MINISTERS Chess
Company: Corinthian Games
Product Description:
MINISTERS™ symmetric chess employs a 9x9=81-squares folding board, 19.5”x19.5” with MINISTER™ pattern on one side and conventional chess on other. TWO games in one! 36 tournament size (3 3/4" king) impact plastic chess pieces. Cloth Chess bag and a vinyl roll-up board also included! The king is flanked by two queens, each called "minister", the historic name of the queen of chess, establishing symmetry about the king. Special Now $32.95. Seal of Excellence. The game simply adds the hitherto absent symmetry to chess. In the process it enlarges the battle field from 64 to 81 squares. The result is a powerful game with powerful armies, wherein each king is protected by a minister on each side; instead of the king's bishop-side weakness of conventional chess. It is highly educational, creating new interest in chess, and teaching that even today, 2000 years later, it is never too late to re-write history.
Interesting Tidbits:
Since no theory of openings has yet been written for Ministers™, now even chess champions can play by pure instinct, rather than by having to memorize the theory of openings. They also have a better chance playing against computers, since neither party has a theory of openings to rely on.
