one game. The difference from the Kontrell version is that the
pcs. had the player's color on one side and were neutral on the
other. Each player made 10 moves on a turn (or luck version, the
number on two dice). If an enemy piece is surrounded on 4 sides
it is turned over to the neutral side. (What happens when 3 or
4 play?) A piece that a player has brought into <s>its</s> position a-
cross the board can be brought out again to help in a capture.
(can captures be made along an edge of the board?) Win by getting
6 pieces across, or by reducing opponent to less than 6 pieces.
Kontrell obviously eliminated the pieces of two different colors for
economy, but they could have molded a cross on one side to indicate
a captured piece. He said he'd send me his rules - also offered
to send me extra neutral pieces to play his rules. I thanked
him but said that I'd mark one side of the pcs. I have.
<br>He gave me his address: <u>Vincent Grissino</u> [address]
