ABSTRACT:
A board game in which two opposing sets of playing pieces are moved one at a time according to specific rules on a square board having 100 square playing spaces in alternating turns of play. Each set of playing pieces includes twenty playing pieces which are placed on the game board in an initial array, and a Home Stone playing piece which is placed upon the board at a later stage of play. The playing pieces are divided into ten different types, each type having different capabilities for movement or capture of opposing playing pieces. Each of the pieces initially arrayed upon the game board is capable of capturing any piece belonging to the opposing set, but the Home Stone playing piece of each set, which is placed upon the game board at a later stage of the game, is incapable of capturing opposing pieces. Captured pieces are removed from the game board, and the object of the game is to capture the Home Stone playing piece of the opposing set.
