Since Java is no longer supported in most browsers, our Java applets probably will not run unless you install an extension that will run them. We recommend installing the CheerpJ Applet Runner extension on Edge, Chrome, or another Chromium browser. If your browser still does support Java, and you're not using this extension, make sure this site is listed in your Java exceptions list. You should find this in the Security tab of your Java control panel.

Joao Pedro Neto, Feb. 2000. Pieces moving more than 1 square travel through hyperspace at the rate of one square per turn. If a unit finds its destination square occupied by one of the same side, both pieces, and all neighboring units, are destroyed.

You are responsible for noticing pieces about to move out of hyperspace, and protecting your king.
