Masters Traditional Games Viking Chess Set Cloth Board and Resin Pieces

The Masters Traditional Games Viking Chess Set is a board game that has its origins in the Viking culture and is at least 1500 years old. It is also known as Hnefatafl or Viking Chess. This game is a strategic war game where the lighter pieces try to protect and move their King to safety while the darker pieces attempt to capture the King. The set includes a linen cloth board and highly detailed resin pieces, and comes in a decorated cardboard box. It also includes multi-lingual rules based on those played in the 9th and 10th centuries and a board with 11 x 11 squares. Hnefatafl is easy to learn but has good strategic depth, making it an authentic and enjoyable game for players of all skill levels.
