Anyone else? Anyone? Anyway, if they do exist and you packaged 32 of them up with a board and some rules, you'd have a bona fide game package here. Would you mind posting this on the wiki? I want to try it out, and if I do I'll post a playtest report on the discussion page. I am positive I’ve seen six-sided dice with chess pieces on the faces before, but I can’t seem to find any now.

There's a Steve Jackson game called <a href="http://membres.lycos.fr/arjan/chess.htm" rel="nofollow">Proteus</a> which comes with 16 of them in two colors. There must be a cheaper way to get them.

I was worried that the games would be too similar, but they seem different enough. Here are the rules for Proteus, in case anyone was interested.
