Morabaraba | Birch Ply Wood | Black Print
Crafted from premium 4mm birch plywood. The sleek black print on natural wood gives it a modern yet timeless look, perfect for any game enthusiast. Durable, lightweight, and eco-friendly, this board combines tradition with style, making it a beautiful addition to your game collection or decor.
Board Specifications:
- Dimensions: 30.5 x 30.5cm
- Board Height: 4mm
- Diameter of pieces: 2.5cm
- Each player has nine pieces, known as 'cows'; in two different colours or designs.
- Each player in turn places a cow on an empty circle on the board.
- The aim is to create a ‘mill’: a row of three cows on any line drawn on the
board. - If a player forms a mill, he or she may remove one of the opponent’s cows. The cow is removed from the board and not placed again. A cow in a mill may not be taken unless all of the opponent’s cows are in mills, in which case any cow may be taken. Even if a move creates more than one mill, only one cow can be taken in a
single move. - After all the cows have been placed, each turn consists of moving a cow
to an empty adjacent circle. - As before, completing a mill allows a player to take one of the
opponent’s cows. Again, this must be a cow which is not in a mill, unless
all of the opponent’s cows are in mills. - Players are allowed to break their own mills.
- When a player has only three cows remaining, desperate measures are
called for. This player’s cows are allowed to ‘fly’ to any empty circle, not
just adjacent ones. If one player has three cows and the other player has more than three cows, only the player with three cows is allowed to fly. - You win if your opponent cannot move or when your opponent has just two cows.
- If either player has only three cows and neither player takes a cow within ten moves, the game is drawn.
- If one person cheats, then the other one wins by default.
