Knuckling Knights

THe Duel

This is a sequel to Knuckling Knights. Once again the knights want to joust against each other in the courtyard fo Kong Benjamin’s castle to find the best Knuckling Knight. But this time they do not roll the dice, they snip! If you win the Knuckling round, you receive a Knuckle coin from the king. If you own most of these coins at the end of the game, you win!

In each round, two knights joust against each other. The duelists are determined by revealing the first Knuckle disc: The colours in the coat-of-arms determine the knights and the top coat-of-arms determines the starting player. Each player sets his knight disc on a horse on the board. Then both snip forward their knight using their shield. If you snip the other knight off the tournament arena you earn a knuckle coin. But take care! To win a duel you must snip the opposing knight off and your own disc must remain in the arena, because if you snip your own knight off you lose instantly. A knight is considered off the tournament arena when he touches the table surface. In case of three players you take out the Knuckle discs of the colour not in play. For two players there is a special rule, the Knuckle discs are not revealed, the first player to win 6 coins wins the game.

Knuckling Knights The Duel is the best example for how to make an exceedingly good new game out of old, well-loved and well-known mechanism and at the same time combining training with fun and action. And on top of all that, the game is easy to carry along and can be played anywhere, as it needs very little room to play.
