Anyone up for a game of Kazan Chess? Following are the rules:
After a piece moves, a friendly man who can move to the vacated square may do so and so on. Here's an example:
Anyone up for a game? I'll play either color.

1. e4/ Be2
Thanks for accepting.
I've moved.
2. d4
Question: if 3. Bf3 / Ne2 if this is followed by 0-0 the king is then on g1 (where the knight just left. Is this legal?
3. Bf3 / Ne2 / 0-0 / Re1 (this is the square that the king just left)
Sure, Go ahead. Is that your move?
3. Bf3/ Ne2/0-0/Re1
that was 3a Bf3 not Bd3
this is 4. Be3
1. e4/Be2 ... Nc6
2 d4 ... b6/Bb7
3. Bf3/Ne2/0-0/Re1 ... e6/Be7
4. Be3
%. Nd2
6. e5
my rook should have been at e1 not f1
7. Kf1/Ng1/be2/Ndf3/Qd2/Rad1
2. d4 ... b6/Be7
4. Be3 ... Nf6/0-0/Qe8/Rd8
5. Nd2 ... d5/Rd7
6. e5 ... h6/Nh7/f6/Rf7/Qf8
7. Kf1/Ng1/Be2/Ndf3/Qd2/Rad1 ... fxe5/Bf6
8. Bxh6/Qe3/Rd2/Bd1/Qe2/Be3
I have two questions with reguards to the rules and check.
First, if you produce check, does this end your turn?
Second, if you are in check, are you required to depart chek on your first move or is it sufficient to have escaped check at the end of your turn?
The rules don't forbid it, so I guess you could continue your turn after check and you don't have to get out of check until the end of the turn. I will make my move later today.
