箭頭
The Emperor Jiaqing of the Qing dynasty is being challenged for control of his seas by 80,000 pirates under the command of Ching Shih. Start with the Emperor Jiaquing and pirate Ching Shih on their respective coins. Choose who goes first. Turns alternate. On a turn, the player follows an arrow to a new location. The game ends when one player moves on top of the other player, thereby winning.
Imagine that both players are perfectly smart. For each game decide what happens if Emperor Jiaqing goes first. Is the game a tie, or does the Emperor win or lose? Do the same if Ching Shih goes first.
