Object: Move your pieces to the opponent's starting squares. Note that Red 4 must end up at the starting square of Black 4 and so on! The game is restricted to the black squares. There are moves and jumps. However, there are no captures. Default variant: | Moves may be forward or backward, jumps only forwards. Jumps over an enemy piece are forced. You can only make one jump at a time. | Variant 2: | Backwards jumps are permitted, but only forwards jumps over enemies are forced. | Variant 3: | Like default variant, but you may not jump over your own piece. This is the original game. | Variant 4: | Like variant 2, but you may not jump over your own piece. | You are not alowed to stalemate your opponent. (If a player is stalemated he wins). 'Salta' or 'Sun, Moon and Stars' was invented in about 1900 by Karl Buettgenbach. For more freeware as well as real puzzles and games see my home page http://karl.kiwi.gen.nz. |
