Chipco Chess

2–2 players · 45 min · 10+

Chipco Chess takes the basic movement rules of chess and adds wargame-style combat rules.

Outcomes are no longer certain because of the use of a d10. Chipco Chess is not solve-able, in the sense of standard chess, since thinking ahead is not possible. Players of all abilities have a more equal chance of winning the game.

Chipco Chess is played using a standard board with either chess pieces or wargame bases.

Variants are included that tailor the game to certain periods:

Ancient/Fantasy Crusades/Medieval Samurai American Civil War
