	Rhythmomachy Basics
		Rhythmomachy is, like so many period games, really more a family of games than a single, very specific one.
		The Rhythmomachy board is rectangular, generally 8 squares wide by 16 long.
		Rhythmomachy is unusual in that it is an asymmetrical game -- although each player has the same number of pieces, the numbers written on those pieces differ widely.

	16th Century Rhythmomachy, Version 1
		It is in many respects the strangest variant: the rules are considerably different from the "main" versions of Rhythmomachy that were common for much of the Middle Ages and Renaissance.
		The most important, and sometimes confusing, aspect of capture in Rhythmomachy is that you don't actually have to jump onto an enemy man to capture him.
		Rhythmomachy is not only one of the most important games of period, it is one of the coolest.

	Rythmomachia: RYTHMOMACHIA BASICS
		It is unclear to me whether the board became checkered or not; there is no intrinsic reason why it should be, and most of the historic images don't depict checkering, but a few do.
		The checkering with chessboard was introduced during the years 1,00o - 1,300, and also was introduced the longer range of some or the pieces (easier to move long distance).
		Which victories were allowed varies from version to version, but I would generally recommend some practice just getting the basics before trying to win one of the advanced forms.
