Introduction: Star Wars Holochess Board
While Lucasfilm never released official rules for the game R2D2 was cautioned to lose at, Dejarik is a real game. To play it you will need a Dejarik board and an assortment of monsters, and the rules, which are available online from Star Wars fans. Here's how I built my board.
Supplies
One crappy second hand clock, $4
Black and white paint
Pencil
Step 1:
Using masking tape and paper, mask off the rim of the clock.
Step 2:
Give the clock face a coat of white spray paint, then, using a compass and protractor, divide it into three rings and twelve segments. Every alternate square is black. Put on a podcast and carefully paint in the black segments.
Step 3: Add Monsters
Remove the masking tape, download the rules, get some monsters and you are ready to play!
