Would like to hear comments from long time game owners. Also, there would be discounts for chess clubs or educational institutions. Attachments:

Hi ,The game sounds really good, but not played it yet. I think you should explain the objective of the game first! Like how do you win? Is there two winners and one looser? When you mate one opponent, what happens next?

Hi Tony,,the first one mated goes out, then it's between the last 2. The first one out's pieces stay on the board. They can be captured to occupy the space.

Hi Clif, Thanks for the reply, I thought it would be something like that. But does it explain it in your rules of the game?
Cheers.....

Thanks Tony--I'll make a point to clarify that on the "game overview" page on the website.

Never played the game myself but i've been intrigued by it for many years ever since i saw it on ChessUSA. Still in my opinion i can say it looks like it'll work better than the other odd board shaped like a letter Y.

Hey! Just got our order a few days ago and played it with my brothers. It was great! Certainly different - the diagonals were a bit tricky - but we we were watching our back by the end of the game.
I think it will be hours of fun! Thanks.

Thx, can't wait to try this.
I suppose there's not much that can be done if two players gang up on the third. They will have to battle each other at the end though.

Looks very interesting! Three is definitely company now!

It seems like an interesting variation, but... Why not call it "three-player chess"? Or "three-way chess", or "three-person chess" or anything else that didn't exclude half of the world's population?

Certainly no exclusion was ever intended . "Man" represents all "Mankind".

i just thought of something.
what if White's pawn gets to the 1st space next to gray/Black's creek and an opposing pawn is on the other side. can it cross and capture? what if it is going across the corner of a bridged moat to promote and capture?

Hi, in the rules/creeks it does mention that once a pawn passes across the center, it no longer must recognize creeks, so once across the creek, it's just like other pieces. But no piece can ever capture or check across a moat horizontally, or diagonally across the corner whether it is bridged (open), or unbridged (closed).
