Fugue. Based on Ultima and Rococo this game has pieces that capture in unusual ways. (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

You're right Mike, I forgot to take into account the triple repetition
rule. :( But other than that, it is (as far as I can see) a perfect
defense, even against a stronger force. I can see the wisdom of having the
triple repetition be a loss instead of a draw.

Well, anyway, I really do like this game -- the limited archer which
requires a spotter works really well and the pieces in general interact
well with each other. I especially like that the immobilizer has been
weakened by having more pieces which are effective against it.
