Stop Gap

A checkers-like game featured in the Quick Winner Family Fun Games line by Hasbro in the 1970s. The game features 48 checkers in orange and yellow. Players take turns filling in the board except for the center circle to set up. An extra checker is used to stack on one of your players to make an "officer". The ultimate goal of the game is to eliminate all of your opponents officers, or force them to be unable to take a move. Single checkers, or "guards" move one space and can either jump checkers to remove them, or move onto a friendly piece to form a new officer. Officers can move any number of spaces in a single direction, but can only remove other officers.
