The King's Caste

0 players · 0 min

The King's Caste is a modified Tarot deck that was designed to answer this question: What if European Chess were a card game? It is compatible to any Standard Card game, or Tarot Card game, yet there are subtle differences that allow for wider range of game play/design.

The 86-card deck contains the following:

 16 cards in each of the four French suits (spades, hearts, diamonds, and clubs):
     10 numbered cards:
         8 pawns (value 1–8, #1 is hashed)
         2 bishops (value 9–10, #10 is hashed)
    
     6 face cards:
         2 rooks (one hashed)
         2 knights (one hashed)
         1 queen
         1 king
    

 22 trump cards
     I–XXI
