A chess-like board game for two players. Each player chooses a race (humans, dwarfs, elves, undead or orcs) and then his "army", i.e. his set of figures (including exactly one king). Similar to chess, each figure has different movements. Since, other than in chess, the armies are not predefined, there is a setup phase before the game where players place their figures on the board. Then the game is played like chess, with players alternately moving figures according to their possible movements. A player loses when his king is captured.
