I have played many games of Hnefatafl, as it is similar in strategy to Chess. The largest difference between the two games is the fact that there are two different play styles for Hnefatafl (Attackers and Defenders).
Hnefatafl is one of the many Tafl games originating in old norse. Other versions include: Ard Ri, Brandubh, Tablut, Tawlbwrdd, and Alea Evangelii.
