Villawar társasjáték

Angol leírás

Introduction:Villawar or Villagers and Warriors is a two-player strategy game: Black and White. It is played on the squares (cells) of a checkered board with an initial setup. The default size is 8 cells per side, but boards of 6 or 10 are also valid. Each player has 16 double-sided pieces: one side represents a villager (unmarked), and the other a warrior (marked).

Setup:Each player places 8 villagers in the first and second rows from their perspective; the warriors are not on the board at the start.

Definitions:
A phalanx is a set of pieces of the same color and type connected in a straight line, either orthogonally or diagonally. A single piece is also considered a phalanx.
To jump is to move a piece in a straight line, either orthogonally or diagonally, by crossing exactly one friendly phalanx and landing on an empty cell or an enemy piece, with the possibility of having cells before or after the jumped phalanx.

Turns:White plays first, and then turns alternate. On your turn, move one of your pieces by jumping, according to the following conditions for each type of piece:

Villager:
Jumps over a phalanx of friendly villagers to convert all the villagers in the jumped phalanx into friendly warriors.
Jumps over a phalanx of friendly warriors to remove all the warriors in the jumped phalanx from the board.
Villagers can only land on empty cells.

Warrior:
Jumps over a phalanx of friendly warriors and captures an enemy piece upon landing, replacing it.
Warriors cannot jump if there is no enemy piece in the landing cell.

If you cannot make a move, pass your turn, otherwise passing is not allowed.

End of the game:The game ends when both players pass on consecutive turns. The player with the farthest villager from their starting row wins (considering each player's starting row as their first row). If both have villagers in the same row, the player with more villagers in that row wins; in case of a tie, the previous rows are compared. If there is still a tie after evaluating all villagers, the same criteria are applied to the warriors.
