Canadian 12x12

• Board and start. Canadian draughts is played on the 72 dark squares of a 12x12 board. Each player starts with 30 men on the 5 nearest rows; White moves first.

• Movement. A man moves one square diagonally forward and captures in both directions. A king moves and captures any distance along an open diagonal; after a capture it may land on any empty square beyond the captured piece.

• Capture. Capturing is mandatory. When more than one capture sequence exists, the sequence that captures the greatest number of opposing pieces must be chosen. Captured pieces remain on the board until the whole sequence ends, so the same opposing piece cannot be captured twice. If a capture is missed, the server simply will not accept such a move.

• Promotion and result. A man that reaches the last row during a capture remains a man until the sequence ends. You win by taking all opposing pieces or leaving the opponent with no move.

• Draw. Canadian draughts has no draw rules of its own, so VOG applies the international draughts rules:

  • the same position has occurred three times;
  • 25 moves by each side with kings only, without captures or man moves;
  • three pieces, at least one of them a king, against a lone king: at most 16 moves by each side from the moment that balance arose (a capture does not reset the count);
  • two kings, a king and a man, or one king against a lone king: 5 moves by each side.

  If the last move within the limit leaves the opponent without a move, it is a win, not a draw. The draw is recorded automatically.
