The
Mission for each player:
Players 1
and 2- mission is to martial pieces to checkmate
each other's kings, as with conventional chess.
Player 3-
mission is to position pawns to prevent any pieces
being captured for a minimum of 20 moves.
Environmental
factors
In the online game: When no pieces are captured for 5 consecutive
moves, the chess board sprouts grass. If the pawns are successful
in their mission, the checkerboard is progressively overgrown with
4 different grasses, a more natural environment is reinstated in
the combat zone and the board becomes overgrown.

How
to play 3 Player Chess
Players
need to be familiar with the rules of conventional chess. However
you do not need to be a skilled chess player to learn this game.
White
moves first. In the online game a coin is flipped in the
Current Player window and displays a white king or a white pawn.
This decides who should take the first move...Playing with a conventional
board? just flip a coin.
Moves
alternate between black and white as with conventional chess.
Before
each move is made, a coin is flipped to decide whether a ruling
piece or a pawn should take the move.
The
assigned player takes their move.
If
5 consecutive moves are made without any pieces being captured,
the chess board sprouts grass.
When
this happens 4 times, the pawns are deemed to have created world
peace and the game is over.
