The equalizer dice make the game of chess closer to �equal� when one player's skill level is much higher than the opponent's. Sick of not having anyone to play because you are SO good at chess? Are all your friends so good you never have a chance to win? Or, are you just looking for a new chess variant to make the game more interesting? If so, you need a set of the Equalizer Dice! These are great gifts for chess clubs or to your aspiring chess player.
- Die #1: King, Queen, Bishop, Knight, Rook, Pawn
- Die #2: Queen, Bishop, Knight, Rook, Pawn, Pawn
- Player begins by rolling the pair of dice to determine which piece they may move. The player may move either of the pieces indicated on the two dice. A player who rolls doubles (the same piece on both dice) may play any legal move. If the pieces that come up on the roll are not legally able to move, the dice must be rolled again.
- Castling may be done when the move is legal and when the king, rook, or doubles have been rolled. A player who is in check can only play a legal response to that check (capturing the checking piece, moving the king, or interposing a piece)
