3-Chess: Looking for 2 more players.

[InoxFy]

This is a simple game of 3 player chess. Take all the strategy involved in a regular 2-player chess and raise it to the nth power, this game is unpredictable and your enemy may become you ally at any point, and vice-versa. You can forge temporary strategic alliances, but be prepared to be backstabbed at any moment if you let your guard down. Don't hesitate to break alliances without warning, all is fair in love and war 3 player chess.

Every turn you select what piece you wish to move, and copy-paste said piece in it's new location with the image editting software of your choice while erasing it from it's previous location, filling the spot with the tile's original color.
The turn order will be Green -> Red -> Blue

Here is an image detailing the movement of the pieces

Yes, the bishop's movement is mindscrewing, try to imagine the board as 3 separate intersecting boards. It's quite intuitive once you can adequately visualize it.
Not pictured because I suck at paying attention to obvious details: The red knight can also capture the blue rook in this situation.

WELP I PROMISED

I'll pick green, but if someone else wants to go first, I'll take red.

Screw pawn moves

Also, I'm moving first :T

[El Ninja Monkey]

Woah wait do we have to edit the board ourselves? If so I can't play. I use my phone for everything. Guess I'm out.

[seastormjt]

I wouldn't mind editing the board if you could otherwise indicate where your next move is?

[El Ninja Monkey]

I should be Blue then so you can do both the moves at once.

Also your the best Seastorm.

[Kaynato]

Just ranked in state tournament. I'd be happy to participate, you willing, of course.

[seastormjt]

I think it would be fine if you moved second...

Also, it is your turn :P

Hm. Inoxfy, how bad would it potentially be to have two games at once? You may have more people interested than you thought.

[El Ninja Monkey]

Just let Kaynato take my spot.

[seastormjt]

Alright then...

Kaynato, your move.

Obviously, the standard kingpawn open.

3-chess is pretty different from normal chess though. Heh.

The more I look at it the more I realize how different 3-chess is from regular chess!

Quick question, but how are the pawns moving two spaces?

Quick question, but how are the pawns moving two spaces?

On their first move, pawns can move two spaces :3

[Kaynato]

Oh yeah, diagonals are colored, not according to dimension or vertex.

Arrrrgh.

looks like I don't have that free pawn after all, but I at least can DEVELOP.

Also, since the king is leftways and white is on the right as usual, we are all black. :x

Anyways

You know, someone's going to have to start sacking pieces. Otherwise, this is going to get insanely cluttered.

They say moving a Queen out early is bad.

I beg to pardon.
