Dragonanga is a variant derived from Chaturanga, more focused on the dragon-bishop pieces as the strongest pieces rather than rooks / carriages. Origin Playing a lot of Chaturanga led me to create a variation of it such that pawns could promote by crossing centre, and optionally promote to a minister (Wazir) as well. This led for much more exciting and open Chaturanga gameplay, and is quite enjoyable to play. Upon discovery of the Dragon-Bishop piece, I decided to try utilizing them into the game and wound up with the current version of Dragonanga.more information here: https://www.chess.com/join/dragonanga Testing Games: www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/30033052 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/29393707 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/29233985 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/29983629 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/25602520 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/25603110 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/29845900 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/29813458 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/29233273 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26051437 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26196833 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26197023 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26232757 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26340245 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26340329 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26451276 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26472679 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26472876 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26473006 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26571434 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/26852957 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/27231395 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/29232965 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/29070273 www.chess.com/variants/custom/game/29069818 I've been playing this variant for over 6 months now; even extensively studied some opening theory. The gameplay is very balanced and flexible, and there are some nice tricks and traps. Testing Game 2 is my favourite example of the Elephant trap, a trap that reminds me of Queens getting trapped in the corner for taking a pawn or rook with haste in normal chess. I've discovered some very fun and unique theory and tactics playing this variant and I would love to see others enjoy it too.
how to turn off N-check for some players but not all ? last time i asked about setting different N-check but now show me how to turn them off but not all here is an example: I draw numbers as an example and how do I make this complete?
Why can’t I open variants? Whole screen is black and no more to load. This also happened on my old device, and it’s fixed after a LONGLONGLONGLONG…………time. I hope you’ll fix it! EDIT:To let you know, fixed.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Timecontrol 3 | 2 Gamerules Stalemate Loses Promotion Knight on the 8th rank Note Cross Derby is a fast-paced maneuvering variant where each player tries to be the first to smothered mate their opponent on 1 of 2 possible squares. Race to develop your knights and overwhelm your opponent's kingside to claim victory! --COMMON THEMES/TACTICS-- Deflection, Removing the Defender, Sacrifice, Outpost --POSITIONAL STRATEGY-- Each game usually progresses with each player's knights migrating to their opponent's respective kingside, leaving one or two knights behind to deal with any counterplay. Pawns are used as a defense or to gain space, and are rarely used as an attacking piece as they cannot win a player the game unless they promote or deflect one of their opponent's pieces. Moving too many pawns can hinder a player's initiative and create holes. --RULE EDITING/EXPLANATION-- Initially, I wanted to add bare piece rule so in the event that either player has only a king left, they lose the game instead of a draw due to stalemate. However, I discovered that stalemate rules take priority over bare piece rule, so the player with only a king left will draw regardless of any bare piece ruling. Thus, I replaced bare piece rule with "stalemate loses." This will mean that if players have only locked pawns left in a game, then the last player to move a pawn will win, but I feel this is fairer to the person who does not get stalemated than the previous ruling (this rule will affect the vast minority of games anyways). I also removed all promoting options except for a knight because I highly value the piece simplicity that Cross Derby offers and felt that other pieces would not impact the game enough upon promotion to introduce them to this variant. --UPDATE-- If this does get listed, is it possible to keep the colors as black and white for aesthetic as a personal ask? I know CGA changed the colors to red and yellow.

I'll cut right to the point: why isn't the variant Duck able to be rated? Like, I get that it's sorta luck based and sometimes the game is up to a certain player (and maybe there are larger problems*, I've only played like 2 games lol), but other variants like Fiesta, in which pretty much every endgame second place is up to whoever will end up in third, are rated. Also, if it's a separate rating it's not like it really matters. If you like the idea of Duck being a rated variant, leave a comment saying "+1" if not, please leave a comment saying "-1" Admins, could you please let me know if you agree to this proposal. *please let the rest of us know if their is.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Timecontrol 5 | 2 Gamerules Sideways Promotion Queen, Bishop, Rook, Knight on the 9th rank Note This is a 3rd iteration of a previously-declined NCV. The first few test games above are from the previous iteration. I tried a few as KOTH, but didn't really like the feel. The change that I decided upon was to add dead pawns as a sort of "cork" in the bottlenecks. It allows for buildup behind the cork without immediate tension with the opponent, and also makes it so that you can have more pawns threatening to enter the bottleneck areas at once by being able to capture. Openings are somewhat limited, but the middlegames and endgames are extremely varied, positional, and strategic. (Also, if this gets accepted, could we make the dead pawns be cork-colored?)
deleted all names how do i change the name?

as on the title we will talk about the variant error Seirawan Chess A game error is that when a player joins the game and plays, it will happen that he places a chancellor or archbishop, when the opponent moves and moves, that piece will return to its original position.
