Pennsic gaming

For the past 5 years or so I've been teaching some combination of the following classes at Pennsic:
Introduction to the Game of Go, Introduction to the Game of Tarot, Tafl Games - Fitchneal & Tablut, and Losing Loadum
This year I need to do something new. I'll teach Losing Loadum again, but not the other three. The only other class I have prepared is an introduction to period games which goes over a brief time line and teaches Alquerques, Nine-Man-Morris, and Fox and Geese. Depending on what else gets submitted, I may teach some or all of those.
I'd like to try reconstructing something again, even if it means working on a new reconstruction of something that is already out there. I've got a few ideas in mind (four player backgammon from Alphonso's book, another card game from Francis Willughby’s book), but need to sit down and see if any of them are really doable. Another option would be to get permission to teach someone else game class (like I've done in the past with
jducoeur's Astronomical Tables or Laugh and Lie Down).
Any suggestions or requests out there?
