Just discovered this game, really cool. gets addictive, though playing with the computer isnt as good as with other people, so if anyone wants to schedule a time we can play online, please do :D

just thought the orgahs would like this sort of game, I might create a board for it if I cant find one and play it as a board game. really fun!

[Prussian to the Iron]

We despise stuff we can't pronounce properly around here, kid. :smoking:

[Prussian to the Iron]

I pronounce it:

Huh
Nef
Uh
Tafel

then again, German class has trained me to handle multiple consanants fairly well.

I click on the thing that says 9x9 board and it doesnt load. I try the others, nothing loads for me :/

[LeftEyeNine]

No pronounciation, no fun, sorray. :smoking:

I love that game. Got a proper board with replica Viking pieces :gring:

While I can't tell you how the full name is pronounced, I can say that it's called 'tafl' for short and that's supposedly pronounced taff-l, with a soft l. Tafl meaning table in old Norse.

and Tafel menaing table in German :P. Norwegian being a germanic language.
