Asalto

Asalto is a hunt game known from early modern Europe, recorded in southern and western Europe and also called Assaut. It is played on the board of Fox and Geese, a cross-shaped board of points, but the top arm of the cross is enclosed by a double line to mark a fortress. One player places two officers inside the fortress, and the opponent has twenty-four soldiers occupying the points outside it. An officer captures by hopping over a soldier to the empty point just beyond, and an officer that could capture but does not is huffed. The soldiers win by filling every point of the fortress or by leaving the officers with no move, while the officers win by capturing enough soldiers that the fortress can no longer be filled. The Ludii portal catalogues it as a modern-period hunt game and cites Murray 1951 for the rules.
