| Nine men's morris is a strategy board game for two players dating at least to the Roman Empire. The game is also known as nine-man morris, mill, mills, the mill game, merels, merrills, merelles, marelles, morelles and ninepenny marl in English. The game has also been called cowboy checkers and is sometimes printed on the back of checkerboards. Nine men's morris is a solved game – one in which either player can force the game into a draw. Its name derives from the Latin word merellus, 'gamepiece'. * The game was also played and practiced in India. Dating back to the 9th–10th centuries, evidence of game has been found on stone inscriptions in Bhoga Nandeeswara temple in Karnataka. It was known as saalu mane ata, jodpi ata or char-par in the Kannada language, and navakankari in Sanskrit. * Three main alternative variations of the game are three, six, and twelve men's morris. * ==Rules==Its board consists of a grid with twenty-four intersections or points. Each player has nine pieces, or "men", usually coloured black and white. Players try to form 'mills'—three of their own men lined horizontally or vertically—allowing a player to remove an opponent's man from the game. A player wins by reducing the opponent to two pieces (where they could no longer form mills and thus be unable to win), or by leaving them without a legal move. * The game proceeds in three phases:* Placing men on vacant points * Moving men to adjacent points * (optional phase) Moving men to any vacant point when the player has been reduced to three men |
