Equipment:
A Grid of Squares
Large and small counters (blue and red)
Number of players:
2
The Set-up:
Agree on the size of Grid to use. Decide on the initial arrangement of Large Counters on the Grid. For example:
The Counters represent skiers and the Grid represents a ski-slope.
A Move:
Blue starts. Blue's skiers move East. Red's skiers move West.
A move consists of doing one of the following:
(1) Move one of your skiers at least one square in your allowed direction. This may mean your skier moves off the ski-slope. You cannot pass or land on another skier.
(2) Jump over one of your opponent's skiers from the square immediately above him to the empty square immediately below him.
A skier that is jumped over is not allowed to subsequently jump. This is indicated by replacing the large counter by a small counter. For example:
How to Win:
If your opponent has no valid move then you win. So you must not be the first to remove all your skiers from the ski-slope!
