I have a couple of 2-player starter sets (6th and 7th) that have an orange starburst on them with writing that appears to be Turkish or some kind of Arabic. did we already know about these? has anyone else seen them? i'm pretty certain that the cards inside are english. I can post pics if these are new.

I'm sorry, it was 6th and Starter 2000. I went to the Library's Starter 2000 page and didn't see these.

Sorry the pic is so crappy - it's the best I can do from home. the writing in the circle is the same on both, but on the 6th edition one there is an extra line (possibly arabic or hebrew).

the Starter one is WOC 34012 and the 6th one is WOC34004.

On the 6th Edition starter, the text appears to be, from top to bottom:

Modern Greek
Hebrew
[unknown]

And on the Starter 2000:

Modern Greek
[unknown]

I wouldn't doubt the unknowns being Turkish, though, considering what they appear to state. I'd say I'm 95% sure on the Greek and 98% on the Hebrew. Unless there are other popular languages that use the same characters that I'm not aware of, those are what they are.

Hi Mark.
These are true Rarities for me :shock:
The Starter 2000 have Greek and Turkish Rules.
The Starter 6Th Edition have Greek,Hebrew,Turkish Rules.
I 'm totally interested by the Starter 2000 :wink:
