I am not sure what game or games are refered by Mr. Montchalin, and this is the first time I hear about Rennaissance, but I think here are mixed two known games, both from the 60's decade: Ultima and Bombalot. It is not clear which of these games was first, but I think it was Bombalot but not by much time between. Bombalot is a chaotic game with elements of the actual Ultima, but with Bombs, a lot of extremely powerful leaping and multi-leaping pieces instead of Pawns, similar to those in Camelot, Coordinator-Knights that coordinate one with the other and vice-versa, Tanks (Pushers), and Immitator (different from Ultima´s Chameleon, Immitator can move as the LAST enemy piece moved), an exotic Immobilizer that can leap adjacent pieces or move like a King, and without royal pieces in the game . I have played Bombalot in the past, and I have to say that this is one of the most unclear and chaotic game I have played, I think the game was certainly exotic in its epoch and it could produce certain commotion, but it seems it was not well tested in the game play, horrible in my personal opinion. I have not reference to Renaissace or the Ultima versions mentioned by Mr. Montchalin, so I will appretiate if he can give me more information about, if it can be found elsewhere.
