= CYVASSE =
Cyvasse is a game from the book series A Song of Fire and Ice and the HBO series Game of Thrones. Players secretly set up their pieces and terrain tiles on their half of the 8x8 battleboard and once both players are ready play commences. Pieces move and attack in a fashion similar to Chess, white moves first  then black while other pieces impede your movement. Pieces capture other pieces by moving to occupy the enemy square and removing the enemy piece. Capturing is always the end of your turn. Whoever captures the opposing King first wins however there is no check as in Chess.
Tiles
Mountains x 4 (red)
This tile is impassable to all units except Dragons. Only Crossbowman may attack Dragons that are on mountain tiles. Players may not have more than two contiguous mountains. To prevent mountains from being built into impassable walls.
Water x 2 (blue)
Water stops a unit’s movement once they enter it. (That unit can not be moved next turn and must wait until that turn is passed before it moves again.optional) Trebuchets, Catapults, Crossbowman can not attack while they are in this tile.
Forest x 6 (green)
A forest tile diminishes a unit’s maximum range by one upon entering it. Catapult shot cannot penetrate forest tiles.
Fortress x 1
The King begins the game in the Fortress but once the Fortress is attacked and “ruined” the King is free to move.
Pieces
Rank    Piece                    Move                             Special                                             .
I           Rabble                   1          One block ranged ability that "ruins" home fortress.
II          Spearmen              1         *Blocks Cavalry.                                    
III         Crossbowman        1         Ranged attack one block radius.
IV         Light Horse            3         Cavalry  
V          Heavy Horse          2         Cavalry          
VI         Elephant                1          Cavalry        
VII        Catapult                 1         Two square range line-of-sight.    
VIII       Trebuchet              1         Three square range in the direction it was last moving.
IX         Dragon                  4          *Blocked by Forest, Fortress, and Trebuchet.
X          King                       2          Can capture or be captured by any piece but suffers
                                                        no terrain penalties.    
Ranged units can capture normally by occupying enemy square or using their ranged ability. *Blocked units can’t capture indicated pieces.

you can use alternate rules within my system:
-bidding set up as in thrones version by Chad Anthony Randell
-also you could just not move your piece next round if it's in water

alot of other rules can be implemented between players

Enquiry about rules Empty Sets of Cyvasse rules

Post by Anthony Appleyard Mon Apr 19, 2021 11:46 am

I have converted into .htm code two sets of Cyvasse rules that were made by Jeff. C. Caird, published by No Name Publishing. Is it allowed for me to put a link to them here?

There are Cyvasse resources on Facebook, but due to a technical fault I cannot access Facebook.

The rabble now has a ranged attack that only destroys it's home fortress, so players can unlock their king.
