Some worlds have produced their own variation of regicide rules, an example being the world of Glavia.{{Fn|11a}} Double regicide is another variation. It features two boards in parallel, one played backwards using militants as crowning pieces, the other played long with sentries wild and a freedom to regent-up on white-square takes after the third sequence of play.{{Fn|11b}}
→Rules of the Game
Many variations of regicide have been played throughout the Imperium across its history, with variations including the use of 'hooded' pieces, which play as a different piece until revealed.{{Fn|4}} A ‘hooded’ board meant that several pieces, predetermined before the commencement of the game, were held in reserve. When deployed, such pieces would remain hidden, represented as lowly Citizens, until such time as they turned or killed another piece.{{Fn|4}}
Some worlds have produced their own variation of regicide rules, an example being the world of Glavia.{{Fn|11a}} The names of the game pieces can also vary as much as the rules. For example, an emperor might be called a monarch and a citizen might be called a churl.{{Fn|7}}
Another common variation of regicide is [[Castles]] and dates back to before the [[Great Crusade]].{{Fn|10}}
