Description (435 chars)
A modern take on the viking classic (hnefatafl). In Valknut two players assume the role of one asymmetric faction and try to eliminate each other by flanking enemy units. The battleground itself gets built as the game progresses increasing even more the replayability. In case of a tie (if the last Battleground card gets placed and no team was fully eliminated) victory is decided by Points. —description from the designer
