I have been playing the computer in Exotic chess this afternoon, when I found it while going through Hexagonal chess. I find it very interesting and a good game too. You can choose you're pieces there are loads to pick from. Here are the pieces below. The piece that I find most intriguing is the fortress, because it can move absolutely anywhere on the board, but can not capture other pieces! This piece would be used for blocking purposes, or for putting in your opponents way.

	Royal Knight	Checkmating this knight wins the game.
	Scorpion King	Royal piece, king plus grasshopper
	Flag	Non-moving royal piece.
	Eagle King	1,0 or 2,2 jumper. Royal piece.
	Royal Castle	Royal piece, moves as rook, non-capturing, may not castle, cannot cross check
	Priest-King	Royal piece, moves as bishop, non-capturing, may castle, cannot cross check
	Pawn	Moves one square forward, or two when starting on the second rank. Captures one square diagonally. May capture another pawn that has just moved two squares en passant. Promotes on eighth rank to any non-royal piece.
	Guard	As king, but not royal
	Fish	Like ordinary pawn, but can move (not capture) one backwards.
	Berolina Pawn	Like ordinary pawn, but captures forward and moves diagonally
	Chinese Pawn	Moves and caputures straight ahead.
	Foot Soldier	Omnidirectional pawn, does not promote
	Defender Pawn	Can move any distance backward
	Recruit	One square forward, straight or diagonal. Promotes to Guard.
	Crab	Moves and captures one diagonal square forward, promotes as pawn.
	Gold General	From Shogi
	Silver General	From Shogi, promotes to Gold General on far side here
	Grunt Pawn	May also move but not capture sideways

	Chinese Knight	Cannot jump.
	Chinese Rider	Like an ordinary rider, but cannot jump.
