Terry has written a special introduction to the beginnings of Thud that
will only be available to visitors of the official Thud web site. The full
text is due to be available from Monday 25th March.
A small teaser appears below:
Thud
The role of games in the histories of both dwarfs and trolls has been very important.
Perhaps the most famous was the dwarfish game of Hnaflbaflsniflwhifltafl,
devised by the cunning inventor Morose Stronginthearm for Hugen, High King
of the Dwarfs. Hugen had asked for a game that would teach young dwarfs
the virtues of preparedness, strategy, boldness and quick thinking, and
Morose came up with a board game that has some early resemblance to the
Thud board.
The game swept through the dwarfish world, and was very popular. Hugen,
being well pleased, asked Morose what he wanted as a reward. The inventor
is on record as saying: "If it please you, your majesty, I ask for nothing
more than that you should place one plk [a small gold piece then in general
circulation] on the first square, two on the second, four of the third and
so on until the board is filled.'

преди около седмица и половина си го разпечатах туй и си го прочетох преди лягане :) Доколкото разбрах става дума за нещо между шах и китайски шах, само че не бих си купил дъска и фигури, заради <ниските> цени :) Просто не са по българския джоб :) Иначе интрото на Пратчет е добро, даже обяснява някои неизвестни неща относно битката при Куум вали :)
Да уточня, играта е интересна и бих си я купил ако живеех по английският стандарт :)
А ето и продължението, което обяснява защо не трябва да искате прекалено много :)
The king readily agreed to this, and had a sack of gold brought from the treasury. However, the count had not been going on for very long before it became clear that what Morose had asked for was, in fact, all the gold in the universe.
This presented a problem for the king, who had given his word, but he solved it by producing his axe and ordering two of his servants to drag Morose over to the window, where the light was better. At this point Morose hastily amended his request to "as much gold as he could carry", whereupon Hugen agreed and merely had one of his arms broken. "For," he said, "all should know that while Hnaflbaflsniflwhifltafl teaches preparedness, strategy, boldness and quick thinking, it is also important to know when not be too drhg'hgin clever by half."
There are three determined states the cat could be in: Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.
