<p>In all Draughts variants, the following rules apply:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Players take turn by moving one piece</li>
	<li>Pieces can move to an adjacent empty position</li>
	<li>An adjacent opponent piece can be captured by jumping over it (which implies the next position is available)

</ul>

	</li>
	<li>Simple pieces move forward, straight or in diagonal, or on the side</li>
	<li>Promoted pieces, called kings, can move any number of free positions, on rows, columns or in diagonal.</li>
	<li>After a capture, a king must stop just after the captured piece</li>
	<li>White starts</li>
	<li>Capture is compulsory</li>
	<li>Captured pieces are removed immediately after the capture</li>
	<li>If a player must choose between several capture sequences, he must choose the one that captures the most opponent pieces</li>
	<li>If a piece reaches the last line during a capture sequence, it is not promoted, unless the capture finishes on the last line</li>
	<li>A player who cannot play any move loses the game</li>
</ul>
