I tried to teach this to myself via the gamebook. And i tried playing it with my LFGS manager. neither of us have ever played before and are not familiar with it. Here isour question.....
When you step on a Singleton and place it at the Re-Entry Point; That is the 5th squre of your Stockpile right? So where does the Re-Entry Singleton go when all 5 spaces on the stockpile are taken? What if there is a peice in the Re-Entry Square and your pawn LASt pawn pushes the nest down to that last sqaure? Where do the Re entering pieces go? Or are we placing them incorrectly? And do the Re Entry Pyramids have to be stacked in nests or trees?
I have never ever played this before, neither had Ron (and I have never played regulsr backgammon before). So It wa like the bilnd leading the blind. Hopefully we weren;t too far off on how to play. I am sending links for two pictures. One were Yellow had 4 comeplete nests on their stockpile and "Xeno" had pyramids on the Re Entry. The next showing a New Yellow Pawn pushing the 4 Yellow Nests down to the end. Where do the "Xeno" Re Entry Pieces go? Or, are we playing totally incorrectly?
** I own only a Yellow solid stash (and 2 mixed)- So I am showing a Backgammon with "Yellow VS Xeno Set". At the LFGS Ron has a set of Ice Towers and we played a one solid color VS another solid color set
Thanks In Advance for putting me back on the straight path.
