Hnefatafl Travel Game New Boards (The Viking Game)

Hnefatafl is an ancient strategy game often called the Viking Game or Viking Chess. The king sits on his throne at the centre of the board protected by 12 of his defenders and surrounded by 24 attackers ready for battle. For attackers to win the battle they must capture the king; for the defenders to win, the king must find his escape. Strategies are different for playing attacker or defender, so try both sides. For more information on Tafl games see the Wikipedia.

These are new versions of the boards that will fit my board game storage container, which now only require three colours. I have provided the playing pieces again that are only slightly modified from the last release.

The boards are:

• 11x11 Hnefatafl - used in Copenhagen rules
• 9x9 Tablut
• 7x7 Brandubh

Please refer to my previous release Hnefatafl Travel Game (The Viking Game) for more information.

I recommend printing in PETG especially if there's a likelihood of being kept in a vehicle.
