Did I get the Ancient Egyptian game working?

Yes, I did. Here's how it looks during a game. The two opposing teams, green and blue, are moving in a reversed-'S' pattern trying to be first with all pieces off the board. The squares in the lower right with symbols are safe squares, where you can't be bumped from, except for the one with the water symbol (three wavy lines) four squares from the end. This game was probably a very early form of cribbage, and it was very popular about 4,000 years ago. It's still fun to play even now.
