Be afraid, be very afraid...

Terror Chess is a Large Chess Variant played on a 11x11 board.

All the standard chess pieces in Terror Chess move in the same way they do in normal chess. The additional pieces of the Cardinal, Marshall, and Terror are all well known chess variant pieces. I have graphically depicted the Terror in consistent manner as the Marshall and Cardinal, which makes Terror Chess very easy to learn and play for anyone who already knows standard chess.

The idea behind Terror Chess came to me after playing some other large chess variants which used the Marshall and Cardinal with the standard chess set. Games like Capablanca's Large Chess thus have pieces representing all dual combinations of the three basic piece movement types: bishop movement, knight movement, and rook movement. Terror Chess adds in the Terror, which combines all three movement types.

Please send me any bug reports or thoughts about the game. I have only played this against Zillions at this time, and would be glad to have some opponents for testing purposes.
