Quick steps to get started
Moves are only allowed on dark squares, so pieces always move diagonally. Single pieces are always restricted to moving forward (towards the opponent).
Capture pieces by jumping.
A piece that makes a capture (jump) jumps over one of the opponent's pieces and lands in a straight diagonal line on the other side. Only one piece can be captured in one jump; however, multiple jumps are allowed in one move.
Jumps (or captures) are mandatory.
If a player can make a capture, the jump must be made.
When a piece reaches the furthest row from the player who controls it, it becomes a king and can move either forward or backward.
