ABSTRACT:
A game board includes six longitudinal tracks and thirty-six discs of two different colors arranged six in each track. There are eighteen discs of each color, so that three of each color are in each track with the colors alternating. The two colors alternate between adjacent tracks as well as within each track, with the first and last disc in each adjacent track having different colors. Two players face each other at opposite ends of the board and choose a color. Moves are made by the roll of a die which determines the number of discs each person must move across a center line. Each player moves the selected color disc, with the other color disc in its path included in the number. Moves can be split between different tracks and can go back and forth across the center line. The number on the die must be completed in two moves. The object of the game is to establish six of the selected color discs at the ends of the six rows closest to the center line. The first to obtain that arrangement is the winner. A great deal of thought and skill is required to achieve the desired result.
