Beschreibung
This game resembles the political landscape and the struggle for power.
The game is played on a pyramid of 561 hexagons, or circles arranged hexagonally.
The pyramid has 33 hexagons/circles at the base, and 33 ranks/files to the top.
Each player has 32 checker pieces, black or white.
The pieces are placed in stacks of two at the base of the pyramid. One player has his pieces on the left side, and the other on the right side.
An empty hexagon should separate the pieces of both players in the middle of the first rank.
The goal is to reach the top of the pyramid. The first player to place one of his pieces at the top wins the game.
Players use two dice and take turns rolling the dice and moving pieces according to the numbers on the roll.
Players are not allowed to move the same checker piece more than once per turn. This means that, rolling two dice means that two pieces have to be moved. Rolling a double means that four pieces have to be moved.
Pieces get captured by landing on another piece of opposite colour.
Captured pieces are put back on the starting rank on a cell chosen by the owner on his own half of the board.
Players are allowed to place two pieces, but not more, on the same cell.
Two pieces on the same cell makes them uncapturable.
This game can also be played as an "election game" with checker pieces becoming "candidates", each checker piece having a number, or letter, representing a certain candidate. The two colours can represent the two sides of the political landscape.
If there are fewer "Candidates" than the checker pieces, a candidate can be represented by multiple numbers. Of course, the numbers will have to remain face down until the end of the game.
This game is a great way to get rid of corruption and endless scandals in the political world.
