About the Game

“Yakum purkan min shemaya.” (Salvation will come from heaven). –Line from an Aramaic prayer.

Desert Eagles is an introductory level game about aerial combat set in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. Israel’s victory in this war assured its status as an independent nation, and set off decades of conflict with its Arab neighbors that lasts to this day.

Each copy of Desert Eagles is composed of the following:

• One 8.5 by 11 inch map with turn record track. • One sheet of 40 double-sided, un-mounted counters. • 3 pages of rules.

Players will also need a standard deck of playing cards to play the game.

Desert Eagles is designed by Paul Rohrbaugh and features graphics by David Prieto Gómez.
