Fetaix

Fetaix is a two-player abstract strategy board game from Morocco.

The only difference is that pieces cannot move backwards until they are promoted to Mullah which is the equivalent of King in draughts.

Furthermore, Mullahs can move any number of vacant points on the board, and capture enemy pieces from any distance similar to the Kings in International draughts.

Each player's pieces are set up in the first two ranks (two rows) of their side, and also on the two right-most points of the third rank (center row of the board).

Mullahs can also move any number of vacant points in a straight line.

The non-Mullah piece leaps over the adjacent enemy piece in a straight line following the pattern on the board, and landing on a vacant point on the other side.

It is uncertain whether a piece can be promoted to Mullah when it reaches the last rank as one of its intermediary steps of a capturing sequence.
