Duodecim Scripta

Duodecim Scripta  which translate to a game of twelve lines. the objective of the game is to get all 15 of your pieces onto the board by rolling the dice and which ever number is rolled you put a piece on the board ( stacking is allowed)  which start at "A" then to get all your pieces towards the end which is marked with an "E". Players roll 3 dice and can either choose to move 3 pieces each moving the value of the dice e.g 1 piece moves 2 one piece moves 4 and the last piece moves 6  or 2 pieces with the sum of 2 dice e.g i rolled a 2, 3 and  5  so i can add 2 to 3 or 5  or 3 to 5 and move a piece either 5, 7 ,8 then the other with the remaining die or I  can move one piece to the sum of all 3 spaces.

a single piece can take any opponent piece and vice visa unless they are stacked  stacking is when a piece lands on the same square so they can stack and move as one individual pieces stacks cannot be taken (unless you are playing Finkle's version which allows for bigger stacks to take smaller stacks).

also to get your pieces of the board you roll one dice to get the exact number you want.

The major flaw of this game is that it relies on luck in fact the major mechanic is luck. while luck it self is not a bad part of a game to much makes the game completely void of strategy. because the rules we played meaning stacks could not be destroyed made it so that any opportunity to stack was taken cause it is better to roll one die for 15 pieces than to roll a die 15 times for each piece. the game was changed first in to Tabula around the middle ages  then in to the modern game backgammon  with hopfully all the problems within this game fixed
