Aeroplane Chess Instructions
Objective
Be the first player to move all four of your planes to the last space at the center of the board.
Gameplay
1. |
Each player takes turns rolling the die. |
2. |
Once rolled, the player can choose which of his/her planes to move. Only planes which have left the hangar can be moved. |
3. |
The selected plane will move the number of steps shown on the rolled die. |
4. |
In order to move a plane out of the hangar, a 6 must be rolled. |
5. |
If a player rolls a 6, he/she gets another turn. |
6. |
If a plane lands on another plane of a different color, that bottom plane is returned to its hangar. |
7. |
If a plane lands on a space that is the same color as the plane, that plane can jump ahead four spaces. |
8. |
The game board contains 4 shortcuts, one for each player. If a plane lands on the space where the shortcut begins, that plane can fly across the board bypassing numerous spaces. |
9. |
When a plane lands on the last space at the center of the game board, that plane is removed from the game. Note that a plane must actually land on that last space. If it exceeds the last space, it will start moving backwards. |
10. |
Once all of a player's planes are removed from the game, he/she wins. |
