I have been hard at work on the textbook that Glenn and I are writing, but I haven’t been able to stop thinking about the silly chess idea. I finished a first pass of the rulebook, created some Gambit Cards (a new mechanic) and painted up some new minis for it. I recorded a show and tell of where the game is currently at.
I got a chance to playtest the game with my good buddy and local mini-games legend Joe McCullough over brunch. It didn’t break, and he didn’t hate it! We played it in public, and I can confirm that this is a perfect way to stealth-play a minis game in a cafe…
