Although 4-square pieces are more medium range on a 10x10, which is nice - it allows short, medium, and long range pieces. I see players trying to set up clusters of pieces as attack forces on different boards and also trying to set up 'safe havens', connected areas on two or three boards, where a king or other piece can come for protection. I like all the possible interactions, and think it'd be a fun game. [Heck, I even have a preset I'd like to try out - and it does have rooks, bishops, knights, kings and pawns in it.] But this is a toss-out idea on the feasibility of 3-board directed Alice. I hope others will find it interesting and offer their own suggestions about Alice mods or 3-board piece sets. It's a proposal for a modest Alice variant that hasn't been officially written up and submitted. Has it been done before? [ie: is it worth writing up and doing rules for a preset or so?] I offered the expanded geometry and player-choice of 'Parton direction' [if you don't mind me adding another 'Parton' to the discussion] along with a question about what has been done along these lines before. I thought I saw something on Alice variants a while back, but didn't see anything on a first look. [Possibly what I saw or read about was an Alice'd 3D game?] And for my parton' comment, 'Good-bye for now' ;-) Enjoy!
