Overview

Star Chess is a game of chess for two players. The rules are based on standard chess rules but the pieces are represented by space ships. There are some additional game mechanics such as the ability to fire missiles, pieces have shields that defend them and pieces can warp into hyperspace when in trouble. After warping the piece will return at a random time and place on the board. There is no option for playing against an AI.
