  1. This winter I did some cool stuff with #Hnefatafl, an unsymmetric #viking board game that's been recreated. Our version forces the current player to make a capturing move if one exists. It's playable here: kyleburke.info/DB/combGames/fo There is a deterministic path to victory on the Brandubh board for the Attackers in three moves. See if you can find it!

    I've been having fun playing against the Medium "AI" on the Ard Rí board. (I lose most of the time.)

    We showed that the general game of Forced-Capture Hnefatafl is PSPACE-hard: arxiv.org/abs/2301.06127
