Expansion: Ice Fortress

Accepted Answer

Ice Fortresses are used in the expanded game rules.Losing the Third NutcrackerWhen a player loses their third piece, they may place their Ice Fortress on any empty square during any later turn.Placing the fortress counts as the player's entire turn.The Ice Fortress may not be placed in a way that creates a line of four or more pieces of the same color.Ice Fortress RulesThe Ice Fortress cannot be captured or moved once it has been placed.It counts as one of your own pieces and may be used to form a battle line of three pieces for capturing.If placing the Ice Fortress immediately creates a battle line of three, you may instantly capture one opponent's piece.When playing with Nutcracker Generals, Generals cannot jump over an Ice Fortress.
