When a king is taken, the player continues with his other pieces as normal. When long enough, nothing interesting has happened in the game, the players should decide on ending the game, and pieces are paid out. Modern variant At least until the end of the 19th century, a variant of 4-handed Chaturanga was played in several parts of India. The game is played without dice. Pieces move as in the games described above.
Players form two teams of two players.
Red and yellow form a team, and green and black form a team. Kings are not exchanged. The first team that has taken both opponents kings wins the game. Some rules are not clear. Written by Hans Bodlaender.
