Chapter 3. Rules

The board is separated into three regions.

The game board is constructed out of 7x6 fields which will be filled from bottom to top. The fields are marked in the colour of the player who made the current move. On top of each column a coloured arrow shows were the last piece had been put.

The status display shows which player colour starts and which colour is played by whom (player,computer,remote connection). It further shows the level of the computer opponent, the number of moves done as well as the computer calculated chance of winning. This chance is calculated only if the computer opponent makes a move. A positive number means that the player has an advantage, a negative number means that the computer thinks he is better.

The table display shows the number of won, lost and drawn games is noted for both player. Also the number of aborted games (Brk) and the sum of games is shown.
