Description
Brandub is a game from medieval Ireland that is mentioned in several Irish texts. These documents seem to outline an asymmetrical game with a special piece in the center, similar to other tafl games such as Tablut. It is uncertain what the size of the board was, or what form the pieces took.
Rules
King piece. Four defenders with the king. King starts in the central space, with one defender on each side.
