Dragon chess

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dragon chess is a three-dimensional fantasy chess variant created by Gary Gygax. The description of the game was first published Dragon Magazine N.100 (August 1985). The game is played on three 8x12 boards stacked on top of each other - the top board represents the sky, the middle is the ground, and the bottom is the underworld. The pieces are characters and monsters inspired by the Dungeons & Dragons setting: King, Mage, Paladin, Cleric, Dragon, Griffin, Oliphant, Hero, Thief, Elemental, Basilisk, Unicorn, Dwarf, Sylph and Warrior.
