If you like using the queen, pick cards to make her stronger or to help defend her. Or, if you like the psychological game, choose the cards that will cause the most irritation to your opponent. As in a regular game of chess, the players alternate turns. However, on each turn, you may play one card from your hand.
Each card has a special effect, changing the rules of the game. Some cards modify your regular move. Others add to it, or replace it entirely! You may also play one card on each of your opponent's turns, if you have an appropriate card. Each card can only be played at a specific time, which is shown on the card itself. Some cards can only be played in response to an opponent's card.
Others can be played on his turn, even before he uses a card. When you play a card, put it on the discard pile, face up.
The card's effect takes place immediately. Exception: If a card has a continuing effect see below , place it beside the board to remind both players of that effect.
Such a card does not go to the discard pile unless another card cancels it. Until your deck is used up, your hand must always consist of five cards. Unless you play a card which lets you add a card to your hand such as Vulture , immediately replace each card you play, by drawing the top card from your deck.
When your deck is gone, you do not reshuffle the discards - you just have no more cards to draw. Then, when your whole hand is used up, you must finish the game according to the regular rules of chess, modified by any Continuing Effect cards see below that are still in play.
So try not to run out. Most cards change only a single move, but some last indefinitely. These are called Continuing Effect cards. A card does not have a continuing effect unless it says so at the bottom! When you play a Continuing Effect card, place it beside the chessboard, on your right. If the initial conditions for a Continuing Effect card are no longer met, that card is not discarded, but its effect is suspended until these conditions are once again met.
Some Continuing Effect cards transform a piece, turning it into a new kind of piece with a new name. Place a coin, poker chip, etc. Or use a sticky note. If you put an identical marker on the card, it will be easy to remember which card is affecting which piece!
Unless the creating card specifies otherwise, a transformed piece can be affected by cards that name the original piece. If a transformed piece is captured and then immediately rescued on that move or the following one by the play of a card, it keeps its special powers. If a card returns the piece to play later, it returns as the original type of piece. You are never required to play a card. In fact, if you use one every turn, you'll probably run out of cards. When you move without playing a card, you follow all the normal rules of chess.
After your own turn, if you did not play a card, you may discard one card from your hand and draw a replacement. You may not discard on your opponent's turn. Discarded cards are lost, unless another card returns them to play. No regular card may directly cause a checkmate situation or a non-checkmate victory from a "goal" card or the capture of a king! This rule takes precedence over any other rule, or anything on a card. If a played card breaks this rule, it has no effect. It is still considered played; the player must discard it and draw a new card.
It is fine to use a card to check the enemy king. And you cannot use a before-move card to check the enemy king, and then "capture" it with your regular move. The king cannot be captured! However, you could use a before-move card say, Double Kill, to remove an obstructing knight and then make a regular move to checkmate the enemy king. Likewise, if any continuing effect would cause or help to cause a checkmate, that is what happens; the Continuing Effect card is not removed from play.
Excessive unrelated comments should be removed. Generally I would be against this, since Knightmare Chess sometimes relies on a lot of luck. In a sense, this type of gameplay assumes that the game-master is highly reliable and unbiased If not The game-master must also have the capability to access the game within a set amount of time after each move similar to the time limits of chess.
And lastly, they must be friendly. I don't have the 2nd version Open board. Copy PGN for normal moves Recreate for card moves I can only see chess. I mean come on Forums General Chess Discussion. Feb 28, 0. Gameplay: - Normal moves without the use of a card can be posted directly on the forum topic. If anyone reading this is interested in my idea I'll probably re-post this idea on the main forum instead of just my blog.
I have the game I love that game, I have both editions. Playing it on a forum sounds ridiculously hard though. Mar 6, 0. Log In or Join. Forums Hot Topics. Most Recent.
