Description
Nine men's morris is a strategy board game for two players dating at least to the Roman Empire. The game is also known as nine-man morris, mill, mills, the mill game, merels, merrills, merelles, marelles, morelles, and ninepenny marl in English.
Rules:
- A player who aligns three of his pieces on a board line has a mill and may remove his opponent's piece(s).
- Any player reduces to two pieces and has no option to form new mills and thus loses the game.
- A player can also lose with more than three pieces if his opponent blocks them not to be moved.
