Hnefatafl Board Game - Viking Chess Set - Masters Edition  

MTG Logo
  Hnefatafl is a fascinating board game of Viking origin that is at least 1500 years old. Also known as Viking Chess, It is a deeply strategic war game of unequal sides with the king and his guards outnumbered by the attacking forces. The 'white' player must move their King to one of the corner squares to win, whilst the 'dark' player must hinder the progress and capture / kill the King.

This premium quality Hnefatafl set contains beautiful, moulded resin pieces with exceptional levels of detail. There are 37 playing pieces in total - 12 defenders, 24 attackers and 1 King. The Viking Chess pieces are in two different designs and finished in simulated wood and cream colours. They are based on the famous 12th century Lewis Chessmen.

The game board is made from natural linen and is nicely decorated with typical Viking patterns and symbols. The linen Hnefatafl board is lightweight, practical and can be folded / rolled up for easy storage.

The game is presented in a decorated cardboard box and comes with a set of multi-lingual rules based on those played in the 9th and 10th centuries and using the Hnefatafl board of 11 x 11 squares.
