If you have never tried Tablut, you are in for a strategic treat! In a game is kind of like a cross between Chess and Go, this game will have you working overtime to try and win against your opponets!
You will start on a square gameboard (like chess) and move pieces trying to capture or evade. If you play for the aggressors you must get the king before he reaches the corner of the board. If he makes it there, he is safe and the invasion has failed. If you are being attacked, you just get the king to a corner.
It's not as easy as it seems though. All pieces can move like rooks and you can have your men captured. You capture a piece by surrounding him on two opposing sides (similar to Go).
