	'''Thud''' is a board game based on the earlier dwarfish game of [[Hnaflbaflsniflwhifltafl]]. It is played mainly by [[Dwarfs]] and [[Trolls]], although it does have devoted human players as well. In a game of Thud, the Dwarfs' side has a natural advantage and will inevitably win against an unskilled player. A careful player can achieve victory for the Trolls, however. A match therefore consists of two games with the players alternating sides. According to [[Reacher Gilt]], a well-played game of Thud can reveal the weaknesses of one's opponent. According to [[Lord Vetinari]], the goal of the game should be to discover one's own weaknesses. [[Mr Shine]] hopes that encouraging Dwarfs and Trolls to play Thud will promote peace between the two by providing an outlet for replaying the [[Battle of Koom Valley]] in miniature - and ''bloodlessly''. Greater background information is given in [[Short Story:Thud-A Historical Perspective\|''Thud-A Historical Perspective'']].

	The game itself echos the game played by Vikings and Anglo-Saxons {{wp\|Tafl games#Hnefatafl\|"Hnefatafl"}}- which literally means "Kings Table". Hnefatafl echos go beyond just the name. Like 'Thud' it is unusual in that it is an 'asymmetrical' game - each side has different forces and different objectives (unlike, say, [[Stealth Chess\|Chess]]). The defending side is trying to get the King to safety and escape on a corner square, while the besiegers/attackers are trying to either capture the king, or position their forces so his escape is impossible. Making Kings safe is of course a recurring theme in {{TFE}} and {{T!}}.
