Line 47:
On a player's turn, they may do one of the following:
 
* Place a small in any unoccupied space. Optionally, remove two of their own mediums (or one medium and the large) from spaces adjacent to the newly placed small.
* Place a medium in any unoccupied space. Remove two of their own smalls from(or theone board,small orand athe large) andfrom aspaces small,adjacent to placethe anewly mediumplaced in an adjacent spacemedium.
* Place the large in any unoccupied space. Remove two of their own mediums from spaces adjacent to the newly placed large.
* Remove two of their mediums from the board, or a large and a medium, to place a large or a small in an adjacent space
* Move the large one space to any unoccupied adjacent space. Remove one of their own mediums from a space adjacent to the new location.
 
Adjacent may be horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, and always means spaces adjacent to the one the place was newly placed in (or in the case of the large, moved to).
 
=== RemovalPlacement ===
Once a large is on the board it is considered "wild", and counts as a medium or a small for all purposes (both removal and four-in-a-row).
When removing pieces from the board, the two pieces must share at least one adjacent (empty) space; they can, but don't need to be, adjacent themselves. Place the next piece in a space that is adjacent to both of the to-be-removed pieces, then take the removed pieces from the board and return them to your stash. You can only do this if you have a piece of the appropriate size remaining, or if the removal of the pieces from the board gives you a piece of the appropriate size.

If the large is removed from the board in this process it may be replaced in an adjacent space; it may "move" in this fashion. Once it is on the board the large is considered "wild", and counts as a medium or a small for all purposes (both removal and four-in-a-row). The only way to get the large on the board is to remove two mediums.
 
'''Moving the large:''' The large piece may be moved to an adjacent space; effectively, you are "removing" two mediums, one of which is the (wild) large. The only way to initially get the large onto the board is to remove two mediums.
 
If a player does not have any smalls left, they must remove two smalls (or a large and small) to place a medium, or must remove two mediums (or a large and medium) to place a large. If they are unable to do either of these things, they lose.
