Wu Lu
Another game that I couldn't find any digital info. Fred Horn sent me the next information:
And the rules in English:
- WU LU is played with 6 Pawns for each Player.
- These 6 Pawns are placed in front of the Player, sitting left and right, on the Board upon the six indicated points at their side.
- Alternately each Player moves in his Turn one of his Pawn to an adjacent free point in any direction, but jumping is not allowed.
- Players try to capture an Opponents’ Pawn by encircling with 3 or 4 own Pawns, so this Opponents’ Pawn cannot move any more. This Pawn is captured; out of the Game and removed from the Board.
- A Player with only 3 Pawns left on the Board loses the Game.
====================================
Be careful! When trying to capture one can be
taken by surprise.
===
The most valuable points are those on the
second line.
