- Ambush
-
- Ambush, (also known as Rithmomachia) is an
- ancient board game based the Mathematics
- of Pythagoras. It was once as popular as
- chess but is little known today.
-
- The object is to be the first to reach over
- a certain number of points, (total value of
- opponents captured pieces), or to capture a
- certain number of pieces.
-
- The pieces may move in a straight line in any
- direction. You cannot jump a piece. The round
- pieces move one square at a time, triangles
- three and the squares four. The pyramid is
- really a stack made up of other pieces and can
- move like any of its component pieces. Just
- click the left mouse button on a pyramid to
- cycle through its' components.
