Sankoré - The Pride of Mansa Musa (Game): Fabio Lopiano, Mandela Fernandez-Grandon Sankoré - The Pride of Mansa Musa (Game)
Fabio Lopiano, Mandela Fernandez-Grandon; Illustrated by Ian O'Toole
R1,550 Discovery Miles 15 500 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

A dynamic, interactive, mid-weight eurogame for one to four players, following the rise in fortunes of the prestigious University of Sankoré in 14th-century Timbuktu. Tasked by the emperor, Mansa Musa, with spreading knowledge throughout West Africa, players must each manage a prestigious school within the Sankoré Madrasa as this great university is raised around them. By enrolling and graduating your pupils, teaching classes, adding to your curriculum, and filling the great library with books, you will advance knowledge in four main disciplines: theology, law, mathematics, and astronomy. Once construction of the university is complete, the value that the empire places on each discipline will dramatically affect how you score the knowledge you have passed on. In a dedicated solo mode, you will be competing against a distinguished scholar, a passionate and ambitious academic controlled by an elegant automated system. They may not be as nimble as you, but they are focused and driven and will strive to produce the best possible students. Can you navigate the corridors of academic competition and bring renown to Mansa Musa's prized university? Ages: 14+ Players: 1-4 Playing Time: 150-180 minutes Contents: Main Board, 4 Player Boards, 260+ Wooden Pieces, 190+ Tokens, 25+ Cards

Fabio Lopiano; Illustrated by Ian O'Toole
R1,131 Discovery Miles 11 310 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

A tense, economic eurogame for one to four players, charting the rise and fall of the 12th Century's greatest city.

The ancient city of Merv. A gateway between the East and the West. A hub of scholarship and trade. The greatest city in the world.

In Merv: The Heart of the Silk Road players are vying to amass power and wealth in the prosperous city at the centre of the land. Through careful court intrigue, timely donations to the grand mosque, and securing favourable trade deals, players attempt to redirect as much of that prosperity as possible into their own pockets.

Meanwhile, beyond the city walls Mongol hordes approach. If you help construct the city walls you give up on precious opportunities to build up your own stature, but leave it unprotected and you will burn with the city. Every decision is weighty and the consequences of each misstep are dire. Will you rise to prominence or fade into oblivion?
