Cannon
CANNON
Cannon is an elegant 2 player game of war, it is easier to learn than chess with the same level of replay you would expect from classic games.Cannon is an abstract war game where each player first places a city on the back row, then pieces move trying to capture the opposing city or shoot it with a cannon, which is a special arrangement of three pieces in a row.
Cannon is not chess! It does have some of the same elements.
Same number of pieces.
Same object; Capture of the Town (King).
Played on a grid.
So what makes it different?
In Chess you have 6 different types of pieces each having its own behavior. Cannon has only two types of pieces the Town & the Soldier. The behavior the pieces depends on the relation of one to the others, you must keep your soldiers in formation to maximize the attack and defensive values.
