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

Famous quotes containing the word strategy:
“Do you think that mere words are strategy and power for war?”
—Bible: Hebrew, 2 Kings 18:20.
“... the generation of the 20’s was truly secular in that it still knew its theology and its varieties of religious experience. We are post-secular, inventing new faiths, without any sense of organizing truths. The truths we accept are so multiple that honesty becomes little more than a strategy by which you manage your tendencies toward duplicity.”
—Ann Douglas (b. 1942)
“That is the way of youth and life in general: that we do not understand the strategy until after the campaign is over.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
