New game - Akron

[Cameron Browne <cameronb@optusnet.com.au>]

A new game Akron has been added to the server. This is a 3D connection
game in  which players strive to connect their sides of the board
with marbles of their colour, possibly stacking them to step over enemy
blocks in the process.

There is an article on Akron in the latest issue of Abstract Games
Magazine. Please see "help akron" or
http://www.gamerz.net/pbmserv/akron.html
for a description of the game.

Paul (fritzd) has written a nice app for graphically displaying Akron boards and other games at http://www.math.lsu.edu/~wamelen/gamerz/Akronlinks.html

Hope you enjoy it and please challenge me to a game any time! I'll be hosting an Akron tournament in the near future.
