   6   Each player begins with eight grasshoppers between the first rank and the
   7   pawns on the third rank. The grasshopper moves potentially in all
   8   directions, but needs the help of a piece for its movement :
   9   it jumps over the first encountered piece (of any color),
  10   and land on the very next square. This square must be either empty or
  11   occupied by an enemy piece (which is eaten).
