Movements
2 players take turns to move their pieces.Either player can start the game.
The initial player must move a soldier piece in her/his first turn.
Pieces can move all 8 directions.
They must be moved straight to the edge of the board, unless they have other pieces in their way, in which case, they stop just before the pieces.
No change of directions in one movement.
No jumping over or capturing other pieces.
Soldier pieces cannot stay at the “King’s Valley” (Passing the square is allowed).
