So while I was showering I finally figured out what kind of game the Dragons like to play outside of combat sports. This idea has been bugging me since one of the things I'm writing for the Zmeian Compendium is a blurb on the Dragons and what they do outside of being the protectors and politicians of Frydar Island. So, I made a simple board game called the Game of War (sometimes known as the Dragon Game) which sees two Generals commandeering up to 256 pieces, called Soldiers, across an 8x8 grid with the goal of filling every square in the grid with at least one piece of either all red or all black pieces. I came up with a basic rule set and for fun I even threw in the customary way for Dragons to forfeit a game (it involves them violently throwing the board onto the ground while yelling "Earthquake!" and just making a mess). Wish I had a picture, but the game exists only in text form and, even then, it's very abstract. Consequently, please enjoy this picture of Fygoon with his friends.
Once I begin merchandising the hell out of The Frydarian Tale and all of the Zmeian Archipelago, I would definitely make a real Game of War board game. It'd be far nicer than that Alisian nonsense that is chess (ew).

Excellent. I look forward to it.
