apollo1001Welcome to Veletas! This is an abstract 2-player game where you are attempting to capture the majority of the [red]shooters[/red].1archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment

apollo1001The first player will add just under half the [red]shooters[/red] (3 for a 10x10 board), with the second player later able to add the remainder. *Shooters may not be placed next to each other, even diagonally.*1disc_16

apollo1001In addition to the first batch of [red]shooters[/red], the first player also places their first [blue]stone[/blue]. A [blue]stone[/blue] can be placed on any vacant cell and, once on the board, will never be moved. Whilst [blue]stones[/blue] cannot be moved, they will slowly build up on the board and eventually trap the [red]shooters[/red].1square_4_5

apollo1001Given the first player advantage, the second player now gets to choose whether to accept the first player's [blue]stone[/blue] placement. They may: - Accept. They will then place the remaining [red]shooters[/red], and place their own [blue]stone[/blue]. - Refuse. The players roles will swap (the second player will become the first player, stealing the placed [blue]stone[/blue] for themself)2archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment

apollo1001Here, valecom chose to swap roles. As such AGBC222 has become the second player (and their colour has changed to white). They may now place the remaining 4 [red]shooters[/red] and place their first white [blue]stone[/blue].1archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment

apollo1001Let's place the first white [blue]stone[/blue] on F5.1square_5_4

apollo1001Now the game setup is complete, players will take turns consisting of two steps: 1. (Optionally) Move a [red]shooter[/red] 2. Fire out a [blue]stone[/blue] 1archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment

apollo1001[red]shooters[/red] can be moved any distance, in any direction (including diagonally), provided they are not blocked by another game piece. Once the [red]shooter[/red] has moved, the same rule applies for firing: A [blue]stone[/blue] may be fired from the moved shooter in any direction. It may land on any space in that direction provided it is not blocked by another game piece. 1archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment

apollo1001Let's move the [red]shooter[/red] on F6 diagonally to E7 and cover our tracks by shooting a [blue]stone[/blue] back to F6.2archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment

apollo1001Players continue to alternate taking such 2-part turns: 1. (Optionally*) Move [red]shooter[/red]. 2. Fire [blue]stone[/blue]. This will continue until a [red]shooter[/red] has been surrounded (in all directions) and thus is trapped. *A [blue]stone[/blue] may be fired directly without moving a [red]shooter[/red] if desired.1archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment

apollo1001Here the [red]shooter[/red] on D6 is almost completely surrounded. This would (normally) be a good time to either: - Trap the [red]shooter[/red] - Move the [red]shooter[/red] to safety1disc_12

apollo1001On this occasion the threat was ignored, so we are about to see a [red]shooter[/red] being captured. Once surrounded, a [red]shooter[/red] is captured by whomever has the largest contiguous block of stones orthogonally adjacent to it. Only in the event of a tie, do we consider who made the surrounding move. This player does NOT capture the [red]shooter[/red] and it is claimed by their opponent.1archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment

apollo1001The [red]shooter[/red] on D6 is orthogonally adjacent to two black 'groups' of [blue]stones[/blue], of 4 and 2 [blue]stones[/blue] respectively. Black has the largest orthogonal group, so captures the [red]shooter[/red] (as signified by it's [blue]stone[/blue] being placed on top of the [red]shooter[/red]). *N.B. The white group is diagonally adjacent, but not orthogonal, so is ignored*1square_3_5

apollo1001Once captured, a [red]shooter[/red] is trapped underneath a [blue]stone[/blue] and thus cannot make further moves, nor shoot [blue]stones[/blue]. In case it comes up in your games, the [blue]stone[/blue] placed on the [red]shooter[/red] does NOT join the two black groups. They continue to be considered as separate groups unless they are joined by other [blue]stones[/blue] later in the game.2archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment

apollo1001We have now covered all of the rules. Play will continue until one player captures the majority of the shooters. I hope this tutorial has been useful, and wish you the best of luck playing Veletas!1archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment
