Chess lovers will love this game. With a WWI theme, use the Trench to become immune to attacks from enemy territory and capture multiple pieces. Either play total elimination or for points.
Trench is a straight strategy game like Chess but the games are much quicker. It takes minutes to learn but a lifetime to master. It is basically a chess board turned sideways with a line diagonally across the middle which is the Trench. It is based on the Trench warfare of WWI. Pieces in the Trench cannot be taken from enemy territory and can charge out taking multiple pieces. There are 5 ranks of pieces which are shaped with either 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 levels. A rank 1 can move 1 space. A rank 2 can move 2 spaces but with additional options on directions. A level 3 can move 3 spaces also with increased options on directions, etc. The winner is determined by either eliminating all of their opponent’s pieces or by points since each piece has a value reflected in their rank. No experience necessary. Come and get a tutorial.
