Our first challenge is brought to us by the guy who came up with the idea of the challenge in the first place. Pyrandon posted a bunch of great ideas, and I'm going to use this one as a launching point for the monthly mapping challenge. I hope you all enjoy!

King Valdric of Thew loves strategy games. It is widely known throughout the kingdom that his sense of strategy is unrivaled on the battlefield, and many attribute that to his addiction to a game conceived by one of his most trusted generals.

"Pikes" is a game that consists of a game board, and game pieces. It is your task to map out the game board, and give us a vision into the game that is worthy of capturing the attention of a king.

Guidelines:
  • Entry must be presented as a game-board that involves game-pieces.
  • Bonus consideration for showing game-pieces either on the board or off the board.
  • Bonus consideration for creating reasonable playable rules for the game.


Be sure to read the rules thread before posting your entry thread.
