📖 About This Game
Dipole, played with a Checkers set, begins with two stacks of checkers: a stack of 12 white checkers in White's nearest row, and likewise for Black. A stack, or a portion of a stack, is moved a distance equal to the number of checkers in the moved stack. So a three-stack, for example, can be moved a distance of three squares. Non-capturing moves must be made forward or diagonally forward. Capturing moves can be made in any of eight directions. A stack can capture only equal size or smaller stacks.
To win, all of your opponent's checkers must be removed from the board.
Draws cannot occur in Dipole.
