Had this game my cousin had it first then I had it then I did.
This is going back a good 15 years BTW.
Basically it consited of browny beige coloured bricks for one side and grey bricks for the other, the two players would each build a "castle" from the bricks, cant remember if there was something you had to hide inside.
Each player also had a collection of blue disks for the one side and red for the other.
The blue disks had knights on them or something and the red had vikings on.
Each side had some form of catapult and other weapons IIRC, the disks would be loaded into them and fired at the oppositions castle. The aim was to knock down the castle, but really cant remember any more than that

what was the aim again? was it to knock over a certain piece? like a king? the disks that you fired had different faces on too like some were more important than others
