FLAT-EARTH DOZER-HEX

Like Hex, but lines of friendly stones may push, abalone-wise, smaller lines of adversary stones by exactly their length difference.

If any stones block the full length of a push, the push stops there. A line may push its own length into empty space. Stones pushed off the edge disappear from the game. No friendly stones may be pushed.  Swap option exists.

This game presents an Abalano-like mutator which seems to provide new games. Notice however that this mutator does not use the Abalone rule, since phalanxes can shift more than one cell (based on the difference between the pushed and pushing phalanx).
