Enjoy your favorite crossing board game with the Lian Chinese Checkers Set in the shape of a six pointed star on a maple wooden board. Each point of the star is a triangle consisting of ten holes (four holes to each side). The interior of the board is a hexagon with each side five holes long. Each triangle is a different colour and there are six sets of ten pegs with corresponding colours. Chinese Checkers can be played by 2 up to 6 players. Obviously, for the six player game, all pegs and triangles are used. If there are four players, play starts in two pairs of opposing triangles and a two player game should also be played from opposing triangles. In a three player game the pegs will start in three triangles equidistant from each other.
