1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Timecontrol 45 sec Gamerules 11-12-check, Fatal Capture, Capture the King, Sideways Promotion Grasshopper, Knight on the 12th rank Note FINAL VERSION Notes: This is a unique variant I made. This has 2 zombies, yellow and green. Yellow is a pusher so it moves the pawn but sideways because of Sideways Pawns. Green will try and check you. Because of Fatal Capture, capturing is not allowed but you can use your royal to check. The grasshoppers are used to check your opponent but they never move. Shoutout to @noahfavelo for spotting one of the glitches with the old version. Have fun and good luck! With the final version, I modified it slightly so Red has 11 lives instead of 10. Thanks @TestPC1, @MapleSyrup4444 and @HenryJonasChess for pointing this out.

The KOTH squares are in the middle, why did blue get KOTH without getting to the middle? If this is a bug, can you please fix it?

I have a feeling this might not work, so sorry if it doesn't. I literally have done a single testing game so far, just wanted to put it out there to see if anybody thinks it's a good idea.

I self-declined this because of the 3 fold repitition. I realised that there was 3-fold repitition so I made this to reduce that: https://www.chess.com/clubs/forum/view/wof-scacchi-atomici-remake

When Green pushes his pawn to checkmate, why is is a draw, and how do we make it so the checkmated player loses?

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Timecontrol 10 min Gamerules Sideways Promotion Chancellor, Archbishop, General, Knight-Rider, Queen, Xiangqi Horse, Wildebeest, Dragon Bishop on the 10th rank Note The original idea of this game was to emulate Cavalier Chess on chess.com. However Cavalier Chess has promotion rules which simply are not available in the variant editor. It also has the weakness of the Nightrider being able to immediately exchange for a Xiangqi Horse. So now there are Wildebeest and Sergeant Pawns. The Nightrider also came back into the game with the Sergeant Pawns for it to hide behind in the starting position. There is also a non-royal General allowing for a Sergeant Pawn to promote to a General. Finally it is a Crazyhouse variant.

I don't think I've shared this idea with the community yet, but I came up with an idea for a chess variant a while back called Double Royalty Chess. The position looks like this: Both kings are royal in this variant, but otherwise, it plays like standard chess. The pawns on d3 and e3 can only move one square on their first turn, as well as their subsequent turns. Also, this position breaks Stockfish. Stockfish ended up hanging a queen once in a game from this position. It had actually realized it hung a queen on the next move, and ended up getting checkmated, despite only considering one king royal.

I know I'm a noob for asking this but I still don't get it

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Timecontrol 3 | 2 Promotion Off Note Not fair at all.

This is a variant I have played OTB and wanted to post. However, it involves white making two moves on their turn (white has king+3 pawns, black has entire army). Is this idea possible? If not, I recommend making it a feature, it makes for fun games.
