- Cathi, Editor for NY State Empire Chess Magazine, shares her thoughts: "This innovative game elevates traditional chess gameplay by introducing captivating new dynamics. Discovered at the prestigious USATE Tournament, PlunderChess has quickly become a favorite among chess enthusiasts, both at home and within our local chess community."

Key Rules of PlunderChess® Play:
- "Plundering" happens when a capturing piece gains extra moving capabilities from the captured piece, strengthening itself. This enhancement is symbolized by colored "vests" overlaid on the capturing piece, indicating the acquired powers.
- The additional powers obtained via plundered vests can be used once in a future move only, adding a strategic layer to gameplay.
- Plundering is at the player's discretion and can be declined. Opting not to plunder may be wise if anticipating a counter-capture by the opponent.
- A colored vest banner signifies that the capturing piece possesses additional moving capabilities for one subsequent move, serving as a tactical indicator for both players.
