Overview
========
A traditional strategy game for 2 players that is based upon Alquerque played in the Middle East.

Players take it in turns to move.

A move consists of moving a piece diagonally to an adjacent unoccupied square. If the adjacent square contains an opponents piece, and the square immediately beyond it is vacant, the piece may be captured (and removed from the game) by jumping over it. Capturing is mandatory, and includes multiple jumps. If you manage to advance a piece to the far end of the board then it is kinged. A king can move diagonally forwards or backwards.

The player without pieces remaining, or who cannot move due to being blocked, loses the game.

This is the classic British board and rules set.
