Battle Chess – a computer game with animated three-dimensional graphics, that was originally developed by Interplay Entertainment in 1988 for the Amiga and then to many other systems, such as 3DO Interactive Multiplayer, Acorn Archimedes, Amiga CD32, Amiga CDTV, Apple IIGS, Apple IIe, Atari ST, Commodore 64, MS-DOS, FM Towns, NES, MacOS, NEC PC-9801, X68000 and Microsoft Windows.

Everyone who’s ever had a knight take a pawn, has seen that capture as more than one piece replacing another on the board. In players’ minds, the bold knight, resplendent in his armor of silver or ebon, sallies forth and slays the foul foot soldier. Combat, mortal combat, lies in the heart and soul of chess, but this aspect of it could only live in the mind’s eye.
