RanaRangam reimagines chess as a tactical battle of health, attacks, and step-by-step commands. Instead of instant captures, pieces can be commanded to any valid tile and then advance one step per turn, turning movement, combat, and board control into a deeper tactical battle.
RanaRangam transforms familiar chess into a tactical battle where every piece has Health, attacks deal damage, and positioning can change the outcome of a fight.
COMMANDS CONTINUE
An attack does not always end in one turn. If the enemy survives, your piece can remember the command and continue the fight on future turns while you control the rest of your army.
COMBAT & INFLUENCE
Direct attacks deal damage instead of instantly capturing pieces. If the target survives, the attack can continue on future turns until the fight is resolved.
Pieces Support allies by restoring Health and Threaten enemies by dealing damage, based on the tiles they can reach through their normal movement.
ULTIMATIUM ABILITIES
Build Ultimatium by attacking and defeating enemy pieces. Spend it on powerful abilities that can turn the battle when used at the right moment.
Omni Blast:
Deals 150 damage to every enemy on a tile the caster could currently reach with its normal movement pattern.
Blitz Hop :
Knight-only. Trace a closed path of 8 legal Knight moves, returning to the starting tile. Every enemy landed on along the path takes 150 damage.
Judgement Chain :
Deals 150 damage to every enemy the caster can currently reach, then chains 100 damage to allies protected by those enemies. A piece hit both directly and by the chain takes both hits.
Built on familiar chess foundations, RanaRangam turns every match into a living tactical fight where movement, combat, healing, pressure, and timing decide who survives.
