Viking Game- Hnefatafl Also known as "The Viking Game," "The King's Table," or, most simply, "Tafl." Being one of the oldest games, little is known of its beginnings as the game play has evolved as it was introduced across land and culture. Linen game board with 37 game pieces (12 light defenders, 1 light King piece, 24 dark attackers) stored in original box. Purchased new as historical replica.
