Games Table

Wild idea -- a games table that a bunch of people can gather around to play some games.
We already have dice in the game, but the biggest "table" that's 8x8 or bigger is either small enough that you can't have "the crew" gather round to play and/or watch,
or it's immovable, or it's a Knarr and would be pretty awkward to use as a table...

So my proposal: A new, possibly liftable, games table (tafl table?) that's 3x3 tiles in size to support a whole bunch of people playing/watching.
The grid could be bigger too (just don't let it go into carts/wagons) since it would take up so much space anyways!
Maybe even make a nice fancy layout on the grid (or maybe a variety of options?) could be neat.

Think about it! You got d6 dice already, could use coins for game "tokens", and other various items for game pieces (wood type colored game piece curio when??).
Now we just need cards! Hah... (Jorb, Loftar, please, let me make a deck of cards -- even if it's not customizeable) but that deserves its own thread...

Some nice extra features would be some sort of quick permissions for the table owner to select who can place or take from the board.
Being able to place bets while not being able to swipe the whole board would be much good.

Make a Tafl Table, gather the crew, play some games! Yeah!

There should also be a portable one that you can put in the new pouch slots. Someone chasing you with murderous intent? You whip out a board game and say "shall we solve this dispute like real gentlemen"?
