Shatra (game)
Shatra is a chess-like game which was played in the Altai region. It can be seen as a mixture between chess and draughts. General rules Shatra is played on board of 62 tiles which are divided into 3 areas: The central area of 7x6 tiles and two 3x3 tiles (fortresses), which are connected via 1 tile (temdek) to the central board. The central area is divided horizontally by a ditch. Each player has 1 king, 1 queen, 2 rooks, 2 bishops and 11 pawns (shatras). The pieces move as in chess. The pieces placed in the fortress are called reserves and are unable to be moved. Instead they can be placed on any free tile of the board on the own site of the central board (reaching from the temdek to the central ditch) at any given time. Dropping a piece from the fortress onto the central board ends the turn of the player. If a piece within the fortress makes a capture, it has to be moved to the own site of the board in the next round. Vacation of the fortress leads to the removal of the respe ...

List Of Abstract Strategy Games
An abstract strategy game is a board, card or other game where gameplay is mostly without a theme and a player's decisions affect the outcome. Abstract strategy games are combinatorial, i.e. they provide perfect information (instead of hidden or imperfect information), rely on neither physical dexterity nor non-deterministic elements (such as shuffled cards or dice rolls) during gameplay. Some board games which do not rely on the removal or movement of pieces can also be played as pen-and-paper games. Almost all abstract strategy games are designed for two players or teams taking a finite number of alternating turns. Chess and chess-like games Paper and pencil games "N-in-a-row" games N-in-a-row games involve placing and/or moving pieces on a game board attempting to create a layout of N pieces in a straight line (often N=3, but not always). Positional games involve ''only'' playing pieces, with no movement or captures afterwards. Many of these positional games c ...

According to Sachs, Rattles include: * Maracas, widely used in Cha Cha Cha and jazz. ** Chac-chac, as known in Trinidad, Dominica and the French Antilles. * The egg-shaped plastic chicken shake, filled with steel shot and available in varying tones depending on the size and quantity of shot. * Folk instruments especially used in ceremonial dance. * Toy rattles for infants.
