[DIAGRAM OF A GAME BOARD SHOWING MULTIPLE PATHS MEANDERING AROUND 12 "HIDING PLACES" (DEPICTED AS U SHAPE) WHICH ARE LABELED AS BEING 3 DIMENSIONAL. STARS ARE DEPICTED ON THE PATHS NEXT TO THE HIDING PLACES. A BORDERLINE IS MARKED ACROSS THE CENTER OF THE BOARD. - THIS DIAGRAM IS DESCRIBED AS A "ROUGH IDEA OF THE BOARD"]

Each playe[r] has 8 pcs.

[DIAGRAM SHOWING 8 CIRCLES (PIECES). 2 LABELED WITH 1 BAR, 3 LABELED WITH 2 BARS. 3 LABELED WITH 3 BARS IN A TRIANGLE SHAPE]

At beginning a screen is placed on the borderline & each player places his 8 pcs in the 6 hiding places. As many as desired can be placed in due hiding place & not all need be used. Choose for first player. He starts by removing one pc. & starting at the star next to the hiding place, move as many spaces as there are bars on the piece. (i.e. 1-2-or 3). Can move in any direction but cannot reverse on one move. After a pc. is out a player may move it or move another out. When a player can land a piece by even count on an opponent's pc. that pc. is captured and out of the game. When a player lands a pc. on an opponent's starred space that player, if he has a piece hidden in that hiding place, must bring it out. If it is a one it captures.
