== Description ==

Each player tries to cross the board with their mids, starting in their “home” and ending on a corresponding field in the opponent’s home on the opposite side of the board. Each mid has moving options depending on its size: Smalls can only move 1 space, but larger mids can also jump a fixed distance over one or more mids. A tagging rule avoids stalemate, as it forces the opponent to move one of their mids still at home. The clever game mechanics make the game hot (both players will want to move), and urge each player to cross as fast as possible, at the same time trying to prevent their opponent from doing the same, or at least to slow them down.
