玩法说明

Click and drag on any piece to move it where you need to for each players' move.

- Each player has 2 queen pieces each to play with besides the traditional pieces. There are no bishop pieces. Each piece has the same move set as traditional chess. The two players on each long side have the longest trip to the king row. The opposite king row allows you to bring any piece you lost back onto the checkerboard.

- When pieces are "taken", click and drag them off the checkerboard where ever works for you.

- For a 6 player game, the player on the far left starts first. Moves go counter-clockwise around the board. For 2-5 players, start in a similar manner, or roll dice/play roshambo to decide. Each player should only take 1 minute to make their move in normal, non-diplomacy quickplay. Multiple checks and check mates can occur. It is up to your enemies to decide to announce your pieces being in check or check mate by their pieces ONLY.

- For Hatcher Chess Diplomacy, each player should have multiple pieces of paper or blank cards handy, that they can write on. When it is not your active turn to move a piece, you can be writing something to convince another player to be an ally or to taunt them as an enemy.

Make sure no one can see what you are writing, as you announce to everyone that "Elizabeth" is receiving a message for example. You then flip over the piece of paper face down and slide it or pass it over to the intended player. Alliances can be made or broken.
