< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 3 OF 3 ·  Later Kibitzing > Jun-23-07    ughaibu: Alice chess is a nice game. Genuinely interesting variant. Jun-23-07    2021: How about Monster Chess? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monste... Jun-23-07    2021: Also there is Patrol Chess http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrol... Jun-23-07    2021: Here is some more: Checkers Chess http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checke... Checkless Chess http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checkl... Knight Relay Chess http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knight... Jun-23-07    2021: If you want all of them, here they are: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_... Jun-23-07    WarmasterKron: <2021> I've played both Knight Relay Chess and Three Checks Chess. The latter is surprisingly tricky. Jul-18-07    Sibahi: if you want most of them (which are much more than the wiki article), have a look at http://www.chessvariants.org Aug-04-07    Ed Trice: I like Gothic Chess personally :) http://www.GothicChess.com Aug-20-07    arunjangity: ok, i give up...what is it??? http://www.chessbase.com/news/2007/... Aug-20-07    WannaBe: That's what happens after you've drank about a dozen glasses of those yellow liquid! =) Jun-15-08    Xeroxx: This opening should be applied more often by white because white wins 65.0 per cent of the games! Sep-24-08    just a kid: Maybe Kramnik or Leko should take up this opening more often. Oct-11-08    ThePawnOTron2: The best of all is obviously ThePawnOTron2 Chess, where captured pieces can be placed on the board by the player whose piece was captured? --ThePawnOTron2 Jan-02-09    WhiteRook48: what an opening!! Jan-15-09    GrahamClayton: Edward Winter mentions in "Kings, Commoners and Knaves" (Russell Enterprises, 1999) that there were several games in the 19th century where one player would remove their Queen, but would receive extra pawns as compensation. There are multiple games with one player receiving 8 extra pawns, plus 1 game where the player received 9 pawns - General Guingret v L Kieseritzky. White had extra pawns on c4, d4, e4, f4, g4, b3, c3, f3 and g3. Jan-15-09    TheaN: Knight mate: http://www.chessvariants.org/diffob... RULES: Same as orthodox with these changes: 1) On b1 and g1 there will be a White King and on b8 and g8 there will be a Black King as regular Kings without the King's characteristics. They cannot castle, may be attacked, the attack does not have to be negated and they may be captured as normal pieces. 2) On e1 there will be a White Knight and on e8 there will be a Black Knight as regular Knights with the characteristics of a King, although they move as Knights. They may castle where orthodox rules apply, an attack on them must be negated and they may not be captured. 3) Pawns cannot be promoted into Knights and may promote into Kings. 4) As in orthodox chess, an attacked Knight is in checkmate when the attack cannot be negated and the checkmated players loses, and if a player cannot move when he is not in check will result in stalemate with a draw. This variant can be immensely complex as one, the King's value cannot be easily disputed, two, Knights are easily checkmated and three, in the beginning it might be completely counterintuitive to move with Kings and let the Knight stay put. I enjoy this one from time to time. Jan-15-09    kellmano: Reading this page has given me a hunger to play some chess variants. The only one I have really played at all is chess960 Jan-29-09    patzer of patzers: Does anyone have/know where I could easily access opening theory on pawn and move (also possibly pawn and two) games? I recently played a game giving pawn and move, and responded to 1.e4 with 1...e5??? It was only by luck that my opponent didn't see the devastating 2.Qh5+... Jan-29-09    Phony Benoni: <patzer of patzers> Well, if you're not talking about <recent> therey: http://books.google.com/books?id=LC... Jan-29-09    patzer of patzers: Thanks, <PhonyBenoni>, once again you provide another solution to my trivial chess needs! Unfortunately, I don't have much time to look at that document, but I will, perhaps, consult a little bit of it each day. I do already know that 1...c5 (as played by Philidor) is a blunder, dropping a second pawn, so I won't need to study that... Feb-18-09    WhiteRook48: think I'll play Knightmate or pawnstorm Feb-19-09    WhiteRook48: patrol chess is a bit risky for me, though Feb-26-09    WhiteRook48: I'd want to play Four-way-chess Feb-28-09    WhiteRook48: too bad only premium members can do the upcoming Fischer-random Oct-28-09    randomsac: There is only one variant game in this database that NN has won. It was one of the Fisherrandom games played on the internet. Jump directly to page #    (enter number from 1 to 3) < Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 3 OF 3 ·  Later Kibitzing >
