Chess/Stratego Game with Network, C++

Rings of Power Rings of Power is turn-based fantasy chess game where two or four races vie to capture their opponent’s powerful, magic ring. Each side takes turns strategizing on which piece to move against an unknown enemy. As the opponent’s army is revealed, so to is the location of the ring. Once a Ring of Power is captured, the capturing army is infused with magical power, practically insuring victory unless of course their own ring is lost.
