Hi and happy new year.
Since you're keeping track of Tafl events on your website, here are some news from 2018 that you may consider for publication.

In 2018 a network for traditional Sámi board games, Daabloe (link:https://www.facebook.com/daabloe) was established. One of the games promoted in the network is tablut. During the fall of 2018, tablut was taught and played at ten Daabloe-organized events in Norway: in Oslo (3), Guovdageaidnu (2), Bodø and Alta.

In 2018, the Daabloe network's Mikkel Berg-Nordlie, Ingemund Skålnes, and Astri Mari Nyborg designed a set of 3D-printable pieces and dice that can be used to play all traditional Sámi board games. They were released on Thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3090372) under a Creative Commons license (print them for free, but don't sell them). Files for freely printing or laser burning boards were posted on the Daabloe facebook group (https://m.facebook.com/groups/2085478548176555). Pieces, dice and boards are based on traditional Sámi board game duodji (handicraft).
