Special Rules

Chess + Dvorak

Draw five cards each and play as normal chess. Each turn, a Player may either (a) make a chess move, (b) play a card or (c) draw a card. (Cards aren't drawn automatically at the starts of turns.)

Taken Pieces

If a card says to place a taken Piece back on the board, but no such Piece has been taken yet, then the card has no effect.
