GipfProject, #4

• GIPF is a game of pushing.
• TZAAR is a game of capture and stacking.
• ZÈRTZ is a game of sacrifice.
• DVONN is a game of towers.
• YINSH is a game of flipping.
• PÜNCT is a game of connection.
• LYNGK is a game of synthesis.

• GIPF parts: 4 width hex board, 37 spots, 18 white checkers, 18 black checkers
• Tzaar parts: 5 width hex board, 60 spots, 30 white checkers, 30 black checkers
• Zertz parts: 4 width hex board, 37 rings, 6 white marbles, 8 gray marbles, 10 black marbles
  • 37 ring (4 width) is believed solvable; 61 ring (5 width) is not
• Dvonn parts: 49 point board, 23 white checkers, 23 black checkers, 3 red checkers
• Yinsh parts: 6 width hex board, 85 spots, 5 white rings, 5 black rings, 51 black/white checkers

A 6 width hex board, pattern like this, should be appropriate for all games; flippable checkers recycled from a Reversi set (64 black white) should be suitable for games depending on checkers ; 37-49 washers and a handful of marbles or beads should be suitable for Zertz; actually purchasing Punct and Lyngk is probably the most realistic way to play those.
