I've downloaded Jocklyboard to play Brandubh but the rules are wrong in several ways:

  • all pieces move like rook in chess (and not like King in chess as actually set)
  • to win, the king must reach corners, not side of the board
  • corners are restricted and hostile places, like central throne
  • out of his throne, the king is capture with only 2 attackers, not 4 (except beside the throne where it needs 3 attackers to capture him)

Detailed rules are available on World Tafl Federation website: http://aagenielsen.dk/historical_hnefatafl_rules.php
