Each tile may be occupied by at MOST one piece at a time A piece may move one tile diagonally towards the other players side o Once other side is reached the piece gets promoted to a "king" King pieces may move one tile diagonally in ANY direction (forward or back) A player's piece may "jump" an opponent's piece if there is an open slot directly on the other side of the opponent's piece Place the player's piece on the other side of the opponent's piece and remove the opponent's piece from play If there is a jump the jumping player takes another turn* o o If there is the ability to make a jump the player MUST take that jump* » If a player jumps an opponent's piece they take an additional turn Game ends when any player loses all their pieces*Explanation / Answer
