X Men‘s Morris rules apply
To Win
Leave your opponent with less than 3 men, or without any possibility to play his turn.
To Play
Each time you align 3 of your men, you can remove one of your opponent's men from the game.
X represents the number of pieces (=men) you start with.
There are two phases in the game:
- placing the men: at each turn you put one men on an available position (=all intersections and corners)
- moving men: this phase starts when all the men are on the board. At your turn move one men from its position to an adjacent available position.
Fly Variants
I you are playing one of the "fly" variants, you can move a men to any available position (not only adjacent ones) when you are reduced to 3 men.
