How to Play!

Game Paraphernalia – 

1 game board, 2 sets of 10 counters (total 20)

Game Setup –

• Each player gets 10 counters of the same colour. Counters to be placed only on intersections of lines. During a turn, only one counter has to be placed.
• After placing both the armies game board will look like fig 1.

Rules to play – 

• During a turn, only one counter has to move to an adjacent point which is connected to its current point by line. It can move in any direction (fig 2)
• If the adjacent point is not connected to its present point by a line, then it cannot be moved there. (fig 2)
• If a counter encounters an opponent counter which has an empty point behind it, then the counter jumps over to the empty-point and captures the opponent counter. (fig 3)
• Counter can jump over multiple opponents during its turn provided it always lands on an empty-point before jumping over the next opponent (fig 4). This way, sometimes one single counter can capture all the counters of the opponent.
• A counter cannot jump over an opponent if –
  1. There is no empty point behind the opponent’s (fig 5)
  2. No Straight line is connecting its point with opponent’s (fig 6)
• A counter cannot jump over an empty point at anytime to capture an opponent’s counter (fig 7)
• A counter cannot change its direction while capturing (fig 8) however after capturing, it can change its direction to capture another counter (fig 4)
• A captured counter is permanently out of the game.
