How it plays
You step one square diagonally forward, and capture by jumping an enemy piece — forward too. The moment a capture exists it is compulsory, but you choose which one; a multiple capture, once started, is played to its end, square by square, the board offering only what the rules allow. A man that reaches the far row is crowned, and its move ends there; a king steps and captures one square at a time, forward or back. Automatic draw on threefold repetition, and after 40 moves each without a capture or a man moving.
