Rules - Each turn, the player to move has to move one of his pieces, in a straight line, exactly as many squares as there are pieces of either colour anywhere along the line of movement. (These are the Lines of Action).
- You may jump over your own pieces.
- You may not jump over your opponent's pieces, but you can capture them by landing on them.
- The object of the game is to turn your pieces into one connected unit. The connections within the group may be either orthogonal or diagonal.
- If one player is reduced by captures to a single piece, that is a win for this player.
- If a move simultaneously creates a single connected unit for both the player moving and the opponent, the player moving wins.
- If a player cannot move, this player loses
- If a position with the same player to move occurs for the second time, the game is drawn.
