Welcome to the Wargame Chess site!
What is Wargame Chess?
Wargame Chess is a turn and activation-based tabletop wargame that uses a chess set, but also incorporates other gaming devices like dice and cards. The core rules to the game are a simple framework to support a variety of faction options. Understanding faction differences and interactions accounts for most of the game’s nuance.
Wargame Chess is not a variation of traditional chess - though it uses the same pieces and borrows some concepts from it, it is a wholly different game.
