Muju Academy · Ashkie Arcade

Ten rules lessons and six element lessons. These recordings were made before the September 2026 single-ruleset release and teach the retired turn order.
Home squares hold 8 crystals; brighter expansions hold 16. Plant Mining is 3 / 5 / 8. Metal Mining is 3 / 4 / 5; Yan has Speed 0.
Unchanged lessons retain their verified v7 recordings.
Four actions, nine songs, and every tier’s bonk matrix are included.

Turn-order update
Lessons R01, R04–R07, R09 and R10 teach the previous turn order. The current rules are Act → Mine + Upkeep → Prepare. Purchases are public summons that arrive on your next turn if undisturbed; disrupted summons refund their cost. The quiet-turn draw is now twenty plies, not ten: lesson R09 still says ten, and its warning still turns amber at seven rather than seventeen. What resets the clock is unchanged — only an attack that removes a piece. These recordings have not yet been updated.

Piece and title rename — September 22, 2026
The game is now Muju Hono Irumbu, not Muju Hono Tanka. Ten pieces and three element language labels changed names: Hono → Honō, Kimubunga → Kimbunga, Sjor → Sjór, Aegirinn → Ægirinn, Göl → Loş, Sachita → Mallki, Sachakuna → Sach'akuna, Yan → Poṉ, Mazask → Veḷḷi, Tanka → Irumbu. Stats, prices and every rule are unchanged. These recordings still use the old names; they have not yet been updated.

Kill clock — September 22, 2026
The quiet-turn draw is retired. Ten kill-free player turns, not twenty, now end the game immediately, decided by each side's mined total — every crystal its units have taken from the board, plus Black's starting handicap — with the higher total winning and equal totals drawing; it is no longer always a draw. Lessons R09 (the draw lesson) and R10 still teach the retired twenty-ply always-a-draw rule, and R09's warning still turns amber at seventeen rather than seven. What resets the clock is unchanged — only an attack that removes a piece. These recordings have not yet been updated.

Mandatory komi — September 28, 2026
New Prime games always give Black 0.5 plus an integer from 0 through 18: 0.5–18.5 starting crystals, default 0.5. Off and 19.5 are retired creation choices. New games cannot tie on mined totals. Existing games keep their original grants. Lessons R09 and R10 still describe earlier scoring and handicap choices; these recordings have not yet been updated.
