funny idea! Are there any additional rules or just "Mensch, ärg're Dich nicht!"?

By the way ... this game is highly psychotic and very dangerous for children, even to the standard of bloody wargaming! In tabletopgames it is about brave fighters, heroic deeds and sometimes cunning deception! This game is just about sneeking Your enemy from behind and killing him while he is completely unaware of any hostility!

Gee ... and my parents loved to play THAT with me ... ts, ts, ts

best wishes  lol

Also on this one side - (Lat.: 'I play')

Wouldn't surprise me if the game was actually invented and played by the Roman aristocracy, btw... would suit them.

Funniest 'Fia med Knuff' ([Phi-uh med knooph] as it is called in Sweden) I've ever seen. I've played lots of it and still quite like it. We use quite brutal rules, mind...

I guess, 'Fia' is a name.. but what does 'Knuff' mean??

To push or scuffle. Or hustle.

Jalaluddin Muhammad Akbar, the Moghul Emperor depicted in the Bollywood movie Jodhaa Akbar, liked to play the original Indian version of the game using his harem girls as playing pieces.

They should have put that in the damn movie.
