Editing 4-Player Chess

= Four-Player Chess = A game for 4 players based on the ancient board game of Chess. **BGG**: [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/2173/4-player-chess] == Components == 16 pieces per side, including: * 1 King * 1 Queen * 2 Rooks * 2 Bishops * 2 Knights * 8 Pawns Also, an 8x8 board of alternating black and white squares - with 4 "Wings", one on each side, with an additional 3 rows of 8 alternating squares. The pieces start on the outer 2 of these rows.

Playing Red (Hearts = red/pink) against Black (Spades = black/gray) against Blue (Diamonds = blue/cyan) against Yellow (Stars = dark yellow/pale yellow) is suggested, although any 4 suits would do. Crowns is not suggested, as the iconography may be confusing for this game. * King = K * Queen = Q * Rook = J x 2 * Bishop = 8 x 2 (8 looks both like a letter B and also like the piece) * Knight = 7 x 2 (7 looks like the piece, and is less than 8) * pawns = low cards (0-3) x 2 80 other cards from the deck can be chosen at random to be laid face-down to make the dark squares of the 4-player chessboard. == See Also == * [[Karten Schach]] * [[Tile Chess]] * [[Chess]]
