     1) The game starts with each player having 12 men;

     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.
