"Boats" Bits

At Cracked Anvil a couple weeks ago, Master Beorhtlic introduced Seamas, Edrei, and I to a game called "Boats." Throw skill and strategy out the window...Boats is a neat little game that relies entirely on luck.

I've spent several hours today painting a game board and making player tokens. The tokens look more like swan boats (Seamas says "duck decoys") than Viking longships, and the board definitely looks hand-drawn, but this is going to be so much fun!

**UPDATE**
Seamas won the first two games...drat!

Now, though, I need to write down the rules so we can take the game out to fighter practice and inflict it upon the populace!
