[edit] Equipment

A chess board 2 tokens 16d6 for each player, different colors

(yes, I know that it is a rediculous amount of dice. I caniballized my Stack set to make it work. Several sets of Yahtzee or another dice game would as well)

[edit] Set Up

Each player sets up their dice in the standard chess configuration, with the numbers on top standing for each type of piece:

  • 1 - pawn
  • 2 - rook
  • 3 - knight
  • 4 - bishop
  • 5 - queen
  • 6 - king

Each player also gets one token.

[edit] Play

Play is as standard chess, with the following additions: Instead of moving one of your pieces on your turn, you may give your token to the other player to re-roll one of your pieces. The piece remains in its space, but it is changed to a different type of piece depending on the number (as above). You may not re-roll kings, and you may not re-roll if you do not have a token.

[edit] Winning

There are two ways to win. If ANY of your opponents kings are in checkmate at the end of their turn, you win. If ALL of your pieces are kings and none of them are in check, you win.
