Solah Seedi, the 37-Point Battlefield
A focused guide to India's traditional sixteen-soldiers strategy game, with rules, board anatomy, tactics, and a free H5 version to play.
Field notes
The site describes a standard two-player configuration with sixteen soldiers on each side and 37 connected points, leaving the centre line empty at the start. Legal movement follows drawn board lines rather than visual proximity; captures require jumping an adjacent opponent into an empty point. The guide also flags regional variants, including eighteen-soldier versions and boards with extra triangular extensions, while treating continuation and compulsory captures as rules players may need to agree on.
