Lancers Practice Test

In a star puzzle, the center is where the lines intersect inside the figure—the four interior crossovers that sit at the heart of the star. Those central positions are the hubs that connect the arms from all directions, so they’re the only spots that truly occupy the star’s center. The riders placed at these interior intersections are the CPs, marking the central points. The other layouts place riders on endpoints or along the arms, not at the crossing points, so they don’t sit at the center. That's why the four central riders are the CPs.
