📖 About This Game

A chess variant that provides a larger board (8x9) and adds another piece to the standard chess set: The Duke. The Duke can move 1, 2 or 3 spaces in any direction but is unable to capture in any adjacent space but can capture in the subsequent 2 or 3 spaces beyond that. The Duke may also jump over pieces to bypass them. The Duke starts at the King's side, opposite the Queen.
