For the King's Force, would it be more appropriate here to say - foireann an Rí ?

This is what I've come up with (with some help of course) - any corrections gratefully received.

HNEFATAFL (Cluiche uigingeach)

Tá licín glas amháin (an Rí) agus ocht licíní ghorma ag imreoir amháin. Tá sé licíní dhéag dhearga ag an imreoir eile (an Namhaid).

CUSPÓIRÍ: Don fhoireann an Rí: Bealach a réiteach don Rí go dtí ceann dona ceithre cearnóga na gcoirnéal. Don Namhaid: An Rí a sháinniú.

IMIRT CLUICHE: Tá an Rí curtha sa lár an chláir, agus a ochtar fear ar gach taobh dó. Tá an Namhaid curtha sna ceithre codanna na ceithre gcearnóg marcáilte ar na taobhanna an chláir. Tá gach uile aistriú a chuir aon cearnóg amháin ag an am, suas nó síos nó i leataobh (in aon chor go trasnánach).
Tá foireann an Rí céad aistriú aici. Gabhann imreoir licín a chéile imeartha a sáinniú é idir dhá a chuid licíní fhéin (arís, gan dul go trasnánach). Tá baint an licín sáinnithe ón clár. Tá an Rí sáinnithe ach nuair a bhí sé ina thimpeall ar gach ceithre taobh.


HNEFATAFL (a Viking game)
One player has one green counter (the King) and eight blue counters (the King's men). The other player has sixteen red counters (the Enemy).

Object: For the King's force, to move the King on to one of the four corner squares; for the Enemy, to trap the King.

To Play: The King is placed in the centre of the board, surrounded by his eight men. The Enemy are placed on the four lots of four squares marked at the sides of the board. All moves are made one square at a time, up or down or sideways (never diagonally). The King's force has first move. A player captures his opponent's counter by trapping it between two of his own counters (again, not diagonally). The captured counter is removed from the board. The King is captured only when he is surrounded on all four sides.

You're doing great franc!

Quote:
licín glas

This can be Licín ghlas, since Leac is feminine, sometimes -ín doesn't overcome the gender, especially when the underlying word is still a valid word. However Licín glas is fine.

Quote:
ocht licíní ghorma

ocht licíní gorma

also:
ocht licín ghorma

Quote:
sé licíní dhéag dhearga

sé licíní déag dearga

Quote:
dona ceithre cearnóga na gcoirnéal

You have two articles here in the genitive, so do cheithre cearnóga na gcoirnéal. Although I'd be more inclined to say:
do chearnóga na gceithre gcoirnéal or do chearnóga na gceithre gcúinní

This error occurs a few times.

More tomorrow.
