can find any step-by-step instructions for making it happen then this will be incredibly useful.
Patch Notes
Characters
Autokill should now work for the Dragon Rider against dragons.
Dragon Rider should no longer be able to capture the 'wrong' enemy.
Ghoul should be able to discard raised followers at the Vampire's Tower.
Movement followers shouldn't block the Dragon Rider's move ability.
The Gladiator's +1 for Armour Rolls should now work.
Enemies
Runes should only affect the Basilisk's attack score.
Spells
Can no longer use the Obliterate spell after you've attempted to escape Jail.
Fireball no longer harms a player who has used a Summon spell.
Objects
The Sacred Pool Treasure Chest should work with the Treasure Maps now.
Followers
Fang should no longer be able to be stolen via spell or ability.
If the Death Stalker is Conscripted it shouldn't appear in the reminder space.
Strangers
Nothing to note.
Spaces/Terrain/Places
You should now encounter the first Gauntlet card whilst in the Dragon's Tower.
You should be able to move away from the Mountain Pass if there is a Scale in place.
You can only get a Water Bottle from the Six-Fates Inn if you have 1 gold.

Thank you all for your continued feedback and helping us improve the game.
The Dragon Expansion - OUT NOW!
The Dragons have risen over the plains of Talisman. With them we see an introduction of six new endings, six new characters, 2 inner region replacements and 168 new cards.
The Dragon lords - Varthrax, Cadorus, and Grilipus - bring with them some complex mechanics in the form of dragon rages but with the complexity comes strategy and depth. Another mechanic is added to Talisman’s vast arsenal that increases just how dynamic the experience can be.
A user guide can be found here thanks to Artaterxes.
Updates and Changes
In Game UI
New tutorials for each expansion
The ending in play now has it’s own tab
Tab listings are now under the information panel
Tokens on board are now larger
Gained stat improvements are also displayed by token counters in inventories
Reroll opportunities now glow purple to separate them from normal rolls
There is now a discard and burn pile in the 'more decks' tab
Sudden death counter now accessible through button on the ending tab
Menus
New inner regions are listed under house rules
Alternate endings now have an enable all/disable all button
Advanced options has been cleaned up
Fixes
A patch list is near impossible to make due to balancing patches for the Firelands and developing Dragons. Knowing which bugs went live when reported in the threads against which bugs were fixed on the fly against which bugs were fixed through beta reports against which bugs were fixed because we broke the game fixing bugs in the beta but the live version never saw these bugs… insert more excuses here
The key fixes that people should be aware of is that we have found a number of causes that impact completing games (transferring from the victory screen to the XP screen), disconnecting during online play, launching resume games and rejoining. There’s been a lot of individual bug fixes for a lot of really niche issues but the network fixes should benefit all users that play online.
If you have reported or experienced and super specific issues and want to know if it’s been addressed then please ask and I’ll let you know.
TO NOTE: Getting the update will most likely make your old saves outdated due to all of the new code running in the background, so please complete any games you want to finish before getting the update.

Free Blood and Skulls for everyone this weekend in Talisman!
We’re releasing free Talisman characters today as part of the Games Workshop Skulls for the Skulls Throne promotion on Steam.
Whether it’s for Horus Heresy or Digital Edition you won’t be disappointed, Sanguinius and Ka’Bandha will be added to your warlord list in Horus Heresy and the Witch Doctor will be cursing his way onto the Digital Edition board.
All these characters are freely available to new and existing players as a token of Nomads appreciation to all our Talisman customers.
If you’re into the fantasy version, Talisman: Digital Edition, then the Witch Doctor can curse other characters with his evil eye, has a penchant for magic and great healing abilities. If Talisman: The Horus Heresy is your weakness there’s a whole character pack up for grabs with the formidable Sanguinius, Primarch of the Blood Angels Legion and Ka’Bandha the mightiest of Khornes servants, not to mention seven new encounter data slates and four new alternative game endings.
If you don’t own either of these games you can snap them up at a bargain price with 80% off the base games and up to 60% off expansions this weekend, as part of the Games Workshop Skulls for the Skull Throne Steam promotion.
Not only that we’ve released the next expansion for Talisman: The Horus Heresy - The Shadow Crusade has begun. While the Ultramarines reel from the Traitor surprise attack on Calth, Lorgar and the rest of the Word Bearers strike deep into the realm of Ultramar. Their unlikely allies, Angron and the World Eaters, continue to ravage each new system they come across.
The Shadow Crusade allows the player to explore the events of The Horus Heresy around the Ultramar System in more detail and play as the Warlords and Legions that fought there.
The Expansion has 6 new Warlords for you to play. Each Warlord also comes with their custom Legion Dataslates.
The free Talisman characters and Shadow Crusade are all available on Steam, iOS and Android.
