1. Introduction

Abalone is a simple board strategy game that is played by two players. There are red and yellow pieces for each player. Beginning from a start position where each player has 14 pieces, moves are drawn till one player has pushed 6 pieces of his opponent out of the board.

The original program was developed in 1993 for DOS and pure Xlib. For KDE there was a major rewrite.

Notice: The game idea is not by me. It is a real board game vendored by a German game producing firm (I believe).
