PUSH RED BY PLACING WHITE

 

A board made up from 25 hexagons in 5 rows forming a rectangle is empty at the start of the game, 2 sides of the board are marked with a red line for left and right. Each player tries to be the first to connect two opposing sides of the board: If you play with the light pieces you must connect top and bottom of the board and if you play the dark pieces you must connect the left and right side of the board.

When the colors have been assigned you play with the pieces of your opponent. The starting player is the player placing the light pieces to make a connection with the dark pieces. The starting player now puts a first piece on any of the border hexagons. Each player either places one of his opponent’s pieces on an empty border hexagon or places the piece on an occupied border hexagon and pushes all the other pieces in line for one space. A row can only be relocated in a straight line for one hexagon and you must place a piece on a border hexagon to do. The direction in which you must push is given by the new piece.

If a row is full from left to right or top to bottom it cannot be relocated, because you cannot push a piece off the board. But only a row of one color only ensures your win!

Place red and push white so that white pieces are connecting top and bottom of the board and red does not profit from the move sounds far easier than it is, especially on the rather small board. Good spacial imagination can help to visualise how the board will look after the move, but the situation changes drastically with each move. Fast rethinking of the situation is essential!
