what is OMEGA or WIZARD CHESS??????

Omega Chess is a commercial chess variant designed by Daniel MacDonald. The game is played on a 10×10 board with four extra squares, each added diagonally adjacent to the corner squares.[1] The game is laid out like standard chess with the addition of a champion in each corner of the 10×10 board and a wizard in each new added corner square.

Part of the reason for adding the new pieces was to equalize the number of jumping pieces with sliding pieces. The wizard was created specially to be a color-bound piece, an analog to the bishop. Because of the symmetry and four additional corners, Omega Chess creates new tactical possibilities, including the possibility of checkmate with two knights.

Pawn's first move, en passant and castling
The pawn can advance one, two or three squares forward, on its first move only. This is shown on the a-, b- and d-files, respectively.




Capture, promotion and movement (following the first move) are otherwise identical to the pawn in standard chess.
The en passant rule also applies. A pawn that moves three squares may be captured en passant on either square, Thus, if d-pawn had just moved, it might be captured en passant by either black pawn. The b-pawn may be captured normally by the pawn on c4, and (if it had just moved) en passant by the pawn on c3.
Castling
The normal rules of castling apply. Also, it is done exactly as in chess, with the king moving two squares to either side: to h0 for White or h9 for Black when castling kingside; to d0 or d9 when castling queenside (see diagram).
