Ruleset: a numerical listing of the rules in all of their forms throughout
the game.

Numerical
Ruleset: a numerical listing of only the current rules.
-
Logical
Ruleset: a topical listing of only the current rules. Some rules may
appear in multiple categories. Recommended for beginners.
-

Ruleset: a numerical listing of the rules we used to start the game
on 12 March 1998.

The Historical, Numerical, and
Logical Rulesets are generated from a master text ruleset by munge, several C++ and Perl programs.
