Programming challenge: design a program that takes the number of players as N and simulates a martian chess game with a board of form {4,N} with 0 truncation, then limits movement to squares that are no more than four steps from the center point.

Please correct me if this is not possible, but it sounds cool.

Thanks for sending this - I have just been doodling these very things,
and it's nice to see a good catalog of them.
Something like {4,5} with 0 truncation could be interesting for a game
with pointing, since the spaces are square so you can continue a line
along them.

Maybe adjust quadrants to also be sections of a {4,5} tesselation? Could be tricky to draw, but amusing...
