Thai Checkers

This checkers variant is played on 8x8 board with only 8 pieces of each player (see the picture).



The rules are similar to Czech Checkers with these differences:
  • A queen can make long jumps (over more empty squares) but must land just on the next square after the captured piece.
  • A queen does not have a jumping preference (if a jump can be done with a queen and a pawn at the same time, any of these pieces can be chosen).
