Herfor társasjáték

Angol leírás

Introduction:Herfor (from Old Norse: Herfǫr, meaning "war expedition") is a drawless game for two players: Black and White. It is played on the intersections (points) of an initially empty hexagonal board with triangles. It can be played on a 7-sized board for long games or on a 5-sized board for short games. Each player has access to a single set of 127 identical stones of two colors, one color on the front and another color on the back.

Definitions:– A phalanx is a set of stones of the same color connected in a straight line.
– A new phalanx is a phalanx to which an additional stone has been added adjacent to it, otherwise it is an old phalanx.
– An invading phalanx is a phalanx that is located in the middle of enemy phalanxes, all arranged in a straight line.
– Two invaded phalanxes are two phalanxes that are on the sides of a new enemy phalanx, all arranged in a straight line.
– To flip is replacing a stone with a stone of the opposite color.

Turns:Black plays first, then turns alternate. On your turn, take these actions in the following order:

1. Place a stone of your color on an empty point not adjacent to enemy phalanxes, unless you form a friendly invading phalanx.
2. Flip the stones of invaded enemy phalanxes on both sides of the new invading phalanxes by an equal amount to the smallest number of stones among the invaded enemy phalanxes on that same straight line.

End of the game:The game ends when the board is full. The player with the highest number of stones of their color on the board wins.

To ensure fairness, before the game starts, the first player places a black stone on an empty point and the second player chooses a side. This balancing method is called the pie rule.
