How to play
- 1
Hide your army
Place your 21 pieces on your first three rows. Your opponent only sees blank tiles.
- 2
Move and challenge
Move one square forward, back or sideways. Moving onto an enemy piece is a challenge: the arbiter removes the lower rank (both if equal) and reveals nothing else.
- 3
Take the flag
Capture the enemy flag, or move your flag to the far row. If an enemy piece is next to it there, it must survive one more turn.
