If you get bored with the game you can always play with the pieces.

What would the pieces consist of? |
|
|
The gameboard would be a bit bigger than usual so the pieces are large enough to be played with separately. |
|
|
Each sides' pieces would consist of an Architect, a Foreman(perhaps in a pickup truck), DumpTrucks, Loader/Backhoes, Bulldozers, and a bunch of Shovellers. |

There's plenty of themes to choose from: Tonka (portrays standard modern equipment and is robust enough to be passed from generation of children to the next), Vintage (from the late 1800's, more display-worthy but still playable), and of course Army Construction Corps, which might be most apropos for a "war game". |

(I left the post simple because it's a simple idea and I have some standard chesspieces sitting on the shelf just taking up space) |

I award a bone of bitter disappointment. |
