"Past Times" on Wicklow St. used to sell Fidhchell boards, and perhaps they still do. Whether the rules are the same, or a modern re-invention, I couldn't say.

It's a great game. Harder to be the Guard than the Attacker. I can't member the proper names for it, but the red is easier tahn the black!
