Abstract

This parlour game is composed of several plates, which may be fixed or sliding, or all sliding, positioned so as to be parallel and flat on a base. On their upper face, they have a certain number of different, coloured squares arranged in a checkerboard fashion and over which magnetised pieces are moved. Some of these plates can slide between others which are fixed, all of them having an identical width but the sliding ones being longer than the fixed ones. The sliding plates are modified after each movement of a piece by one or other of the players. The magnetised pieces located on the squares of the sliding plates remain at the location given to them for as long as the said plates slide.

Description

DESCRIPTION
Jeu de société à plaque de damiers coulissantes
L'invention concerne un damier modulable pour jeu de société.DESCRIPTION
Board game with sliding checkered plate
The invention relates to a modular board for board games.

L'invention est une innovation ainsi qu'un compromis entre la relative simplicité du jeu de dame même déplacement pour tous les pions et la complexité du jeu d'échec, variété de déplacement des pièces, l'un et l'autre se pratique sur un damier fixe. The invention is an innovation as well as a compromise between the relative simplicity of the game of the same displacement for all the pawns and the complexity of the chess game, variety of displacement of the pieces, one and the other is practiced on a fixed checkerboard.

L'invention a pour but de palier a cette trop grande différence de difficulté sur un simple damier. The invention aims to overcome this too great difference in difficulty on a simple checkerboard.

L'innovation principale de l'invention est la modification du damier fixe par un damier modulable,
La difficulté apportee réside dans le coulissement de certaines plaques entre d'autres qui restent fixes.The main innovation of the invention is the modification of the fixed checkerboard by a modular checkerboard,
The difficulty brought lies in the sliding of certain plates between others which remain fixed.

Chacune des parties coulissantes est de forme rectangulaire et est déplaçable en translation parallèle aux parties fixes également rectangulaire, le tout formant 1 1ensemble d'un damier. Each of the sliding parts is rectangular in shape and is displaceable in translation parallel to the fixed parts also rectangular, the whole forming 1 1 set of a checkerboard.

La surface entière du jeu peut-être carrée ou rectangulaire, tout dépend du nombre de plaques coulissantes ou fixes que I 'on veut bien mettre en place lors de la fabrication. The entire surface of the game may be square or rectangular, it all depends on the number of sliding or fixed plates that I 'want to put in place during manufacture.

Les parties coulissantes (mobiles) sont plus longues que les parties fixes, de ce fait le jeu dans son ensemble fera apparaitre des vides en bout des parties fixes Cl) ceci n'entravera en rien le déroulement de la partie car lorsque les plaques coulissantes plus longues que les fixes sont Csorties) par rapport a la surface compacte du jeu, les cases sty trouvant seront toujours jouables par l'un ou l'autre joueur, puisqu'a chaque manipulation de pion, il y a modification de la surface de jeu. The sliding parts (mobile) are longer than the fixed parts, therefore the game as a whole will cause voids to appear at the end of the fixed parts Cl) this will in no way hamper the course of the part because when the sliding plates more long as the fixed ones are out) compared to the compact surface of the game, the sty boxes finding will always be playable by one or the other player, since with each manipulation of pawn, there is modification of the playing surface .

Les cases extrêmes des parties coulissantes se retrouveront toujours en dehors de l'ensemble compact du jeu, du fait qu'apures chaque coup joué, le joueur doit pousser les plaques coulissantes, vers sa gauche ou vers sa droite suivant les conventions définies à lfavance. The extreme boxes of the sliding parts will always be found outside the compact set of the game, because after each stroke made, the player must push the sliding plates, to his left or to his right according to the conventions defined in advance.

La difficulté apportée au jeu de dames classique par les dispositions suivant l'invention, est dans la réflexion du déplacement de son pion aimanté qui reste solidaire de la case qui lui est attribuée, mais devient mobile sur 1 'ensemble du jeu par son appartenance a cette case si celle-ci est située sur une plaque coulissante. The difficulty brought to the classic game of checkers by the arrangements according to the invention is in the reflection of the displacement of its magnetic pawn which remains integral with the box which is allocated to it, but becomes mobile over the whole of the game by its belonging to this box if it is located on a sliding plate.

Il y a donc obligation pour les deux joueurs à préméditer les futurs emplacements des cases libres et des cases occupées par des pions7 les siens ou les autres. There is therefore an obligation for the two players to premeditate the future locations of the free spaces and the spaces occupied by pawns 7 his own or the others.

Le déplacement des cases coulissantes se pratique de la même façon par les deux joueurs, il n'y a pas de coup imprévu dans la modification constante du damier, fixes ou coulissantes, toutes les cases sont jouables de part et d'autre puisqu'il y a égalité de cases (sorties) qu'elles soient positionnées a droite ou a gauche de chaque joueur. The displacement of the sliding boxes is practiced in the same way by the two players, there is no unforeseen move in the constant modification of the checkerboard, fixed or sliding, all the boxes are playable on both sides since There are equal boxes (exits) whether they are positioned to the right or to the left of each player.
