IMT New Stock in/available March 2009

"in" = has come into stock;
"due in" = advised available & ordered (or about to be) for stock;
"available" = advised available & orderable, but not ordered - yet!
[this is of course liable to change, upon receipt of your *g* - ppint.]

N.B: the main "interesting games" wholesaler has warned that, with the fall of the ukL from us$2 to ~us$1.50, the cost prices and therefore the ukL rrps of games imported from merkia are going to be rising by ~30% above their pre-November 2008 prices; this is unavoidable.
some of the new, higher ukL prices have already begun to feed through, so if there are games, sourcebooks, expansions and adventures already in stock (or available) that you know you want, please don't leave buying them too long, or the prices could easily be (roughly) one third higher than they are now...

    [back in after aaaages - since at least late autumn 2008 - being unavailable from wholesalers because out of stock at makers]
    the classic letter-grouping &/or word-creation equivalent of Rummikub, above; both these games are fun and good ways of encouraging youngsters to spot patterns & possibilities, and learn through play rather than as a task; but have a dictionary by you suitable for reference for the correct spelling of vocabulary likely to be used to be checked/pointed out!
    not precisely a boardgame, but does require a table (or clean, reasonably flat, floor) for the 106 piece Number Tile Pool, and somewhere flat & level for each player to stand their Triple-Tier Tile Rack while they form runs, and threes & fours of a number upon them, and organise ways of adding to (or to which to remove) tiles already played, and upon which they they may lay out the tiles they play.
    contains 112 Letter Tiles, 4 Racks, and the Rules ("detailed instructions")
    For 2-4 Players Aged 8-96 [it says; i'd hazard 6 & 7 year-olds who're reading would likely enjoy the game too]; playing-time is somewhat elastic, but say 20-40 Minutes
    [again, simple, intermediate or downright complex sets of rules are possible for older players, including playing in different languages: - a tile wordgame based upon "Rummy", or any variation of the enclosed rules you care to create, so long as everyone's agreed on them - and the language! - ppint.]
    [and again, sets may be combined for larger numbers of players]
  • Zombiegeddon - NEW GAME - in 18th March 2009 ukL 24.99
    The End of the World is Nigh - you have this on impeccable assurances - and Armageddon is only just around the corner (actually, it begins tonight) and since it may be some time before you'll be able to go shopping again, it may be an idea to collect as many supplies today as you can lay your hands on - and hang onto...
    you'll spend the first half of the game rushing around the board collecting supplies and defending them from your neighbours, and the second half hoping you've enough laid by, and acquiring aught you think you may be lacking, however and from whomever you can, that you'll need to survive the ensuing long, cold nuclear winter...
    contains 216 assorted Supply, Ammunition, Barricade, Zombie and Marker Disks, 16 Pawns, the 22" x 16" (c. 56 x 38 cm) Game Board and the Rules
