How to play MegaChess

[@veggiet2009]

Interesting, but I'm not sure I like the staggered "triangular" nature of the board... I do like the pawns move

[@youuuuuuuuuuutube]

I like it.

[@HSmarkus5]

its just like 3 player chess with extra steps

[@carealoo744]

I love 3 player chess

[@versuzzero5335]

3 player chess with square spaces.

[@pairot01]

this is 3 player chess. Using a cool board geometry to offset the imbalance.

[@AnthemsOfEurope]

@@pairot01 standard 3 player chess is played on a special round board, so there is no imbalance

[@galuhputri5763]

What about 4 player chess?

[@theomelettecuber5458]

A different take of 3 players chess with more complicated pawn moves.

[@isaac_aren]

Seems like white has an advantage in that position. For example the knights on the far side of the board can't threaten white without moving a lot

[@gameingtothemax6266]

there's a fourth option for when a player gets eliminated- the player continues playing, but they can't win so they either act as a force of chaos or towards a draw. than a fifth option of the player that eliminated the other player taking over the eliminated players pieces.

[@BoBoN4Uto]

3rd eliminated player when it's stalemate: let's call it a draw

[@Shees6481]

Back the chess video maker !!!

[@UltraFG5488]

For the rule about not being and to kill a king if another piece moved out of the way does that time also apply to 3-player chess?

[@Local_Lad]

The rules are the same as regular chess except they aren’t the same as regular chess

[@leonardovergara5620]

Superb! But the pawns should not be able to move backwards.

[@dsargus3]

"Pawns not being able to going backwards" means that the two diagonal arimies can only go towards white or to the other diagonal army, so only 2 directions to move with their pawns. Going the third direction is going backwards, technically. White doesn't have that issue and has more movement options then the other two, making it unfair.

[@neofoxboi]

All jokes aside, the graphic design on the back of the box is really something else. It's completely wrong by most design standards, but the nostalgic factor is too strong to deny.

[@matthewjacobs4042]

MegaCheckers: Probably the next video.

[@mauer1]

what if the pawn went to the left of the red pawn. there were 2 pathes to go there. would red still be able to capture?

[@veggiet2009]

I would assume that the all moves by pawns are now Omni-directional

[@elmodelo101]

Good video, thank you 👍. I remember there is a version of chess in which the pieces where in hexagons instead of squares, please make a video about that. If I remember right, the name was hexagonal chess, or something like that. Thanks for your time.

[@zachnado69]

he already did make those videos

I’m trying to imagine 5d mega chess with multiverse time travel

[@spike333s3]

The background is like space. The board is like spaceship. I thought this is "Spaceship" Chess.

[@F1e308]

Mega Checker?

[@thegamesninja3119]

Legacy I see! I owned it years ago.

[@llxlliexfairy]

Checkmate = resign Resign = checkmate

[@jinyulee467]

in effect, the pawns have become wazirs that capture like a ferz.

[@LeotheTiger1234]

There should be options for red or black to be the color that is horizontal and not diagonal.

[@Zonedragon]

just swap em and continue playing.

[@LeotheTiger1234]

@@Zonedragon Ask a silly question. How embarrassing!

[@rogerkearns8094]

Nice if it's a quiet night at the club and only three turn up. (Or any odd number greater than three, now that I think about it.)

[@veggiet2009]

How would this work with 13?

[@rogerkearns8094]

@@veggiet2009 _How would this work with 13?_ One way would be ten playing normal, two-player, games and three playing MegaChess.

Chess but crazier.

if you don't want the 3 player chess board, this is a very good alternative.

Does this mean pawns can move like a king

[@bluerobpacure415]

play this if you have free time just to get crazy. rules cant still sink to my brain very complex for starters.

[@mburg33]

Please do duck chess with a rubber ducky

[@gamelover4807]

Please do Mega Checkers.

[@TripleSGames]

It is coming soon...

[@davidguthary8147]

If an eliminated player's pieces are left on the board, can they still contribute to check or checkmate?

[@1oo1540]

Do recursive chess aka the real mega chess

[@EdKolis]

Recursive chess? Like every time you want to capture, you have to play a game of chess to determine if the capture succeeds?

[@janwarrenbunoan3795]

_Hasta la vista_ is not allowed.

[@vitex198]

What on earth is that box...

[@b.k.5667]

Seems less balanced than the other 3 player versions tbh
