Khet board setups

The djed piece can move into a square occupied by a pyramid or an obelisk of either color; the pyramid or obelisk then goes to the square the djed piece started from.

In other words, the djed piece can swap places with an adjacent pyramid or obelisk, but not with a pharaoh or another djed piece.

Neither piece rotates. The obelisks have the power to stack or unstack on top of each other. In the stacked configuration the player may either move the stacked obelisks as one unit one square as shown in example A in any direction or unstack the top obelisk moving it one square in any direction while leaving the bottom obelisk in its place as shown in example B.

If a stacked obelisk is hit, only the top obelisk is removed from play leaving the bottom obelisk to remain in its position on the board. You can only stack once, so there are no triple or quadruple stacks allowed. Only obelisks of the same color may be stacked. When the laser beam hits one of the mirrors, it will always turn 90 degrees, as shown in the diagrams.

The beam always travels along the rows and columns; as long as the pieces are properly positioned in their squares, it will never go off at weird angles. The keyboard software may come with the keyboard or the computer, or you can download it from the keyboard manufacturer's website. Once installed, the keyboard software allows you to access and modify additional settings and features for your keyboard.

The specific settings and features available are different for each keyboard. If you have a Microsoft keyboard, you can adjust additional settings through the Mouse and Keyboard Center. The end game is often a dance of hiding the opening in your defences long enough to close in on the enemy. I developed a fourth one a while back, mainly for use with the beam splitter, but still good without it, if I can find it somewhere around here, I will post it if you like.
