Hextraction Chess Tiles

Turn your game of Hextraction into a game of chess!

The rules are a bit complicated, so I haven't even attempted to make rules cards for these...

Terms:

  • Move: remove this tile from the board and move it to a different slot
  • Capture: remove this tile from the board, remove another tile from the board, and put this tile where the other one was.
  • In Check: a King Tile is in check if another tile can capture it when it is triggered.

Each tile has a trigger: when a ball rolls into the central area of the tile, the tile can move or capture.

Pawn:

  • Moves up the board only
  • Captures diagonally up only
  • En Passant: if during the previous turn, a tile was placed in a third-from-the-top slot, and it is diagonally down from this tile, capture that tile, but move into the tile above the captured tile.
  • Promotion: if a pawn moves or captures into the top row, you may discard the pawn and Create a Queen tile in its place.

Queen:

  • Moves or captures up, down, or diagonally as many spaces as you want. Cannot move through other tiles.

Knight:

  • Moves or captures either up one tile and diagonally up one tile, or down one tile and diagonally down one tile. Can move through other tiles on its way.

Bishop:

  • Moves or captures diagonally as many spaces as you want. Cannot move through other tiles.

Rook:

  • Moves or captures up or down as many spaces as you want. Cannot move through other tiles.
  • Castling: may swap places with a king tile that is on the same horizontal position (not diagonally up or down, but directly sideways). Castling is allowed even if the King is in check.

King:

  • Moves or captures up, down, or diagonally, one tile at a time.
  • Cannot move to a position that puts it in check.

If any piece captures a King Tile, the player who moved the piece wins.

Limit for all tiles: you cannot place a tile that would cause a King Tile to be in check (this does not apply when moving or capturing obviously)
