Two in a row! Sorry, sorry. I think the *best* usage of Rectahexahexarect chess is to win bets. Introduce it to your 'friends', but change its name and leave out its origin. While they're struggling with their crib notes on piece movements and nigh impossible tactics, you're playing a variant of Alice hex chess where pieces can take pieces on the other board by occupying the corresponding square. (Use markers to show these 'ghosts') This requires correspondence play, of course.
