Wu Lu
Another game that I couldn't find any digital info. Fred Horn sent me the next information:
The rules in English:
- WU LU is played with six pawns for each player.
- These six 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 pawns to an adjacent free point in any direction, but jumping is not allowed.
- Players try to capture an opponents’ pawn by encircling with three or four 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 three 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.
