Lesson 12: Mini Chess

(Single Player) - The Queen's Dinner Party
This game is played on a 4x4 board (use a quarter of a normal board).  It is not a battle but a peaceful dinner party with laughing and dancing - and so no attacking or killing takes place..only dancing (moving)!  All pieces (except pawns as they are not invited) from both armies are placed randomly onto the 4x4 board (except the other Queen who does not arrive as she did not want to come to her rival's party).  This leaves one empty square in the 4x4 board.

The aim of the game is to get the one Queen to the edge of the board...without killing anyone!

(Two Player) - Baby Chess
The board is a 5x5 grid - using about half the size of a normal army. Pawns at front as per usual and back row is set up as shown. All other rules apply. This game is good for a quick battle or skirmish.
