The player who carries out one of the two following objectives is declared victorious immediately:
1) To vertically align five contiguous pawns of its color horizontally, or in diagonal. One calls this alignment a “Slope”.
2) To have taken five pairs of unfavourable pawns.
Caution: it is enough to carry out one or the other of these objectives to gain immediately. This double possibility of victory constitutes one of the attractions of the play.
