About

I am trying to popularise some abstract board games by writing about them. These articles include the rules, but go a little beyond that. Here is what I have right now: Amazons: <a href="https://www.mathematik.hu-berlin.de/~ploog/BSB/LG-Amazons.pdf">text</a> (10 pages, 9 problems); <a href="https://www.littlegolem.net/jsp/forum/topic2.jsp?forum=60&topic=77">LG forum</a>; <a href="https://boardgamegeek.com/article/31473468#31473468">BGG forum</a>. Breakthrough: <a href="https://www.mathematik.hu-berlin.de/~ploog/BSB/LG-Breakthrough.pdf">text</a> (7 pages, 12 problems); Lines of Action: <a href="https://www.mathematik.hu-berlin.de/~ploog/BSB/LOA.pdf">text</a> (10 pages, 8 problems); <a href="https://www.littlegolem.net/jsp/forum/topic2.jsp?forum=130&topic=88">LG forum</a>; <a href="https://boardgamegeek.com/article/31998182#31998182">BGG forum</a>. Slither: <a href="https://www.mathematik.hu-berlin.de/~ploog/BSB/LG-Slither.pdf">text</a> (7 pages, 9 problems); <a href="https://www.littlegolem.net/jsp/forum/topic2.jsp?forum=15&topic=27">LG forum</a>; <a href="https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/2160738/short-article-slither">BGG forum</a>. Symple: <a href="https://www.mathematik.hu-berlin.de/~ploog/BSB/LG-Symple.pdf">text</a> (4 pages, 3 problems). Havannah: <a href="https://www.mathematik.hu-berlin.de/~ploog/BSB/Havannah.pdf">text</a> (10 pages, 10 problems). <a href="https://boardgamegeek.com/article/31473550#31473550">BGG Abstract Games</a> forum thread because not much is going on in the special forums. Feedback is always welcome! If you want to see the manuscripts for some other games, send me a message.
