How to play

Blue moves first. Pick a piece to see where it can go. Pieces move one square diagonally forward, and you must jump an enemy piece whenever you can, carrying on if you can jump again. A piece that reaches the far side becomes a king and can move backwards too. Win by capturing every enemy piece or leaving your friend with no move. You can offer a draw, and the game is drawn after 40 moves each with no capture or man moving.
