If the cube says the king move and the king cannot move, it's a lose.
If the cube says some piece that cannot move, it's a ''passed move''.
Variant suggestion - Dice chess
Sort:
I think it would remove most of the strategy from the game. The main part of chess is anticipating and responding to opponents moves. If you remove that element the game depends too much on chance. A similar game is "No Stress Chess" which depends are drawn cards to move pieces. The name does not reflect on play...
My whole point is chess shouldn't be about luck. It is a strategy game.
