The German one with unicorns is played on a 5x5x5 area. I thought That I had pointed it out during the pre poll discussion. x42 |

I recall that you did, too. Ah, well, anyone who has played it will know, and anyone who hasn't probably won't care, so it doesn't really matter for the poll. |

I suspect that I will be the only one who has played it so as you say it will not mater. x42 |

An extra type of piece with a move similar to the knights was needed to fit the extra dimension Einhorn just seemed a suitable horse like piece for that roll. x42 |

NO, not sure I even seen a 3d chess board in person.
But 40 years ago a few of us invented a new 4 player chess game using a complete chess board witha half board extendingfrom each side making a cross +. It could be played two on two or every player agaist each other.
If you look on wiki there are many variations of chess. |

For those who wonder what this is about, I built my own set (and wrote my own rules) earlier this year: link I've played it quite a bit, and it makes for an interesting and uniquely challenging chess experience…especially when the little boards are moved! |
