Board and pawn game for two players - has board divided into diamond and triangle shaped edge areas with pawns of matching forms

摘要

For two players, the game is played with pawns on a square board, the board being divided into three sets of squares delineated by differential square configuration. The range of square types is extended to five by differential colouring in two sets, and the pawns also have three different configurations to match the prim. square shapes. Eighty-five diamond shaped squares may be provided of which eight have a different colour, together with thirty triangular squares on the edges. Sixteen of the triangular squares may also have a different colour; the pawns numbering sixteen triangular of which two are specially marked, together with eight of the diamond shape. One step alternating movements of small pawns promote conflicts resulting in the introduction of large pawns at the sides, the latter moving sideways to attain central squares.
