Description
A game by Lewis Carroll published in 1893, but invented 1878 with available versions from 1880 and 1881, too.
This Game requires a chess or draughts board, 5 men of one color and 5 of another (later 8 of each colour) - chess-pawns, draughts, or counters - and 9 pieces of card, cut to the size of a square, to serve as markers.
Carroll himself suggests to take a coin, place it on a square of the board and describe this and the surrounding 8 together as the "rendezvous", where the players try to get their men in.
