Balkan States

YOU HAVE THE POWER OF ASSASSINATION. The countries of the Balkan region have constant conflict and one of the highest assassination rates in the world.


Starting configuration for Balkan States

At the start of your turn, if you have at least three pieces in play, you may target any enemy piece in your 4x4 area and roll a six-sided die:

  1. You misfire. If any of your pieces is horizontally or vertically adjacent to the target, it is destroyed; otherwise, nothing happens. If more than one of your pieces are adjacent, you choose which piece is destroyed.
  2. If the target is a pawn or knight, it is destroyed.
  3. If the target is a pawn, knight, or bishop, it is destroyed.
  4. If the target is a pawn, knight, bishop, or rook, it is destroyed.
  5. If the target is any non-royal piece (including special pieces), it is destroyed.
  6. The target piece is automatically destroyed. If it is a royal piece, you checkmate its owner.

      First appearance: Nonfinalist in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd design competitions, added to official rules by committee decision.
