Abalone
Abstract board game played on a hexagonal grid where two players control opposing sets of large marbles. Players take turns moving one to three marbles in a line or sideways and attempt to push opponent marbles off the edge by exerting superior numerical weight along a direction. Groups of marbles have strength equal to their size, so a larger aligned group can shove a smaller or single marble. Six movement directions create tactical position and pushing opportunities, and optional extra marble sets allow up to six players to join.
