Hive: The Pillbug Expansion - Pocket Edition

The Pillbug is a new pair of tiles that can be added to Hive. The pillbug moves like the queen bee one space at a time but it also has a special ability that it may use instead of moving. This ability allows the pillbug to move an adjacent unstacked piece (whether friendly or enemy) two spaces: up onto the pillbug itself then down into another empty space adjacent to itself. Some exceptions for this ability: The Pillbug may not move the piece most recently moved by the opponent. The Pillbug may not move any piece in a stack of pieces. Furthermore any piece moved by the Pillbug may not be moved at all (directly or via the Pillbug action) on the next player s turn. The mosquito can mimic either the movement or special ability of the Pillbug even when the Pillbug it is touching has been rendered immobile by another pillbug.
