Description Edit | History

This chess-like game was inspired by Shogi and themed around an anime style. Players set up the two different starter armies consisting of seven holy warriors, seven power-harvesting pawns and two power-harvesting uber-pawns. Fourteen warriors came with the starters, fifteen from the first expansion, and fifteen from the final expansion. Instead of the initial fourteen warriors, players may chose to draft seven (per side) of these 44 warriors which are summoned onto the board one-at-a-time during play. They can be promoted to more powerful chess/shogi style movement using power crystals. Many of these warriors have special magic powers (e.g., teleportation, resurrection, obliteration) which can be turned on by spending crystals.
One of the most exciting things about this chess/shogi variant is that there are multiple ways to win:
• Creating a mating solution that forces surrender - Capturing the Navia (She's like the chess/shogi king)
• Getting one's own Navia across and off the other side of the board
• Economic victory by attaining enough power-crystals for your Navia to blast your opponent off the board.

More Information Edit | History

Changing MOVEMENT is one of the dynamic features of the game. The piece is represented by the triangle on it's grid, and it may move to ANY YELLOW-SQUARE on its grid. YELLOW-SQUARE movement is UN-BLOCKABLE.
Some pieces attain unlimited ARROW movement which IS blockable. Dotted Arrowed movement allows your piece to IGNORE the first intervening piece as if it were not there. Some pieces are able to SACRIFICE themselves in order to attain a special affect.

The game is 'pronounced' as "Naaviah Draap" (without the t). People pronounce dratp many ways: rhymes with 1- tap, rap, map. 2- top, mop, pop. 3 tape, gape, grape. BUT if you want to pronounce it as the Japanese which sounds much cooler, try this: Navuia Dorappu (Nah-vwee-ah Doe-rah-poo) or just from the official instructions: (nah-vee-ah drap)

As an ABSTRACT game, both sides know all the powers of the pieces.

8 Player Aid for Starter sets' Maseitai
Picked up the starter sets on clearance and will be teaching another newbie. Made this since there is only one card per piece and picking up the piece each time you want to remind yourself of the ability is cumbersome. Will use with http://www.boardgamegeek.com/file/info/13989 and we should be good to go. Thought it might be of use for others with just the starter sets as well.
