ABSTRACT:
A chess-like board game apparatus (110) is disclosed. The apparatus (110) includes a first game board (112) having forty-two playing positions arranged in six file rows and seven rank rows. Two of the positions include obstructions thereon such that they are not available for occupancy by a playing piece. The game is played by two opponents, each using four playing pieces corresponding to the king, knight, rook and bishop of the conventional game of chess. A die is utilized to introduce the element of chance.
