Description - Halma
The name `Halma` comes from the ancient Greek word for `leap`. This is what you seek to do as the fastest way to cross the board. You can also step a square in any direction as a complete move. This is sometimes necessary if your piece has no neighbour to leap over. The board is 16 by 16 squares. Each player has 13 pieces. No pieces are lost or removed.A player may jump his piece over a neighbouring piece of any color and in any direction that is directly across the neighbour. These leaps can chain together into one long move that can sometimes take a piece all the way across the board.
