You can describe the whole situation simply as which Zones must be occupied, and require that they all be in Mutual Links with the orthogonally adjacent Link Monsters. Zone-by-Zone Markers over-complicates what is quite straight-forward.
==Extra Link==
An '''Extra Link''' is a chain of [[Mutual Link]] that enables a player to occupy both [[Extra Monster Zone]]s simultaneously. This is the only possible method that allows way for a player to occupy control monsters in both Extra Monster Zones. A player can perform an Extra Link, so long as the following conditions are met:# An attempting Player controls a [[Link Monster]] in 1 of the Extra Monster Zones with the other Extra Monster Zone must be unoccupied. The Link Monster must have a [[Link Marker]] pointing to the [[Main Monster Zone]] in the same [[column]] as the Link Monster. (required Link Marker: Either '''Top''' or '''Bottom''')# There is another Link Monster with a Link Marker pointing to the third [[Main Monster Zone]] (counting from the attempting player's left) on that monster's side of the field and that monster is in [[Mutual Link]] with the Monster in the Extra Monster Zone. (Required Link Marker: Either '''Top''' or '''Bottom''', pointing to the Extra Monster Zone '''AND '''Either '''Left''' or '''Right''', pointing to the 3rd Main Monster Zone)# There is another Link Monster in the 3rd Main Monster Zone. (Required Link Marker: '''Left''' AND '''Right''')# There is another Link Monster in the same column as the unoccupied Extra Monster Zone with a Link Marker pointing towards it. (Required Link Marker: Either '''Top''' or '''Bottom''', pointing to the Extra Monster Zone '''AND ''' either '''Left''' or '''Right''', pointing to the 3rd Main Monster Zone)After fulfilling all four requirements, the player can complete the Extra Link by Summoning a Link Monster to the unoccupied Extra Monster Zone, in a Mutual Link with the Link Monster in (4) without disturbing the chain of Mutual Link. (i.e. You cannot use the Link Monsters involved in the Extra Link as [[Link Material]]s.)
A player can perform an Extra Link, so long as the following conditions are met:# The final result player controls a [[Link Monster]] in an Extra Monster Zone while the other Extra Monster Zone is a U-shaped chain unoccupied.# The three middle [[Main Monster Zone]]s on one side of the field must be occupied by Link Monsters, in which all .# Each of the Link Monsters involved are in the Extra Link must be in a Mutual Link with the orthogonally adjacent Link Monsters around itthat are also involved in the Extra Link.# The Link Monster involved in the Extra Link occupying the Main Monster Zone in the same [[column]] as the unoccupied Extra Monster Zone must have a Link Marker pointing to that unoccupied Extra Monster Zone.
In that case, a Link Monster can be Summoned to the unoccupied Extra Monster Zone, as long as it maintains the Extra Link by meeting the following conditions:#The Summoned Link Monster will be in a Mutual Link with the monster involved in the Extra Link that is in the same column as it.#Performing the Summon of that Link Monster does not disturb the Extra Link (e.g. by using the monsters involved in the Extra Link as [[Link Material]]s). The final result is a U-shaped chain of Link Monsters, in which each of the Link Monsters involved is in a Mutual Link with the orthogonally adjacent Link Monsters that are in that U-shape. {{Gameplay}}[[Category:Gameplay]]
