Overview: This is a TRTS (Tactical Real-Time Strategy) Multiplayer Chess Game —where players can move simultaneously, and every second counts. Experience fast, tactical, and unpredictable chess battles on Square and Hexagonal boards , with support for Free-for-All and Team modes for up to 8 players per match . No waiting for turns. No downtime. Just speed, strategy, and tactics —all happening in real time. Description: 🎮 Playable Now (Early Access Features): Simultaneous Movement Gameplay: All players make their moves at their own pace, only needing to wait for their units to complete their movements before issuing new commands. Square and Hexagonal Boards: Switch between two board types and multiple board layouts for different strategic and tactical challenges. Free-for-All and Team Modes: In FFA mode, capturing a player's King results in all of their remaining units being transferred to the capturer. Additionally, any units that the defeated player had previously captured are released back into play under the capturer's control. This mechanic helps maintain balance and fairness by preventing a player from being unfairly eliminated simply because they were targeted by multiple opponents.
