* hop--->move piece placed on “?” its pip count
***large move 3 spaces
***medium move 2 spaces
***small move 1 space
*tip--->place opponent of choice back to start
***must move same sized piece UNLESS impossible, then move opponent closest to you
*swap--->switch places with opponent of choice
***must switch with same size piece again if possible. If not, choose anyone.
*dig--->move opponent of choice back as many places as pip count
*aim--->move your own piece ahead its pip count
*wild--->choose any option (hop, tip, swap, dig, aim)
Extras
*If you must move your opponent back its pip count and such a move happens to fall on a “?” symbol, player DOES NOT re-roll on his/her next turn, but instead, simply rolls the black die.
*If a piece is approaching an occupied space, bump opponent occupying the space back to start!
