Tips & Tricks
- Look one step ahead rather than three. Beginner mistakes in this genre come from planning an elaborate sequence that the rules do not actually allow.
- Work from the edges inward. Clearing the outside of the board usually opens up more options than attacking the middle, and it keeps your choices flexible.
- Take a moment before your first move. In this kind of game the obvious action is often a trap, and a single wasted move early on can cost you the whole round.
- If you get stuck, stop and re-read the board instead of guessing. The piece you need is almost always one you have been ignoring.
