    in the mosey attack, tha attack was not stopped untill the murderer decided he had enough.

    Not according to this week’s Mishpacha.

    Machi Koro’s not a deck-building game…
    And yes, Spyfall’s art is not necessarily for frum eyes. Also, you need a good
    I am probably aware of any game as old (in hobby years) and successful as
    Clank! (see also Clank! In! Space!, Clank! Legacy). Also, in that same year,
    Tyrants of the Underdark used deck-building to drive a territory-control
    game and Automobiles used it to drive a racing game. This is old news. : )

    What’s a CD? 🙂

    (It sounds like you want to make a compilation CD, aka a mixtape. Correct if wrong.)
    Single tracks are often purchasable in mp3 form.

    I find it a bit odd that it says the last post on this thread was
    less than 2 hours ago, but the last post’s date is back in February.

    I think the system bumps threads before posts are approved.

    Where do you get kings of Israel and king Solomon etc.?
    Sound like great games but I never heard of them.

    I wouldn’t necessarily recommend them over other games, as your first
    “modern games,” or even at all in some cases. Also, although the themes
    might sound appealing, be aware that these games were not created by
    frum Jews.

    Availability:
    Kings of Israel – Amazon, BoardGameBliss
    Kingdom of Solomon (newer printing titled “Wisdom of Solomon”) – Amazon, BoardGameBliss
    QuestZion (The Game of Israel) – Amazon
    Nehemiah – BoardGameBliss
    Promised Land: 1250-587 BC – Out of print, not commercially available.
    Package Has Arrived – I was surprised to find that this is still in print. It’s in Hebrew,
    and it’s not a modern design at all, bit if you’re interested, Google “???? “????? ????.
    A Reign of Missiles – Directly from the manufacturer’s website.
    The Settlers of Canaan (based on Settlers of Catan) – Out of print. eBay has lower prices
    than Amazon. (I remember this one as being incorrect in some aspects – perhaps the
    timing of the conquest of Yerushalayim? Something like that, anyway.)

    I just found a game which had this in its description:
    Earn money from festive Polish and Yiddish vacationers

    Letnisko (Summer Resort in English) depicts the development of summer
    resorts along the Warsaw-Otwock railroad in the second half of 1930s.

    I just found the idea of Machi Koro Legacy amusing.

    I don’t see what Dominion has to do with Machi Koro (unlike
    the clearly similar Space Base and Valeria: Card Kingdoms).

    “Official” rules only exist if established by a game’s designer or an acknowledged society for
    competitive play. This excludes many folk games (and such games often have regional variations).

    The first 3 English volumes are a translation of (most of) the first Hebrew volume. I don’t know about the other English volumes (I think there are 2 which compile material relevant to specific Yomim Tovim), but the full MM is definitely not covered.

    School generally do not allow students to leave their grounds during school hours, and the students will be going home to their own neighborhoods once school hours are over. Theoretically, the only extra work involved for outside forces is participating in keeping students from leaving the grounds. Am I missing something?
