"Ordo X" is an extension to the original design "Ordo", which was
posted here a while ago and is available for online play at
superdupergames.org and igGameCenter by now. It's also published by
nestorgames.

Now this extension uses the same material as the "old" game. There are
some modifications which make for a much faster and surely harder
game: more move options (diagonals and double-moves) and a different
capture rule. The X variant is not meant to replace the original
design though.

See it at http://spielstein.com/games/ordo-x

Have fun,
:-Dieter Stein, aka "spielstein"

Cool! What prompted you to design this extension?

The original game is generally a slow one and rewards more defensive
play. That's not a bad thing, yet I had the feeling there was more
potential in the concept. So I started to think about it again, and
the X rules just fell into place.
