====Jumping====
Monkeys can jump over other monkeys diagonally, landing directly on the other side as in checkers. There are no double- or triple-jumps. The jumped monkey is returned to one of the empty cages on its owner's side of the board. (The player who jumped the monkey gets to decide which cage.) If all of the white spaces in the first two rows of the player's board are occupied, then there are no cages available to housecontain the monkey and it gets to stay where it is after being jumped. The monkey may move out of the cage on its owner's next turn as normal.
 
====Boarding a Ship====
A monkey may board a ship if:
*the ship is orthogonally adjacent, and
*the ship matches the monkey's color, and
*the ship is empty
Simply place the monkey on top of the ship. The monkey is now piloting it.
 
====Dismounting from a Ship====
A monkey may dismount from a ship by hopping down to an orthogonally-adjacent space. The ship stays where it is; it can't move from there unless it has a monkey from its own faction on board.
 
A monkey that is orthogonally adjacent to a ship of its own color may board the ship as a move; stack the monkey on top of the ship piece.
 
(A monkey on a ship may leave the ship as a move: move it to an orthogonally adjacent space. The ship stays where it is; it can't move from there unless it has a monkey from its own faction on board.)

=== Movement,Ship shipsMovement ===
Monkeys can jump one another while on foot. A jumped monkey is returned to one of the cages on its owner's side of the board. (Which cage is determined by the jumper.) If all the cages on that side of the board are occupied, the jumped monkey gets to stay where it is. There are no restrictions on moving into or out of the cages, nor are there any restrictions based on being sent there (i.e. no loss of turn or anything); the monkey is just placed in the cage, and may then move out next turn.
Occupied ships may move in the following ways:
 
*Move one space diagonally, forward or backward
Nothing happens to a ship, or a monkey on board a ship, that is jumped.
*Jump over another ship
*Launch from Earth
 
A ship can't move unless it has a monkey on board of its own color.
=== Movement, ships ===
 
====Launching a Ship====
A ship can't move unless it has a monkey on board. A monkey that is orthogonally adjacent to a ship of its own color may board the ship as a move; stack the monkey on top of the ship piece. Monkeys cannot board ships owned by the other player.
A player may launch one of his or her ships as a move. (Rocket sounds and motion are optional but recommended.) In order for a ship to launch, it must have a monkey of the same color on board, and there must be a monkey of the same color in a space orthogonally adjacent to it. The ship can otherwise be in any legal space. A ship that is launched is removed from the game.:
*one monkey of its color on board (the pilot), and
*one monkey of its color in a space orthogonally adjacent to it, serving as the ground crew.
