For instance, if we can get one player's pieces onto a1 c1 e1 g1 b3 d3 f3 h3 a5 c5 e5 g5 b7 d7 f7 h7, then they'll be separated.<p> However, 8x8 doesn't seem like enough room for a <b>playable</b> game of SIC. Allowing diagonal adjacency would help a little, and so would extra ranks and/or fewer pieces.<p> If anyone tries my SIC ideas out, let us know how it goes.
