So I seen this game on sale and thought it would be neat, it's called Viking Hnefatafl Game, basically it is just color glass stones and a dice in a leather bag that folds out to a game board, Sounds fun and simple and I think I'll get because it is cheap at the moment. But it made me wonder what other games did early Medieval folks play for fun, especially in the army camps and gambling. Thanks.
