Trap the Cap Board Layout and Labelling
|
The board |
Given the rules and board layout
(right), we can start to label the pieces and places.
- The six home bases are labelled 'A' .. 'F'.
- The six playing pieces for each player each have their own names:
A1.. A6 for player A, B1..B6 for player B, and so on.
- The locations on the board are given in terms of the nearest home base.
- The player's home base is given the label 'A' for player A, and so
on.
- Places around the rim are counted clockwise from the home base,
given labels 'A1', 'A2' ... 'A6'.
- Places on the spokes are labelled, from the outside in, 'AC1',
'AC2' ... 'AC5'
- The central space is, simultaneously, 'AC6', 'BC6', 'CC6'...
