A question for fans of the game / character editor?
Hi all. I do not know where to write, but since there is a tavern, I am writing here. We have a club of board games in the city, and we often create our own home rules, including the characters of the game. If anyone remembers, some time ago I was creating a theme about a healer character, which apparently many did not like. On its basis, we have come up with another. If there are board games fans among you too, I would like to hear your comments about this.

And just ask a Nomad question - will there be a character editor in the future? Or a toolkit with the help of which it would be possible to make your own fan addons.

Defintely i dont think there will be such an editor. Nomad will release any extra character as a DLC as have done with the rest characters. For me I prefer to see the fun-made stuff released under Nomad as they will test that content themselves before they will release it

How could an editor allow the programming of new abilities?
You'd need to be an actual dev.

Great art btw!
Perhaps you could indeed give a few ideas and art for new chars to the team?

I also believe an editor would be impossible due to the programming that would be involved.... but I agree... why not share these ideas anyway - maybe Nomad are looking for this sort of thing? Your 'Witch herbalist' is a pretty cool character ! With really nice art.... and certainly fits into the Talisman world. I might tweak her abilities a bit .... Think I'd have starting craft as 3 .. and maybe allow her to heal life with the herb tokens themselves ? Dunno... - but I certainly like her! I have to speak up for the witches though... she shouldn't be evil... I'd have her neutral and allow her to change... also she would more likely be a 'cottage witch' or a 'hedge witch' ...they were predominantly healers - old world doctors really - and were persecuted as 'evil' and 'against God' due to Christian fear - and a lot of political power abuse actually....

Not necessary. A classic example is the trigger editor in warcraft3 map editor. There even the child will understand, the main thing is to understand the logic (If, then, else). For those who want difficulties - there is a possibility to write scripts by hand. I am sure that, by analogy, a similar editor can be made here, especially since all relevant official addons have now been published. What's next? Or the inevitable outflow of the community due to stagnation. Or the further development of the project with new content. Nomad is also not a bottomless pit of new ideas, so the right decision would be to create editors so that the players themselves make fresh content and share it with each other. The character editor can be like a pilot project - to see how the community responds to it. If it is positive, then in the future it will not be difficult to make the editor of game regions (again, using triggers or scripts).

Thanks for the kind words. Maybe you have an idea how to add a character, or vice versa, what to remove? I like the idea called "hedge witch". Only if you make it neutral, then need to change the avatar to the former, since this one is more inclined to be evil. ;)
