ABSTRACT:
A checkers type board game is provided where movement of playing pieces is determined by the role of the dice. The board is similar to a checkers board, but with 10 longitudinal rows and eight latitudinal rows, for a total of eighty squares. Each player initially places twelve pieces on the board, eight pieces occupying a back row and four pieces centered in the second row. When a player rolls the dice, he or she may move a playing piece diagonally in any direction equal to the number indicated by one or both of the dice. When a player's piece lands on an opposing player's piece, that piece is captured by the player. Once a player's piece has reached the far opposing row, it may not be moved or attacked. Play ends when a player has advanced eight pieces, or remaining pieces, to the opposing row from their starting position. The winner is determined by which player has captured the largest number of pieces.
