Two new warlords join the battle in the 31 st Millennium, the Age of Darkness has begun in earnest.

Nomad Games are delighted to announce the release of two more powerful Warlords for Talisman: The Horus Heresy. The infamous River Hound Endryd Haar, and Calas Typhon will bring new tactical prowess to your force. Traitor or Loyalist, your army will not be complete without these two fearsome warlords. Both are available on iOS, Android and PC.

For the Loyalists – Endryd Haar 

At the start of the Horus Heresy, Haar was on a forgotten Crusade and was driven to madness after realizing his Legion had betrayed the Emperor. After the Battle of Isstvan III, he renounced his legion and became a Blackshields commander.

For the Traitors -Typhon

The First Captain of the Death Guard Legion once pursued the role of Epistolary in the Legion’s Librarius, but with the Primarch Mortarion harbouring a deep-rooted distrust of those who wield the powers of the psyker, Typhon suppressed his gift and strove instead to serve as a war leader.

This is the fourth character expansion pack for Talisman: The Horus Heresy and each Warlord comes with their custom Legion Dataslates, plus new Encounter and Incantation Dataslates.

Special Deal

To celebrate the release of the card pack Talisman: The Horus Heresy is 40% off on all platforms all weekend!

Now for those of you who are new to Talisman: The Horus Heresy:

Talisman: The Horus Heresy is available via Steam for the co-op and competitive digital board game set in the prequel timeline of Warhammer 40,000!

 

Nomad Games is pleased tooffer Talisman: The Horus Heresy, now available via Steam.

Talisman: The Horus Heresy is a digital board game based on the Talisman rule system and set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, during the cataclysmic events of the Horus Heresy.

Up to four players will be able to take control of one or more of the galaxy’s greatest heroes or most notorious villains. Taking the side of either traitor or loyalist, these Warlords will form a vast Legion of Space Marines, battalions of tanks and battlefleets of Spacecraft.

The new combative team play will appeal to fans of Talisman and the Horus Heresy alike. It’s a unique adaptation of Talisman that has been tailored specifically for digital platforms.  In Talisman: The Horus Heresy the player’s experience of Talisman is scaled up exponentially, exploring not a kingdom but a whole galaxy in the 31st Millennium. No longer will you be fighting for the Crown of Command, but for the very future of humanity…

“We’re absolutely ecstatic to release this version of Talisman to our fans. The Horus Heresy era, set 10,000 years before the main events of Warhammer 40,000, is an iconic and amazing time in the universe’s timeline. Our game allows players to take their favorite heroes (or villains) and vie for a chance to rule the galaxy.” – Nomad Games MD Donald Whiteford

Nomad Games first brought the multiplayer version of the Games Workshop board game Talisman to PC, tablets and mobile devices in 2014, with the brand selling over one million units to date. Talisman: The Horus Heresy will see several DLC packs throughout 2016, with new heroes, villains, and more as part of the optional add-on plans. Talisman: The Horus Heresy will also be released on mobile formats in the Spring. More news on those formats is forthcoming.
