Blob game

A game in which contiguous blobs battle each other.

A cannot move on its own.

If a is part of a contiguous blob that also contains a , you can move the so that it is contiguous with the same blob.

You can split a blob by moving a pawn like so:

Before:

⨀⨀⨀⨀⨂⨀

After:

⨀⨀ ⨀⨂⨀⨀

Each movement takes ATP. By default, all players get 3 ATP per turn.

A pawn cell that does not have any adjacent neighbors generates 1 extra ATP per turn. The ATP is generated at the beginning of the turn.

This ‘power plant’ configuration generates 6 extra ATP per turn:

⨀ ⨀ ⨀

Note that because these pawns are not connected to a blob with a control cell, they cannot move on their own.
