[edit]Please change the image of the initial Bao position. There have to be 6 "kete" in each "nyumba" and not 5, as the article suggests. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 196.43.74.246 (talk) 08:25, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
- That's correct. I'll delete this nonsense image. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.56.151.137 (talk) 21:45, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Start phase = Namua not sufficiently explained
[edit]I stopped reading the article after the Namua-Section because it seems wrong to me obvious even for someone who has never played Bao in his life like me. If "The seed must be placed in a non-empty pit in the player's inner row." and only three pits are filled in the setup phase before, only these three pits can be filled with more seeds by this rule. If then "A "marker" pit is a pit of the inner row that faces a non-empty opponent's pit." no marker pits exist, because the initial pits filled in the setup phase do not face each other. Together these rules will lead to a static filling of three pits without any "capture" which would make the game senseless. According to my impression the Namua-section has to be clarified and the contradictions to be removed. What is also not explained: who starts the game? Do both players play simultaneously and is it a matter of speed? Or do they play one after the other and consequently are there typical opening scenarios?
