== Different type of ''potentials'' == * The '''GIPF piece''' - Strictly speaking the ''GIPF'' piece belongs to the standard game of ''GIPF'' and is as such not a potential piece (i.e. it is not linked or linkable to any other game, its special power may be used without winning any other game). However it could be considered a normal piece with a special power in the game of ''GIPF''. So conceptually speaking it ''could'' be considered a ''GIPF'' potential. * The '''TAMSK potential''' - As ''TAMSK'' is a game of time, this potential piece grants an additional move to its owner winning him some time in the ''GIPF'' game. (Remember: it is impossible to gain extra moves in a standard game of ''GIPF''). * The '''ZÈRTZ potential''' - In ''ZÈRTZ'' marbles leap over adjacent marbles to capture them. The ''ZÈRTZ'' potential piece allows to leap over an adjacent piece in the ''GIPF'' game (remember: leaping over other pieces is not allowed in a standard game of ''GIPF''). * The '''DVONN potential''' - ''DVONN'' is a game of stacking pieces. The ''DVONN'' potential piece allows the active player in the ''GIPF'' game to stack his potential piece on top an opponents normal piece and a such changing the color of the piece of his opponent (remember: stacking is not allowed in a standard game of ''GIPF'') * The '''YINSH potential''' - In ''YINSH'' the players move their pieces over one or more empty spaces as long as they move in a straight line. The ''YINSH'' potential piece allows a player to move similarly in ''GIPF.'' When the ''YINSH'' potential is activated in ''GIPF'', the active player can move a piece over one or more empty spaces (remember: pieces are move to the first empty space on the board in a standard game of ''GIPF''). * The '''PÜNCT potential''' - ''PÜNCT'' is a game about covering pieces of the opponent with your own pieces. The ''PÜNCT'' potential allow the active player to slides his potential piece on top of the ''PÜNCT'' potential of your opponent or on top of one of his ''GIPF'' pieces (remember: sliding on top of an opponents piece is not allowed in a standard game of ''GIPF''). * The '''TZAAR potential''' - Designer Kris Burm declared that there will be no ''TZAAR'' potential. Please note that ''TZAAR'' is replacing ''TAMSK'' in the ''GIPF'' Project. The ''TAMSK'' potential suits well with the game ''TZAAR''. In ''TZAAR'' the players have each turn the option to perform a second move or not. * The '''LYNGK potential''' - Designer Kris Burn declared that there will be no ''LYNGK'' potential. * The '''MATRX GIPF potential''' - No news yet about any additional potential pieces. However the ''MATRX GIPF'' game will contain the above potentials.
