• Board is empty at the beginning of play and each player has 7 men which they take turns in placing on the board.
• After all 7 men are played to the board pieces are moved to an open adjacent space or may jump an adjacent opponent’s piece to an open spot.
• Jumped pieces are removed and continuous jumps are allowed.
• Jumping is not mandatory.
• Pillars are formed only on the squares.
• When a pillar is formed an opponent’s piece is removed from the board.
• Men in pillars are protected from removal unless there is no one else to remove.
• Pillars may not be reformed without an intervening move or another pillar being formed.
• Game is won by capturing all of opponent’s pieces or inhibiting opponent’s ability to move.
