![]() In the PCB Assembly process there are several Quality Control steps or options. Quality Control is essential in production processes. We think that Falling Off would be the 'great game' Ralph claims on 10x10 or even 8x10.Test Fixture Design Presentation ICT & FCT Test Fixtures ''Careening pieces cannot make their normal moves'' is a crux of the concept. Also whether a second, or double, capture changes direction of the careener or speeds its careening. The actual Rules here need to be more specific about the directionality of careening-capture, as Ralph acknowledges. In the old days we would respect and reference our sources. What other CV permits multiple occupancy? The term 'Momentum' comes from EOTW which Ralph courteously credits. In fact, moving a friendly piece onto its square stops the careening. Here any number of pieces may be on the same square. A 'capture' causes a 'careening' one step at a time in one direction toward and over the edge. In Falling Off, every capture causes a consistent effect too, different from Inverse Capture. In Simple Inverse Capture, all the standard pieces act the way of capturing inversely. What is outstanding about Ralph's articles is that there is never a hodgepodge of elements but a consistent theme. Still keying off Chess with Inverse Capture, we find correlates within Betza.

Unfixable problem, this will probably be a great game. Crowds are dangerousīecause a crowd capture will set more than one piece careening, at Careening pieces have, inĮffect, been captured, but they can be saved.
