Ihex

Ihex is a two-player game played on a regular hexagonal board, initially empty. The two players, Red and Blue, take turns placing stones of their own color on the board, at least one stone per turn. If you have no placements available, your turn is skipped. Here, "hexagon" will refer to both regular (equal sides) and irregular (unequal sides) filled hexagons, comprised of stones of either or both colors. Each side of a hexagon has a length of at least 2. You win by making a placement which captures all of the enemy stones on the board. Capturing If your placed stone forms a single largest hexagon with more friendly stones than enemy stones, remove the enemy stones from the hexagon. If your placed stone would form a single largest hexagon with more enemy stones than friendly stones, you are not allowed to make that placement. If your placement would form two or more equally large largest hexagons... If none of the hexagons have a majority of enemy stones, you can make the placement. If you do, you must capture all of the enemy stones in all of the hexagons you form that have a majority of friendly stones. If at least one of the hexagons has a majority of enemy stones... If at least one of the hexagons has a majority of friendly stones, you can make the placement, but without capturing. If none of the other hexagons has a majority of friendly stones, you can’t make the placement. After capturing enemy stones, and while it is still your turn, you must continue to add stones until you make a non-capturing placement, concluding your turn. Placements that don’t form hexagons must form adjacencies with at least as many enemy stones as friendly stones.
