That looks like a fantastic game!  I like the music you have in that video too.  I think it fits very well.

Sorry if it was already said in the text of the video, but what happens if a player hits one of the blocks in the top row when there are blocks in the bottom row?  Is the block from the top put back in its original place?

if you hit your opponent's stones, these stones are out of the game.  this gives your opponent a great advantage.  if you hit your own stones in the upper level and your lower level is not yet free, then these stones will be put back in their place.  if the king is hit prematurely, the game is lost.

Finally! We've been waiting for this video for months, Jaegoor!  This is an excellent game. It looks very fun.

Mersa! You could do this like one does chess by mail/post. You just have a duplicate set up in both locations... We should try it.

For those who don't speak/read German and are too lazy to type it into Google Translate, here is the Google Translate version of Jaegoor's explanation of the game.

"Kubb is an old game which we also call "Viking Chess". In fact, this game is much older. Even during excavations in ancient Egypt, a Kubb game was found. Since the slingshot has been with us humans for a long time, nothing is closer than to combine the two. Here is a new version of the Kupp game. Of course you can vary it as you like. This version plays very well with a sling. See for yourself. "

Jaegoor, what are the dimensions of the pieces and the spacing/gaps between the horizontal boards that you used?

I love this idea!  And don’t worry… if the targets on my side look bigger it’s probably just camera distortion 🤷‍♂️

I, without sin, shall cast the first stone. That will be your sign to attack! But you shall not fight this unholy enemy with stones. No! RAZOR GLANDES!  Aim for the eyes!

Die Steine stehen bei mir ein Stein Länge auseinander. Übrigens konnte ich sieben Steine schlagen mit zehn Schuss. Wink Mir gefallen Holzklötze besser als Dosen
