How to play & rule trustrules, draw handling, privacy
THE GOALCapture or block every opponent piece

Black moves first. Men move one dark square diagonally forward. Kings move diagonally in both directions.

MANDATORY CAPTUREA jump must be taken

If any capture is available, quiet moves are disabled. A piece that can keep jumping must continue the same turn.

PROMOTIONReach the back row to become a king

Under American rules, a man that reaches the king row during a jump ends its turn and moves as a king next turn.

DRAW RULESRepetition + king-only quiet limit

Threefold repeated positions and 40 moves per player with only quiet king moves end the game as a draw.
