Re: Medieval Market

I think if you want the people to learn Hnefatafl (or simple Tafl), you'd let the blacks begin, for that's the standard rule in all variants (except recent experiments here at aagenielsen.dk). It's not that important the game is balanced, in the short time people get to know the game. The abandon of...

Re: A new tafl-derived game

Hi Alessandro, I played both versions. They're about equal in gameplay. It's important to be aware no one can cross the central piece (save the king), so you must get at least one or two pieces 'on the other half' on time, otherwise your opponents' king will quickly have unlimited access to the thro...

A new tafl-derived game

Hi you all, I conceived a new game, which lacks the typical tafl characteristics for being perfectly symmetrical and featuring armies of equal quantity, and there are 2 kings. However, it is based on tafl inasmuch it applies the same movements and 2-way captures. Since I was on it, I figured out 2 d...

Re: I've started to draw a few graphics for aagenielsen.dk

Hi Aage I designed a new set of pieces for the newest Tyr game. You know, the one we're testing right now, without the v-men. Again, I wanted to design the commanders seated on a horse, so I wouldn't have to put a large 'C' on them. (I tried this before on TYR!17 x 17 but these proved to be too uncl...

Nice design. I think all sea battle games are 'occupied' so to speak, but maybe one of the existing designs can be replaced with yours. It's up to Hagbard to change the pieces, since he's the webmaster.
