A set of cards depicting Chess pieces, and rules for 16 variants to play with them and a Chess set.
Components
In each of two colors (black and white)
- 2 King cards
- 2 Queen cards
- 2 Rook cards
- 2 Bishop cards
- 2 Knight cards
- 4 pawn cards
- 2 joker cards
That's 16 cards/side, for a total of 32 cards.
Karten Schach also comes with 12 black and 12 white chips, and a Chess set.
- Use the Chess mapping to assign cards to the pieces, one RD dice suit per side.
- Use 2 RD jokers with dark spots for the black jokers.
- Use 2 RD jokers with light spots for the white jokers.
- If you bought the recommended set of 25 chips in 6 colors to go with the Rainbow Deck, you can use 12 of two different colors for the Karten Schach chips.
- If you're caught without a Chess set, you can improvise one of those too, with two more dice suits and 32 random cards, as explained on the Chess page.
