The Game of Jetan. Extensive discussion of various versions of the rules of Jetan. (10x10, Cells: 100) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]</P>Well, I'll admit that I hadn't gone down far enough to see that you actually gave your own preferences regarding how the game should be played. Using your terms, let me list what I think is the authentic interpretation:</P>
<P><B>Chained Panthan</B><BR>
<B>Chained Warrior</B><BR>
<B>Chained Padwar</B><BR>
<B>Jump Thoat</B><BR>
<B>Chained Dwar</B><BR>
<B>Chained Flier (Odwar)</B><BR>
<B>Chained Wild Chief</B><BR>
<B>Brave Chained Wild Princess with Chained Wild Escape</B></P>
<P>As it turns out, this differs from Jean-Louis Cazaux's interpretation on the matter of the Princess' escape. His interpretation is what you call Free Wild Escape.</P>
<P>The interpretation I give here is what I think the most literal and authentic interpretation is, not necessarily what I think would make the best game. That is a matter I haven't given much thought to. This is not an expression of a preference concerning how Jetan should be played but an expression of a conclusion concerning what is the most accurate reading of how Burroughs intended Jetan to be played.</P>
