![]() Greater background information is given in " Thud - A Historical Perspective". 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. According to Lord Vetinari, the goal of the game should be to discover one's own weaknesses. According to Reacher Gilt, a well-played game of Thud can reveal the weaknesses of one's opponent. A match therefore consists of two games with the players alternating sides. A careful player can achieve victory for the Trolls, however. In a game of Thud, the Dwarfs' side has a natural advantage and will inevitably win against an unskilled player. It is played mainly by Dwarfs and Trolls, although it does have devoted human players as well. Thud is a board game based on the earlier dwarfish game of Hnaflbaflsniflwhifltafl. ![]() If you were looking for the book, see Thud! ![]()
