Pack Solitaire

["davidlhsl" <DavidLHsl@...>]

I have uploaded the rules to a game I created called Pack Solitaire. 
It requires 2 piecepacks to have enough coins to play.

If you're familiar with Zoki (www.zoki.com), you'll notice some 
similarities. Ironically, Zoki wasn't the inspiration for this 
design.

I had previously considered combining coins and tiles to form tiles 
that could be played like dominos. The recent discussion about the 
piecepackplus (pp+) system inspired me to pursue this design 
further. The pp+ tile specification mentions arranging suits on the 
tiles to permit tile placement. Rather than actually modifying my 
piecepack to incorporate this, I decided to use the coins as a way 
of determining alignment. Therefore, this game can be played with 
your piecepacks.

The rules document contains two examples which should clarify how 
the game works (and was created from one of my actual games), but I 
have typed a formal rules section. I have actually playtested this 
myself, so I feel very confident with this.

I will likely develop a 2-player game around this design. This 
design of creating a set of tiles that function like dominos could 
open up a game system within a game system. Ron Hale-Evans might be 
impressed. :)

I will continue playtesting this myself further over the next week. 
Unless I receive feedback to the contrary or a problem crops up in 
my playtest, I'll submit this to www.piecepack.org in about a week.
