Has anyone archived the chess variant 'Schach des Macchiavelli'
published in the beginning of the 80ies in the german alternative
newspaper 'die tageszeitung' (taz)?

I remember the following facts: It was a 4 player variant on
a non-checkered square board. The central field was special:
If your royal piece was placed there, you had additional moves
after every other player's moves. Captured pieces are left as
corpses on the board. They could be moved only by a special unit,
the nekromobil, which was unable to capture.

Any hints are welcome.
