Nice video and good game but a checkmate could've happened if the rook did not move 1 square down as the last move. At 1:10:16 in the video, it shows the blue king in the bottom left corner square and he is not attacking the rook so it would be fine to move the red king 1 square to the right horizontally and he is now on a light colored square and is no longer protecting the rook but after the blue king has to move 1 square up vertically and is attacking the rook again, the rook can be saved by moving the red king 1 square down but diagonally to the left so he is protecting the rook again so the blue king cannot take the rook and then the blue king is forced to move back at the bottom left corner square. At this point, a checkmate can happen for red by moving the rook 1 square to the left.
GAH!! had you moved your rook to C3 instead of your king. Blue would have been forced to move back to A1. You then follow up with a rook to A3. Checkmate.
Does anyone know if there was ever a version of this game that included the duck? I swear I remember asking my dad why the queen had a duck, but it could just be a false memory. (I was playing on a Mac circa 1995).
Funitarium I think the one you're talking about is one game made by Oxford Softworks who was making many "acting" chess game as a direct competitor of MicroProse/Spectrum Holobyte & Interplay chess games series.
@@beez1717 Yes, he does get out a rubber duck. The queen didn't want it. The bishop throws it behind himself, then provides flowers for the queen, who takes it without knowing of a poisonous scent coming from the flowers which kills her. The pulling out a gun and shooting them is when the king takes the bishop.
Merci beaucoup pour cette vidéo! Que de nostalgie! Je me rappelle y avoir joué quand j'étais gamine. J'adorais les animations, les musiques, etc.... ça fait maintenant 15 ans que je n'y ait plus joué et pourtant je me rappelle comme si c'était hier de chaque musiques, sons..... D'ailleurs en revoyant cette vidéo, je me demande comment on peut faire pour y rejouer (j'ai le cd DOS VERSION, 1993 mais pas moyen de faire démarrer le setup.exe sous mac ou sous windows 10 :( ).
+Nap'n'Retrogaming Merci! :) je vais voir si j'arrive à utiliser cet émulateur. Et ça marchera tant sur Mac (versions OSX) que sur les Windows 7/8/10 et + ?
+CyberHackerable07 Oui, il existe bel et bien une version mac et windows... Si tu n'as pas à l'aise avec les commandes textuelles, il y a aussi des frontends qui peuvent faire ce travail à ta place... Mais bon, si tu es à l'aise avec les commandes MS-DOS comme dans le bon vieux temps, c'est beaucoup vite y aller par commande que par frontend! :^)
Hi! I bought the cd-rom "BattleChess" in 1993. In addition to be a wonderfull game and an extraordinay cd-rom, it's a fond memory of my wife! Unfortunately, now it doesn't work! Now I have ubuntu 14.04. Can you help me, please, to make it working again? How can I do? I would be be, for me, the most beautifull gift from many years... thank you!
+Fernando Buscemi If you have the DOS version just use DOSBox (which is free does have a Linux version its webpage), if you have the Windows version use Wine for Linux.
+Nap'n'Retrogaming Thaaaaaaanks!!!! For now I can't prove, but when I'll be able to do it, I'll say you. Thank you very much! (I have the Windows version) - (Excuse me, for my english) Grazie, caro amico!!! ;-)
At 12:00 you would've had Checkmate if you used your queen to take the opposing queen. You would've ended right next to the king and he couldn't make any move to save himself.
+Anomaly188 If the red queen takes the blue queen, it's not checkmate because there is no other piece like a red bishop or a red knight protecting her, so the blue king can take the queen.
+racionais74 Yeah, i know. Instead of the red rook moving when it did, the red king needed to move 2 more times before the red rook can checkmate the blue king.
Nice video and good game but a checkmate could've happened if the rook did not move 1 square down as the last move. At 1:10:16 in the video, it shows the blue king in the bottom left corner square and he is not attacking the rook so it would be fine to move the red king 1 square to the right horizontally and he is now on a light colored square and is no longer protecting the rook but after the blue king has to move 1 square up vertically and is attacking the rook again, the rook can be saved by moving the red king 1 square down but diagonally to the left so he is protecting the rook again so the blue king cannot take the rook and then the blue king is forced to move back at the bottom left corner square.

I used to play this game when I was a kid. I was so impressed by it!
The queen has a slammin' body, but not such a great face. Looks great until she turns around.
She reminds me of Uma Thurman.
Played this alot as a kid
Too bad red didn’t know how to checkmate with rook and king.
These short musics are awesome
HOLY SHIT THIS GAME.
I remember playing this growing up! :D
God this game was soooo good! Still is!

Did you start playing this game of chess in 1991?
GAH!! had you moved your rook to C3 instead of your king. Blue would have been forced to move back to A1. You then follow up with a rook to A3. Checkmate.
This was my shit back in the day lol
Christopher Lambert plays this game in the film Knight Moves.
Wouldn't be surprised if the developers of Dawn of War got inspiration for melee finishing animation from this game.
Great, but it looks like it's another one of those games that just plays redbook audio for everything.
Don't tempt me! You are provoking me into a play and that can't be good. :-)
Cool chessboard & chess figures.

Wait, I just thought of something. So the pawns are obviously men, but if one gets across the board he turns into a queen... just a thought
Cool music. Cool video.

+CyberHackerable07 Tu peux utiliser un émulateur de dos. Celui que j'utilise personnellement est DOSBOX, disponible GRATUITEMENT sur www.dosbox.com/ .

34:25 "Whaaaat? You wench!" King don't take shit from bitches
My battle chess don't have sound and full animation how can I fix it ?
AHIM YUIRA You need the Enhanced CD version.
Oh my fucking god! You play like everyone else in my family. Instead of thinking while they’re moving you take 5 minutes to move a fucking piece
15:44 and thats why they invented the cup and crotchplate
this is how i learned chess ;)

wow this is so awesome.
i was playing on a pc with a cga card when i was at high school however the queen was giving me hard ons even on such terrible graphics resolution
Is there any way to speed up the animation?
go to youtube settings choose speed and press x2
I meant the speed of in-game animation, which turns out to be possible.
Move out of the fucking way, castle!
At 12:00 you would've had Checkmate if you used your queen to take the opposing queen. You would've ended right next to the king and he couldn't make any move to save himself.
I don't see what's preventing the King from taking the Queen in this scenario?
***** erm the king can kill her the next turn.
+Anomaly188 If the red queen takes the blue queen, it's not checkmate because there is no other piece like a red bishop or a red knight protecting her, so the blue king can take the queen.
Where i can download this game ?
AHIM YUIRA This game still being sold on Gog website.
that is the old one how about this one ?
They removed it from some reason... You still can look on Amazon (which the Enhanced version; this one) is available.
big miss play at the end lol
+racionais74 Yeah, i know. Instead of the red rook moving when it did, the red king needed to move 2 more times before the red rook can checkmate the blue king.

Uh oh... Time for Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots! (52:38)
es empate
Jesus. Like knights much? ;)
so if a pawn gets to the other side does it get a dress?
