Please help me out!

I’m making a new variant where I want to turn off checks, but how do I do that in the custom game settings? Am I missing it or smth? Please help.

Fog Labyrinth is a maze that has zombies, many blocks that form a maze, and a small space where Red and Blue are.   Rules: The team looks empty, but I'll update the variant soon.  

Which one is the best?

Very hard puzzle!https://www.chess.com/variants/tinyhouse

So I have an idea, where a royal amazon vs a normal army

The first one to checkmate the opposite king wins!

this is a stupid thing :/

Out of curiosity, how does one make a board that is balanced for both sides (ex: such as one to make white going first not unfair for black in some way?Asking in regards to the custom pieces (that I may or may not be bad at using well)

this is the second series of the trend. im still confused that what the admins are thinking about if they are truly active.

what do you like best x1

the colorblindnesses. also new guys we appreciate you to send spam(oops, i mean ,good discussions) such questions here!

I'm assuming that admins are muting me but i have no reasons. jk warned me months ago so this is only a warn ig

How to play then? Как играть, если нет ботов?

HI, I'm trying to make my own chess variant, and I need a type of piece which can't be moved. Does anything like that exist?

You guys know how to fix it, when you want the red and yellow king on the left side? When I castle as red, its reversed, i mean King and Queenside Castling.

A while back I was feeling bored of how similar regular chess games tended to be, so I created a chess variant which I called Siege Chess, I don't know if the name is already taken, but this is what I am going with for now. It has a working basic website at siegechess-net where people can play it.The game also has an official discord server that people are free to join. Link can be found on the main page of the website. The game can be up to 6 players, though you may need to make the board big enough.It also has a bot player in case you can't really find others to play it with. The bot isn't that good at the game though, no matter what difficulty you choose - it is good enough that you should have to at least try. The game kinda flows as follows: Someone chooses the size of the board, and how many mountains(a basic obstacle) there will be. People then take turns placing a fortress on the board, followed by their king, and then an asynchronous phase where people purchase a starting army based on 30 gold Then people play the game and try to checkmate each other. During the game, players get 1 gold per turn unless their fortress is being threatened, and they can use this to spawn pieces as an alternative to moving a piece. Pieces can only generally be spawned in a radius of two around the fortress. To win, you have to checkmate opponents like regular chess - except there are two options. Checkmating the king is identical to as it is in chess, checkmating a fortress involves threatening it with three pieces, and the opponent having no response for that. That's pretty much it, I've played it against a few friends and they seemed to enjoy it. I made the variant to significantly expand the variability and to reduce the feeling of sameness that can happen. Position memory won't really help as much for this variant as it relies more on heuristics and general chess strategy I find. If you have questions or feedback, feel free to leave a comment.

Green is "checkmated" when it's not check.Green has royal sign on both the Amazon and king
