Marco Donadoni

picture info	Marco Donadoni Marco Alberto Donadoni (born in Milan, 8 November 1951) is an Italian game designer. He designed his first, self-produced wargame, ''Iliad'', in 1977; he then joined the Italian company International Team (IT), that at the time was mainly a jigsaw puzzle producer. IT published ''Iliad'' and changed its core business, focusing on the Wargaming, wargame market, with Donadoni being its main game designer. Between the late 1970s and the early 1980s, Donadoni created a number of games for IT, some of which, like ''Zargo's Lords'' and ''Kroll & Prumni'', were very successful and largely contributed to popularize wargaming in Italy and other European countries, such as France. Angelo Porazzi, designer of ''Warangel'' (one of the most popular Italian wargames of recent years) has often cited Donadoni's work as one of his major sources of inspiration. Donadoni remained as IT's main game designer until the company went bankrupt in the late 1980s, designing more than a hundred games.Dadi, cart ...

	Magic Wood ''Magic Wood'' is a 1979 board game published by International Team. When it first appeared in the U.S., the suggested retail price of the game was $17.95, considerably more than many other board games of the time. Gameplay ''Magic Wood'' is a game in which elves, gnomes, goblins, and trolls all work to capture one another using foxes, ferrets, and martens for help. There are no dice; each player is simply given a move of seven that can be divided between any of the pieces the player currently has. Reception In the May 1980 edition of Dragon (Issue 37), William Fawcett found the gameplay of ''Magic Wood'' to be too simplistic and the graphics too childish to appeal to devoted gamers. He thought the rules booklet was "a poor translation from the Italian, and it took me several readings to figure out a playable set of rules. This is perhaps the game’s greatest failing... Many areas are not covered or left ambiguous and unclear." Due to its childish simplicity and high price, Fawcet ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

picture info	The Most Renowned War Legend ''The'' is a grammatical article in English, denoting nouns that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with nouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of the archaic pronoun ''thee'') ...
