What I have in mind is a bag of period games for each kingdom. I have already started looking for fabric for the bags. I would like 2-4 games with directions and all game pieces for each kingdom. I was thinking of Nine Man Morris, Shut the Box and Tablero. (Two games if they are as complicted to make as Tablero, Three games if the games are as easyto make as Shut the Box, Four games if we completely lose our minds) I have a book of Period games that others could be pulled from, but these I have tried out and I know that the directions make sense. I will be responsible for getting copies of directions for each group of games printed and laminated. Also, my favorite court game Ship, Captain, Mate & crew only requires dice, directions and a bag. The games can be made of any material. The boards need to be no larger than 10 x 10 inches so they will fit in the bag. They would only need individual bags to hold the pieces and directions. If there was a way to attach the bag for pieces to
 the board, that would be wonderful. Their majesties want the items from each barony by February.

Email me directly so that I can send diagrams of the board you are interested in creating. Make sure you sign or put a makers mark on your work. We want their majesties to know who did what. It is a lot easier to do award recommendations that way. : ) 

If you want to try something you have only heard of, let me know. I may have it in my game book; if not, it has a good bibliography that may help us out.
