CRUNCHING QUAX
23* moves
A line of stones may move in its own direction any number of spaces
up to its own length. Any friendly stones encountered during
the move halt the movement. Any same-direction line of opponent
stones encountered have the nearest stones killed by replacement,
the maximum number to be killed being the difference of the two
lengths, with the move stopping only after a maximum such kill
or before the first blank after any kill.
: A turn consists of
: EITHER the placement of three NON-LINEAR stones on empty cells,
: OR of one move of the above type, followed by a placement.
Whoever first makes a path joining three non-adjacent sides, wins.

Hi, that sounds interesting, but it seems to me these rules allow cycles to appear (if I understood correctly): e.g., with a line of two black stones touching a line of three white stones at angle 60°, Black can move their line by one cell, killing the white stone in front, then drop a black stone where the first stone of line was lying before moving; after what White can perform a similar move and go back to the initial board! -- Eob
