[net.chess] 3-D Chess

rccall@dartvax.UUCP (R. Christian Call) (04/29/84)

C. H. O'D. Alexander, in his book "A Book of Chess", describes
a version of three-dimensional chess and gives the rules.  In
his variation there is a new kind of piece introduced -- the
Unicorn.  It works something like a 3-D knight, I believe.
He also gives the rules for several other variations of
chess -- if you're interested in such things, you might
want to find a copy of the book.
