RULES:
The object of the game is to be the first player to connect the center circle to the outer edge of the board though a continues chain of adjacent pawns. Layout the board and each player takes a set of 27 matching colored pawns. Pick a player to go first, then turns alternate.
On your turn, you must place one of your pawns on any empty intersection of lines on the board. If you sandwich one of your opponent’s pawns between two of your own in a continuous line with no gaps in between, then you get to remove their pawn from the board and take another turn. Captured pawns are removed from the game and may not be re-placed on future turns. You may capture again on your bonus turn, and continue to gain successive extra turns. If you capture multiple pieces in one move, you only gain 1 extra turn. You may not capture through the center.
You may safely place a piece sandwiched in between two enemy pieces without it being captured. Once you have placed all your pawns, then your movement phase begins.
On your turn, move 1 piece in a single direction following 1 line through vacant intersections as far as you like or until you run into an obstacle. You may not move through or into obstacles or through the center. You capture pieces by creating sandwiches in the same way as before, gaining an extra turn for each one. There is one new feature, the center of the board acts as half the sandwich for either player when capturing pawns in the innermost ring.
The first player to connect the center circle to the outer edge of the board through a continuous chain of adjacent pawns, wins.

A yes, Celtic chess.
It's fun seeing people discovering the Welsh language

[@2-Way_Intersection]

i think someone made welsh as a joke

[@t-genz8239]

You know what triple s. I began learning how to play the games through you, but I literally just vibe to your how tos. I sleep to these aswell because they're so enjoyable and calm. You've found a new audience my friend

[@2-Way_Intersection]

fr, im not a big board game guy, but these are just really nice to listen to

[@wallridez514]

It really is like a combination of chess checker and go. Seems fun.

[@klampassn9987]

It's more similar to goh tbh

[@retnoartanti1976]

Maybe viking chess.

[@Lucius_Chiaraviglio]

This sounds related to but different from cowboy checkers/nin men's morris (that has you capture an opponent's piece anywhere by lining 3 of your pieces in a row instead of sandwiching a piece, and the object is to get your opponent down to 2 pieces -- connecting the center to the edge is just another way of lining 3 of your pieces in a row and does not automatically give you a win).

[@ReaperTheGodOfGames]

Are you Welsh?
How do you say Gwyddbwyll so well?! xD

[@sungkarson9526]

He’s American

[@Jayvee4635]

@@sungkarson9526 that makes it even more impressive

[@ReaperTheGodOfGames]

How can you be sure? Has he confirmed it himself?@@sungkarson9526

[@GidypiG.]

Gah-wi-Th-boosh never mind that's wrong

[@KororaPenguin]

No. The first Y is supposed to be pronounced like a Slavic Y (i.e., halfway between "ee" and an unrounded version of the "oo" in "hoop"), the WY is supposed to be a diphthong of the "oo" in "took" and the aforementioned Y, and the ll is supposed to be a voiceless fricative version of L.

Did someone named this had a stroke?

No, they're just unfortunately Welsh.

Hi

[@The_Dr_Fate]

​@@Zekiumno, he means when both players sandwish so many opponent pieces, that there isnt enough to make a line

[@BRUH-lx3jv]

​@@The_Dr_FatePossibly a draw, but I'm not welsh so I'm not sure.

[@The_Dr_Fate]

@@BRUH-lx3jv i did not ask the question but thanks

[@masterimbecile]

The “dd” makes the “th” sound, and the “ll” sound isn’t present in English but “sh” is probably the closest. The y makes the “oo” sound. Put these together and the pronunciation makes much more sense, so don’t freak out!

[@mortsartstudio9403]

The "LL" is more of a hissing noise and the "Y" is is more of a "ue"

[@theyoutubeguy1]

That pronunciation lol.
