Either in one of three suggested starting formations, or (advanced) in secret.Pawns are either moved one space (diagonally as well), or can repeatedly jump over one unit. Jumped enemy units are removed. Once the lines break open, a single move can create havoc among the opponent!The goal is to occupy a specified point (the enemy's camp) behind his lines. - BoardGameGeek
