The board contains 11 ranks and 9 files. Each side have 10 pieces, numbered from 0 to 9. The board initial layout is set as the picture below.<br /><br />

<br /><br /> <strong>Movement:</strong> Each piece (with the exception of 0 piece) can move in any direction (vertically, horizontally, or diagonally - forward or backward),
the max number of squares a piece can move depends on the number of the piece. For example, the piece with number 2 can move 1 or 2 empty squares,
while the piece with number 9 can move from 1 to 9 empty squares...

<br /><br /> <strong>Capture:</strong> to capture the opponent's piece, player must have 2 pieces one next to another. Then use the numbers of the 2 pieces to make calculations.
Allowed calculations are + (addition), - (subtraction), x (multiplication), : (division), and division remainder.
Any result of the calculations can be used to apply to the capture. If a result contain 2 numbers then remove the tens number (for example 8 x 7 = 56 => use 6).
Use a suitable result to make the capture by taking the piece behind to capture opponent's piece.
<br /><br />

For example, player have an 8 piece and 5 piece next to each other vertically. Calculation results from these 2 pieces are:<br /><br />

8 + 5 = 13 (take 3)<br />
8 - 5 = 3<br />
8 x 5 = 40 (take 0 - which is useless anyway)<br />
8 : 5 = 1 with 3 as remainder (take both 1 and 3)
<br /><br />

Player can then use the 8 piece (the piece behind) to capture an opponent piece which is 1 or 3 squares away from the 5 piece (the piece on front),
in same the direction that 8 -> 5 is.<br /><br />


The image below show how the 1 piece and 2 piece standing next to each other can capture opponent pieces. If an opponent piece is on one of those X squares,
player can capture it. The calculations that the capture is based on are: 1 + 2 = 3, 1 x 2 = 2, 1 : 2 = 0 with 1 as remainder.

The 0 piece (the one with zero number) is like the King in International chess. When it is captured, player loses the game.
<br /><br />

Besides capturing 0 piece, players can agree on a certain point for ending a match (if the 0 piece is not captured before that point is reached).
The point that one player gains is calculated by summing the numbers of the opponent's pieces that have been captured.
<br /><br />


For example, if the players agree to set the match's ending point to 10. Then when a player captures the 5 and 6 piece,
he wins the game (5 + 6 = 11 which is greater than 10). Or if a player captures the 0 piece then he also wins.
