Playing Medieval Board Games

Today in class we will be playing medieval board games, including Nine Men’s Morris, Tafl, and Fox and Geese.

I’ve found board games and rules and the students will be able to play with each other.

I am also including one version of sailor’s solitaire, a peg jumping game, in case I have an odd number of students tomorrow.

This is a Tafl board, but called Brandbuh, which is the Irish name.
