Re:Play focus using 2 checkers set
chaosbreaker (#463098),
Yes, Sid Sackson (Focus' designer) even published instructions for playing Focus on a checkerboard in his book "A Gamut of Games", chapter 4 "New Battles on an Old Battlefield", pages 125 to 134.
Quote:
For playing FOCUS you will need a checkerboard with the four corners missing as shown in illustrations 1 and 6.... For two players you will need checkers of two colors, 18 for each. Two regulation sets will take care of this. Those with interlocking edges work best.
