I just found this site doing some research on Ancient Egypt. I thought someone might be interested, as a source for their writing of course (wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more) in the rules of ancient games.

That's really intersting. Thanks for posting it.

I've played the UR game in boardgame form and it is a great game. The freeware version has a bizarre opening screen, that is uniquely offensive in several ways. (HSO might wish to take notice of that) Otherwise the freeware version play sfiarly well.

Sweet, I actually could use that in the story I'm working on now, I just didn't get around to researching it yet... guess I don't have to now...
