- An unpinned stone can only move diagonally forward towards the opposite player, for any number of squares until it encounters another stone, at which point it may jump an unpinned opponent or a pinned ally and then proceed no further.
- An unpinned stone can also jump to the immediate left or right over an unpinned opponent or a pinned ally.
- A pinned stone cannot be moved.
The winner:
