I am about in the process of updating this webpage to take account of changes I have made to the game over the past few months. The major change is to the Pawns - there are now four varieties of Pawns which all assimilate with and split from one another, as do the other pieces. My original idea of allowing a Pawn to morph into whatever piece it captured looked beautiful on paper, but it created some bizarre situations when I play tested it with Zillions: seeing every Pawn as a potential Conqueror (the most powerful piece in the game), major pieces would launch kamikaze attacks across the board against Pawns. That wasn't what I had in mind, so I've changed that. In addition, the Arrow and Intruder (superfluous because their move was identical to the Lance and Spy, respectively, and differed from them only in that they fused with 'crooked' pieces rather than 'line' pieces) have been removed, some pieces have been renamed, and some graphics have been changed.
I will spend the next few hours or days updating this page; new graphics and a new Zillions file will be uploaded, so please bear with me.
