Asunto: Re:

Lawless: Six would definitely take the randomness out! However I am just trying to desribe a commercial variant that I played a long time ago in the 1980s. I never owned it and my memory may be a bit foggy. However foggy or not, with dice chess one still has to balance randomness with skill. With too many dice you might as well just play chess, and with too few there is no skill. One die seems too random for me, and those 4-move games published below must not have been that much fun to play for either side.
