Description : chess variant inspired by a certain well-known science
fiction TV series
vulcan lets you play against the computer a chess variant inspired by a
certain well-known science fiction TV series.
The rules implemented by this program were created by Jens Meder, and
are described here: http://private.addcom.de/meder/3dschach/chess3d.htm
In a nutshell, here's the idea:
* viewing the board from above, you'll notice that some squares overlap.
* from that view, piece moves are the same as in regular chess, except
that you may choose which of the overlapping squares the piece will land
at.
* the movement of a sliding piece (bishop, rook or queen) is blocked by
a piece in any of the overlapping squares; the sliding piece may
land above or below the blocking piece.
* the small 2x2 boards (the "attack boards") can be moved to an adjacent
corner at the same level if they're holding just one piece, or to a corner
of a different level if they're empty.
The 3D models used in the program were originally created by Renzo del
Fabbro, and downloaded from the site www.3dcafe.com. As far as the game
author knows, they're in the public domain, but that must be clarified.
The game is going to be packaged inside the Debian Games Team.

Hello,
This is an automatic mail sent to close the ITP you have reported or
are involved with.
Your ITP wnpp bug is being closed because of the following reasons:
- It is, as of today, older than 365 days.
- It hasn't had any activity recently.
As this is an automatic procedure, it could of course have something
wrong and probably it would be closing some bugs that are not
intended by owners and submitters (like you) to be closed, for
example if the ITP is still of your interest, or there has been
some kind of activity around it. In that case, please reopen the
bug, do it, DO IT NOW! (I don't want to be blamed because of
mass closing and not let people know that they can easily reopen
their bugs ;-).
To re-open it, you simply have to mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
with a body text like this:
reopen 378996
stop
Further comments on the work done in the bug sent to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] would be truly welcomed.
Anyway, if you have any kind of problems when dealing with
the BTS, feel free to contact me and I'd be more than happy to help
you on this: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
A similar process is being applied to other kind of wnpp bugs.
Thanks for your cooperation,
-- David Moreno Garza <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
