Saba
Saba is a two player abstract strategy game that has a basis in the 7 men’s Morris game. The board consists of two squares that are bisected and the bisecting lines cross each other at the center of the board (center star). The diagonals of the squares are also continual crossing at the center of the board forming a total of 8 paths.
Goal: Remove 5 of opponent’s pieces by constructing 3 man nguzos (pillars).
• 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.
• 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 be reformed in two moves.
• Game is won by capturing 5 of opponent’s pieces or inhibiting opponent’s ability to move.
