Strategy
Forums of Abalone communities have found that generally:
- Keep the marbles close to the centre of the board and force the opponent to move to the edges
- Keep the marbles close together for increased defense and attack, especially in a hexagon shape to be able to push or defend in any direction
- Pushing the opponent off the board is not usually a good idea if it leads to weaknesses in the player’s geometry
