Hnefatafl

The Viking board game, in the browser: the attackers must take the king, the king must reach the edge. Tablut, the nine-by-nine game Linnaeus wrote down in 1732, by default, on a board that shows its age; Copenhagen rules on the eleven-by-eleven board, where the king needs a corner, as an option.

Built on the game kit: src/lib/game/ is the game (rules as data in rules.ts, the board's mechanics in board.ts, the engine in index.ts, a short alpha-beta bot in bot.ts), src/lib/components/Board.svelte is the board, and everything else is the kit's hall, tables, gallery, ledgers, reports desk and ops tools. docs/conventions.md is the house style; the guide here departs from it in one way, walking the page in words and one drawn figure rather than screenshots.
