Editing Sarhket

A complex game played on Cait Prime (Ferasa). The games is used in some regions to settle disputes. Ahmed Ibn Salid played the game on Cait to gain the respect and trust of members of the Caitian Liberation Front..

The rules are shown here:

''"The rules are easy, but the practice of play not so easy." He replied seriously. " There are two types of balls. The soft one, the one I hit you with is the Multash, it's the playing ball. The second, is harder. It's called a Bazghot."

''The Universal Translator translated the swear word into Federation Standard. The others cubs snickered. Ahmed just nodded.'' 

''"I suppose there's a reason for the ....colorful name?" Ahmed queried.''"Yeah, we're getting to that part." The second teen said.

''"Okay, sorry, please continue.." Ahmed replied.''

''The first teen nodded. "The rules are simple.  You all stand in a circle roughly two arm spans apart. The person with the Multash, kicks it to someone else... They can use their body, or feet to stop and return the Multash to anyone else in the circle. If you miss someone completely but they didn't dodge, then you get a single foul. If you drop the Multash or use your hands or claws, you get a double foul. If you flinch away and cause your self to be missed, you get the foul, not the kicker. Fouls against others is how you make points."''

''" With a single foul, each other member of the circle gets to kick the Bazghot once at the person making the foul. If they hit him and he makes noise when he's hit, or falls down, the kicker gets a point. If they miss, or the Jagol... the fouler... stays quiet and doesn't dodge, then no point is scored, and play resumes with the Multash. "''

''"If you get a double foul from using hands or claws, then we repeat the foul process, but each player shoots twice. After a couple of solid hits you'll understand why the ball is called a Bazghot."''

''"Okay, so it's a stamina game." Ahmed said off-handedly.''

''"No... it's more than that. Some people actually use it to settle disputes in some provinces. They play until one side or the other concedes. We just play for points, usually fifty. The first kicker to fifty wins, it's pretty straight forward." The first teen replied.''''
