I'm leaning towards preferring the priority of these two rules to be swapped, because there's only a limited opportunity for the pairwise color balance to be equalized (and history has certainly not shown there to be a significant enough advantage of one side over the other to justify giving priority to global color balance).
Especially with that in mind, I also don't see the point of having a separate set of color assignment rules for 2 and 3 Players. |

I tend to agree with you on this. Although in Arimaa the color does not seem to matter nearly as much as in Chess.

Arimaa / General Discussion / Re: Arimaa Variants at Boardspace.net |

Intuitively I'd expect the small variant to usually reach a "traffic jam" state pretty quickly. There is only one trap, so each player's elephant can permanently shut down the other player's capture threats by waiting next to it. After that, it is likely very hard for either to make progress.
The wider board could be interesting. Pieces fighting for the wider flanks are somewhat removed from the trap control fight, and this has both positives and negatives. (A piece hiding in the corner is already often difficult to chase down on a normal board.) I might give it a try this weekend. |
