Win by forcing a bot to push your rabbit into the goal.
 
Has this been done before?  I don't see anything like that at the unusual games page.  I just tried doing it against bot_ArimaaScoreP1.  I captured all pieces except a rabbit, the elephant, and a cat.  I immobilized the elephant and the rabbit, and attempted to herd the cat back to the goal while advancing rabbits.  I didn't work, because the cat committed suicide.  I guess it's true what they say about herding cats.

I've seen it done several times and I've done it myself a few times but I don't think anybody has ever bothered to write down the game numbers. My guess is that there should be a few dozen games like that in the database.

Whenever I see a bot move my rabbit into the goal, it's a suicide move rather than something I forced.
