       men can only diagonally move forwards

       (toward the opponet's side).

       2) Men can become kings by reaching the opponet's

       first rank; kings can diagonally	move both forwards

       and backwards.

       3) Pieces can capture opponet's pieces by jumping over them

       also they can capture several pieces at once by doing a

       chain of	jumps.

       4) You have to do a jump	if you can.

       5) A player wins	when the opponet can't do a move e. g.

       all of their pieces are captured.
