Well. For startters I surely have never heard of snakes an ladders. And have to admit, it sounds terribly dull.

But anyways... I agree with Selmo. ME propably has some games that are like chess, but are not chess.

People have invented the tridimensional chess seen in star trek having been inspired by it. Any ideas for ME chess? It'd have to be different in consept as well as in makeup. For in the history of ME the great battles usually were not even, and abstract strategy has to have 2 identical sides and chances for win. (Otherwise the game will not live historically long. Take two MASTER LEVEL chessplayers... give either one one soldier more then the other has and he wins every time... if he does not, he's not master.)

Ideas anyone?
