Twelve Janggi

Two players play on a 3×4 board. Red moves first, then Blue.

Pieces Each side starts with four. From your side, your back row holds the elephant (相), king (王), and general (將) from left to right, with a soldier (子) in front of the king. The small triangles on the edge of each tile show the directions it can move. - King (王): one square in any of the 8 directions - General (將): one square forward, back, left, or right - Elephant (相): one square diagonally - Soldier (子): one square forward - Lord (侯): a soldier that reaches the opponent's camp becomes a lord. One square in any direction except the two diagonals backward Every piece moves only one square.

Moving Click a piece, then the square to move it to. Moving onto an opponent's piece captures it.

Camps Your back row, painted in your color, is your camp.

Captured pieces A captured piece joins your side and goes to your hand, the gray row below the board. A captured lord comes back as a soldier. A number shows when you hold two or more of a kind. On your turn, instead of moving, you may click a piece in your hand and then an empty square to drop it there. You cannot drop in your opponent's camp. A dropped soldier becomes a lord when it later reaches the opponent's camp.

How to win - Capture the opponent's king. Nothing stops a king from stepping into attack, so watch out. - Move your king into the opponent's camp. If your opponent does not capture it on their very next turn, you win. - Your opponent has no legal move. The game is a draw if it does not end within 300 moves.
