There are $n > 1$ points on the plane. Two take turns connecting more an unconnected pair of points by a vector of one of two possible directions. If after the next move of a player the sum of all drawn vectors is zero, then the second one wins; if it's another move is impossible, and there was no zero sum, then the first one wins. Who wins when played correctly?

Those six values must be such that there exists a number N with the following property: Any amount of money of $n$ ducats ($n$ positive and integer) where $n \le N$ may be paid in such a way that no more than two copies of each kind are required either to pay or to return.
