Hnefatafl print-and-play file with a 7x7 board and elaborate starting layout. The board and pieces fit nicely onto one A4 sheet of paper, with the assembly and play instructions on a second sheet.

The suggested rules are Magpie. This idea was created by Nigel Suckling for his book The Leprechaun Companion, and is based on the ancient Irish game brandub. A leprechaun has found a sack of gold, and must get it home with the help of four friends, while eight thieves try to steal the gold from him.
