    Description

    Arms Race is a chess-like abstract strategy game for two players, which uses dice instead of chess pieces.

    Each of the six faces of the dice match a chess piece:
    1 is the Pawn, worth 1 point
    2 is the Rook, worth 3 points
    3 is the Knight, worth 3 points
    4 is the Bishop, worth 5 points
    5 is the Queen, worth 9 points
    6 is the King, worth 13 points

    Pieces move and capture according to their chess counterparts, except they promote to the next number on the list when capturing.

    This creates a highly dynamic and ever changing game.
