Spoke to Bob Abbott. He told me of two more games by Arthur Ambertston [Arthur Amberstone].

3's, played on plain black board with 9 red and nine gold toothpicks. Object to get 3 configurations with 3 touching ends such as

                                     /
                                   /
                        ---------
                                    \
                                      \

Piece between two enemy is taken off but player to whom it belongs can put it back down again.

                                /  o   /

This is just a very rough idea.


GO variation. Play with 19 men each. In a turn can either place a man or move a man already placed any distance orthogonally. Pcs. captured can be used by the capturer.
