===Board===
Regicide being played on a circular playing field isn't an uncommon configuration. It is divided into segments, each of which made up of nexuses conjoined by the curved lines that gives the board its shape. Six spokes jut from the main nexus, the core.{{Fn|4}} Some consider the the circular board to be the classic.{{Fn|9}}
A regicide board of fine quality might be carried in a heavy, brass-bound box. The board itself might be made of a fine wood on which the field is picked out with thick, silver wire. The playing pieces can be simple wood, artfully carved stones, or whatever else is on hand to adequately replace a missing piece, such as an [[autogun]] shell casing.{{Fn|7}}
