Requirements:
. A family of 4 Tigers (bagh) and a herd of 20 Goats (bakhri)
. The game board is a 25-point grid
Positions....
Baghchal is a challenge between predator and prey:
The Tigers assume their positions, one prowling on each corner of the board.
One Goat appears in the distance, cautiously occupying a vacant space on the
board. Following the placement of each Goat, a Tiger stalks along the line of
movement.
Note: All twenty Goats must first appear before any may move from its position.
The
objective is SURVIVAL!
To satisfy their hunger, the Tigers must "eat" a total of five Goats. Leaping
over a Goat, the Tiger devours its prey. (A variation to the game may be played
where the Tigers eat all the Goats.)
To protect themselves, Goats throng together, surrounding the Tigers and
limiting their movement.
Tigers win when five Goats are "eaten." Goats win when all Tigers are
surrounded, unable to leap over and eat the Goats or make regular movements.
Prowl or Press?
One Tiger is on the prowl at a time, moving from one space to an adjacent space
along a connecting line. To get one's Goat, the Tiger leaps over an unprotected
Goat along a line of movement on to an open space. The devoured Goat is removed
from the board.
Once all Goats have appeared on the field, one Goat per turn moves to an
adjacent space along a line of movement. Tigers cannot leap over more than one
Goat so Goats must press together to protect themselves.
Note: Tigers cannot leap over Tigers or around corners and Goats cannot jump at
all.
Life in the jungle continues, alternating moves between Tiger and Goat...
Strategies
"Ghost Goats" : Goats can have the Tigers by their tails, without
physically occupying a space, restricting the Tigers' movements.
"Circle of Death" : To lure the Goats into their grasp, Tigers
cordon the Goats, leaving two vacant spaces in front of each Tiger.
