I believe that this is because of the "Spell Chess" update, and somehow caused old games to go haywire. It really doesn't matter now, because the past is the past.

Chess.com made me redo this 5 times becuase it would delete my progress in the post 😭 Game Title: Abridged Chess Promotion:Amazon on Default placement.

new pieces

Lots of people want to make NCVs or WoFs that involve two players fighting to overcome a zombie. However, such games have no actual competition due to the teams rule (unless you make if FFA P4M and make the two players independent) and therefore cannot be accepted as NCVs or WoFs. So I think we could make a category called "puzzle" (better name suggestions are welcome" and have people post these games using this category. There will still be accept/declines and either 1. add "Puzzles" to the variants menu, or 2. have a rotation of puzzles every day, like WoFs. These games will be unrated for reasons stated above. The requirements are the same, except if it is too hard to test you could lower the games. I hope the CGAs add this suggestion!

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Timecontrol 1 | 3D Gamerules RB Teams, Fatal Capture, King of the Hill, Stalemate Loses Promotion Grasshopper, Queen on the 9th rank Note This is a game that requires knowledge of a lot of tactics. Usually, you can move a piece to put your teammate in a check. The opposing zombie MUST block the check himself or the taboo rule is violated. If it cannot, then it is said to be a stalemate, which in this case is a loss. However, other stalemates can occur if you don’t save your teammate from a trap in the top corners, or give him enough space near you, or let your other pieces get captured. Finally, aside from stalemates, there is a hill at the top that lies beyond two pawns on the 12th rank. To win by KotH, you have to get rid of the opposing non-zombie’s pawn and make sure the opposing zombie cannot also use that fatal capture to reach the hill. One key idea is to try and get your queen and dragon bishop located near your opponent’s half safely so those pieces can come back later to trap the opponent’s teammate’s amazon with the Fatal Capture rule. You may also notice that Blue has a dragon bishop for Green’s queen. However, Blue’s dragon bishop has more mobility at the start to compensate for this material imbalances. There are two promotion options: a grasshopper, which may be used for trying to attain a King of the Hill win, and a queen, which can be used for trying to stalemate players. Finally, “Sour Apple” refers to the one-amazon zombies, which your teammatemay help you out, but only rarely (the “sour” part of the apple). In earlier versions I tried different sergeant arrangements, but there was more chance that a sergeant could get stuck.

I was thinking of making a 1-player WOF (against bot(s)), would that be interesting or feasible? Basically, if you beat the bot(s), you would earn points, and if you lost, you would get zero. All the other WOF rules would apply, I guess

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Timecontrol 4 | 4 Gamerules 8-check Promotion Wildebeest on the 11th rank Note Pawns promote to wildebeest on the 11th rank 8-check, Torpedo Notes: I decided to enlarge my original variant to make it more complex and fun. I added rooks and bishops as defensive pieces, since they can’t maneuver around the X. I also added Xiangqi horses for a similar reason, though they are slightly more mobile. Watch out for the riders, as they can do a lot of damage.

Time control: I suggest 2 + 5 but you could do whatever. VERY IMPORTANT!! green has to start with 14 points so that if red gets killed by yellow then green dies. Optional text: red must win in 70 turns and can not kill yellow (SO many people tried to kill yellow as red!!!!) I find it hard for red to win if green players smart i may need to add checks. Hints: ~for red~ TRADE TRADE TRADE!!!! that will make you win try to trade with the least amount of moves, you can accept unbalanced trades with ease even if he gets two pieces as long as it did not take too many moves to get there you are ok. - the pass has one long diagonal, it is very important to try to put your elite(hawks and queens) troops there. - you can not kill yellow he is a game mechanic!! - you can not kill green with checks. - WATCH out if green sacs his king to blue you will lose, but you already have pieces by blue and since blue Is a checker it will not try to take green if possible. - MAKE sure that red doesn't be able to get his pieces into blues territory, this is an extra cost to opening the pass. - IF you want more space to attack green you can sacrifice some pieces by putting them under blues pawns to bribe blue to go and start checking yellow. this strategy will only work if you are ready to capitalize on the extra opening and fill it with pieces. - try to get your kings out of the way fast, preferably to take out greens advanced guard. - you always want to use your more powerful pieces, kings will get clogged up. ~GREEN~ - use the three kings to hold off red long enough to recruit more troops from the friendly countryside(promote the pawns) the more you recruit the harder it will become to get move troops. - you don't have to attack red to win, make him come to you. - if a red piece attacks your pawns in the middle you can kill it with the pawns. - don't be surprised if red opens up the other pass, be prepared to be spread thin. - this is capture the king so make sure you aren't being checked!!. - capturing reds pieces might hold him off for a while but not forever, still time gained will be of use. I was thinking this should be a Wof but there is almost no randomness with the zombies seeing that yellow only moves back and forth and blue only checks yellow or stays in his own place.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Timecontrol 45s | 5D Gamerules Giveaway, King of the Hill Promotion Queen, Bishop, Rook, Knight, King on the 8th rank Note Another giveaway wof, but it is based on the real life strategy game.

I understand that to submit an NCV we need to submit a picture of a position, however I was wondering what to do if I want to submit a custom variant, for which the starting position is random given how posting a single picture of the starting position might give the false impression that the custom variant has a single starting position rather than a range of possible starting positions. I also read about how the last testing game played is treated as the final version and 5 of the testing games must be of the final version. In the case of a random position variant I obviously would want multiple games to be used as examples for the range of possible positions for the variant given how a single game can only show one position. I would also want to show games showing the final version to be a representative sample of possible positions of the final version, which I suspect could easily get mistaken for multiple versions of the variant. So my question is how would I go about submitting a new variant, with a random starting position?

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Timecontrol 1 | 1D Gamerules 40pt Checkmate, 4-check, Fatal Capture, Capture the King, Sideways, Stalemate Loses Promotion Wazir on the 5th rank Note The royal pawn promoting to a wazir and moving along the same squares perpetually is the “spinner”, and what can clog it is Blue’s dabbaba-riders. Through several changes, I made sure nothing weird would happen in the game, and turned off the FOW rule eventually to make the game easier for my opponents to understand. One important feature of the position is the 4-check blue king, which may move randomly and hand a chance to a different player, but there is an important warning: if your royal pawn is obstructed and you checkmate Blue, then your pawn is permamently blocked and nothing can free it from the main part of the board. This would make it more critical to protect your pieces or you would be stalemated. What’s even worse is if your opponent causes a dead Blue piece to obstruct your royal and their own royal is not obstructed. Finally, Green plays randomly enough that he will likely take a small amount of your mainboard material, so be careful with the choice between capturing a zombie and a player. One final question: if this is accepted, can it be Fog of War?

Your goal is to be able to place your king down from the bank, however capturing is compulsory. At first it looks like a forced win but both players have their chance to win if they think correctly. Black won more than white when I was testing.

Hello! I haven't done this in a while. I have two new fairy pieces to submit, and I thought I'd run them by you guys first. 1: Amazon Rider (!) I think this one's been shot down by admins but I'll try. The amazon rider crosses an Amazon with a Knight rider. Worth 16 points. 2: Magician (@) Can go to ANY unoccupied square but can only capture like a king. Worth 10 points. I hope you like them! -TheCatDragon221
