In this version of the game the board has changed.
All black pawns start in the middle (circle 1), on the white bits,
all white pawns start in circle 2, on the black bits. The other black
chess pieces start in circle 3, and the other white pieces in circle
4.
The aim
of the game is to move them all successfully from the middle
to the outer circle of the board.
It's no longer about getting the control of the king of the other
side and crippling the opposition, it is about moving to the edge
of the board and somehow negotiating play so that all pieces end
up in the outer circle.
- In the outer circle, a stage is over
when all pieces have a piece of a different kind and a different
colour standing next to them.
- In the first 4 circles, only one piece
per section eighth is allowed.
- In circle 5, two pieces are allowed;
in circle 6, three pieces; circles 7 and 8, four pieces.
The pieces move according to their original
attributes (e.g. pawns one or two moves forward etc). No pieces
are allowed to be removed from the board. Any number of people can
play, from as few as one (solitaire), to as many as can take a turn
at moving a piece to the edge.
