9 Men’s morris

NINE MEN’S MORRIS GAME – Is the original three in a row game. The object is to try to form “mills” by making a line of three of your men, horizontally or vertically. Two players, each provided with nine counters of a single color, lay pieces alternately upon the points, the object being to get three in a row (a mill) upon any line. On doing so, the player is entitled to remove from the area one adverse counter, but not one that is in a mill. Having placed all the counters, the player continues moving alternately with the same object. The player who captures all but two of the adverse pieces wins.
