I'm impressed by the fact that this game rose above the expectations I initially had when I saw that it was played with dice. I haven't been very impressed with other dice games, such as Vegas Fun Chess. But this game seems to be better thought out and looks like it will require more skill than some of its cousins.

This is an interesting way to add some element of chance to the game of Chess, as well as some additional strategy; you have to not only figure out possible continuations, but also what the chances are at each stage. But, your rules are simple enough that it is not hard at all to determine the probability of being able to move any given piece. It also has the nice side-effect of leveling piece values.
