Patent ID: 7347422

Claim:
A game piece comprising, in combination: a) at least eight potential direction indicators; b) wherein said at least eight potential direction indicators comprise c) at least one position- 1 potential indicator directed at substantially zero degrees; d) at least one position- 2 potential indicator directed at substantially forty-five degrees from said at least one position- 1 potential indicator; e) at least one position- 3 potential indicator directed at substantially ninety degrees from said at least one position- 1 potential indicator; f) at least one position- 4 potential indicator directed at substantially one-hundred-thirty-five degrees from said at least one position- 1 potential indicator; g) at least one position- 5 potential indicator directed at substantially one hundred-eighty degrees from said at least one position- 1 potential indicator; h) at least one position- 6 potential indicator directed at substantially two-hundred-twenty-five degrees from said at least one position- 1 potential indicator; i) at least one position- 7 potential indicator directed at substantially two-hundred-seventy degrees from said at least one position- 1 potential indicator; and j) at least one position- 8 potential indicator directed at substantially three-hundred fifteen degrees from said at least one position- 1 potential indicator; k) wherein at least one of said at least eight potential direction indicators comprises capture indicia; l) wherein at least one of said at least eight potential direction indicators comprises defense indicia; m) wherein each said capture indicia is permanently fixed to said game piece; n) wherein each said defense indicia is permanently fixed to said game piece; o) wherein none of said at least eight potential direction indicators comprises both capture indicia and defense indicia; p) wherein at least one said capture indicia and at least one said defense indicia are angularly spaced substantially forty-five degrees apart; r) wherein said at least one position- 1 potential indicator comprises defense indicia; s) wherein said at least one position- 2 potential indicator comprises capture indicia; t) wherein said at least one position- 3 potential indicator comprises capture indicia; u) wherein said at least one position- 5 potential indicator comprises capture indicia; v) wherein said at least one position- 7 potential indicator comprises capture indicia; and w) wherein said at least one position- 8 potential indicator comprises capture indicia.
