[ The Board ]

The board is composed of various terrain features that affect the movement of the pieces.

Soldier Station (Rectangle): A normal space. Pieces can move on or off these spots and can attack or be captured.

Campsite (Round): A piece in this space is "encamped" and cannot be attacked in this space.

Headquarters (Bottom line, scond from right or left): The Flag is held in one of these two headquarter spaces. The piece in the Headuarter cannot move.

Railroads (Green line): Pieces can move any number of playing spaces along a railroad in a straight line, as long as it is not obstructed by another piece. ENGINEER pieces can move around the railroad corners as well.

Road (White line): Pieces move from one space to another along these roads.

[ Game rules ]

Each player alternates making one move per turn. The goal is to win the game by capturing the opponent’s flag.

When a piece attacks an opposing piece, the piece with the lower rank is removed ("9" being the highest rank and "1" being the lowest).

Any piece on a campsite is safe and cannot be attacked.

The following pieces have special features and abilities:

Engineer – This is the only piece that can move around corners on the railroad. They can turn as many corners as they like. Engineers can also capture landmines without being destroyed.

Bomb – Bombs can capture any other piece but is also destroyed in the process, thus removed from the board. Any piece that attacks a bomb is also destroyed and removed along with the bomb.

Landmine – Any piece that attacks a landmine (except for engineers) is destroyed and removed, but the landmine will not be removed
