This was replaced by the newer:

  veymey puS neH chenmoHlu'pu' 
  Limited Edition. 
  (i.e. "Only a few {veymey} have been made.") 

{vey} appeared again on the box cover:

  boSwI'vaD veyvam le' chenmoHlu' 
  Collector's Edition.
  (i.e. "this special {vey}, made for the collector")

> So, the translation "box" or "container" is looking very feasible.

So {'aplo'} would be the game box itself.  Including all its contents (board, cards, game pieces, dice)?

What's the current consensus on {vey}?  Copy?  Issue?  Edition?  Version?  Set?
